RE: [Digital BW] OT: What to call the prints...

2003-04-28 by Seth Rossman

Jeff- 

Alan is right.  And, I agree about the Giclee, but for a show it a
commonly known term.

This has been battered ad nauseum at DigitalFineArt and other sites.

I am with Alan for call it what it is: Pigment on Fine Art Paper, or any
combination. 
If there will be a lot of "culturets" there, the snootier sounding the
better.

Ain't marketing grand?
