Thought this might be of interest since it discusses getting rid of the term "giclée" from the guys who started it all. Only first few paragraphs of interview here with URL to entire interview at bottom of this post. Also talks about new Epson paper. ____________________________________________ Here are excerpts from an exclusive interview Royce Bair, editor of Inkjet NEWS & Tips, had with R. Mac Holbert of Nash Editions on October 31. <http://www.nasheditions.com/>. (In 1990, Mac Holbert and Graham Nash pioneered the use of the IRIS 3047 Graphics Printer as an output device for making digital fine art prints. One of their early print makers, Jack Duganne, was the first to coin the term "giclée" for inkjet prints, back in 1991 <http://www.dpandi.com/giclee/giclee.html>. Today, Nash Editions use several Epson 9600's and only one IRIS. Their clients include Robert Farber, Milton Greene, Douglas Kirkland, Winston Smith and Charles Wolfe, just to name a few.): ROYCE: Mac, you recently told me that the term "giclée" is starting to lose popularity in our market? MAC: The term "Giclée" is starting to fall out of use in the fine art market, at least among the fine art museums. It is still being used very much in the "executive" art market. I'm currently working with several museums to come up with a correct terminology. It's very much like what they did with color photography years ago, bringing out the term "chromogenic prints". _______________________________________________ see the rest of the interview at: http://www.inkjetart.com/news/archive/IJN_11-20-03.html scShaw Atlanta
