That's possible.  The director admitted that he had never seen inkjet 
prints like the ones I showed him.  He had heard of giclee but 
thought that it was something totally different from inkjet.  We 
haven't decided on how they will be mounted.  There is a project 
director, museum curator, and exhibit designer involved in all of the 
decisions.  I'm just an assistant director, photographer, and in 
charge of the printing ;-)  I think I'm going to have to be 
uncharacteristically aggressive to get what I want.

It will open first at the Levine Museum of the New South in Charlotte 
in December, 2006, and is called Families of Abraham.  Hope you can 
come and see it!
