Martson/Hill Walker Evans prints -- technology details?

2006-11-14 by David Wroblewski

Hi all, I saw the UBS display of Walker Evans images by
Martson/Hill this weekend. I was very impressed. Yeah,
I caught the microbanding previously mentioned on a couple 
images; shouldn't have happened. But damn. The sharecropper 
family photo flattened me. It was also fascinating to watch 
other viewers approach it, step closer, reach out to touch 
it.

I've followed the discussions here over the last month but 
having now seen the real thing, I'm curious about the 
technical details behind the prints. I can't find any in 
previous discussions. Did I miss them, or do we not know 
what setup Martson/Hill used? I found their web site, 
but no details there. Pointers or info appreciated.

Thanks, and apologies in advance if I missed the relevant
posts somehow.

David
