Platinotype: Making Photographs in Platinum and Palladium with the Contemporary Printingout Process describes the mechanisms and chemistry of platinum/palladium printing in safe and practical ways. Clearly presented formulae allow the printer to work with platinum, palladium, or varying combinations of both. The printedout image appears fully during exposure, and only requires simple and safe steps for clearing to a stable, archival state.The authors explain what makes the image, how all necessary components are prepared and used, and the kind of paper and negative needed to make prints. More than just a technical manual, the book underscores the authors' belief that printing is a creative, scientific, and philosophic way of working. The book presents an outstanding collection of prints by over 40 artists, all made with this printingout process. The artists' notes and comments offer insights into their methods and thinking, and a large number of fullpage reproductions serve as a valuable reference for the aspiring printer.The book includes:A list of supplies and equipmentA detailed chemical glossaryA Quickstart section in the PrefaceSummary sheets and workflows for each step of the processInstructions for making traditional negatives with Pyro PMK and digital negativesExplanation of the chemistry and dynamics of paper, and how to use buffered papersInstructions for controlling hydration processes and humidityInstructions for preparing each chemical solution needed for the processDiscussion about the aesthetics of the platinum/palladium printExplanation of the relationships between light, image, and expressionA detailed troubleshooting listRecommendations from conservators about processing, handling, and conservationContemporary artists using the printingout platinum/palladium process.Learning how to make platinum/palladium prints has been cloaked in a mystique of difficulty.
