Red House Painters’ Photographs (1987-1994)

Friday, May 6th, 2011

A small collection of fibre based  photographs hand-printed by me between 1987-1994 and used on the covers of the Red  House Painters’ LP’s, are now offered for sale.. Unless stated in the image caption these prints are not editioned they are  one-off or work prints made over a period of time – often a prelude to an artwork print for a specific album sleeve. Each print is stamped, titled, signed and dated on the reverse. A full print description is given under each image including the price which varies. Shipping is extra and is priced according to country of destination. Payment can be via paypal or a UK cheque. Image colour may vary slightly from scanned JPEG reference as the latter are viewed on a back lit LED screen. Please email to simonlarbalestier@me.com for further info. Higher resolution files can be sent for more critical viewing if required. Please note prices do not not include shipping and all prints are shipped from the UK.

Friday, May 6th, 2011

The Attracting to Emptiness Series: 1997-1999 is a collection of photographs shot in Tuscany and Le Marche, Italy. The series explores the transient beauty found in abandoned buildings evoking a sense of private, personal loss and memory. The images were made with Leica M and Plaubel Makina 670 rangefinder cameras. The Attracting to Emptiness Series: 1997-1999 are artist’s proofsmade on a paper now discontinued; Kentmere’s Kentona (glossy) silver gelatin Baryt paper. The Limited Edition set is in the pipeline and this will be on the Czech Republic paper Foma Baryt paper, though the colours will differ to these you see now as the paper responds quite differently in dilute lith developer. The price rises as the edition numbers rise.

Higher resolution images are available for viewing. Please email to simonlarbalestier@me.com. Prices do not not include shipping and all prints are shipped from the UK.
