The overwhelming tsunami of digital photography has fortunately left some areas untouched within the photographic arts and there are more and more artists who, being dissatisfied with the image creating technologies offered by software engineers, return to analog photography. And once they have decided to take a step back, they actually take two: they experiment with and perfect archaic processes of the past and, through these daguerreotypes, anthrakotypes, cyanotypes, wet-plate collodion process, and other procedures, they show what interests them in our world today. In addition to the incredibly fascinating photos, visitors will also find brief descriptions of the procedures.
