Zine: The Sun Is Glue<\/em> <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PURCHASE THE ZINE<\/a><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marked by a distinctive cyan blue, cyanotypes were invented in 1842 by English polymath John Herschel (1792-1871). A friend of the Herschel family, Anna Atkins (1799-1871), used the process to document botanical and textile specimens. Starting in 1872, the process was commercialized and used to print on fabric, to copy technical drawings and blueprints, and to make banknotes and postage stamps. Artists from 18th century fabric makers to early 20th century Pictorialists, to Late Modernists like Francesca Woodman, Barbara Kasten, David McDermott, and Peter McGough have used cyanotypes in their work, as do a number of contemporary artists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Kolaj Fest New Orleans 2026<\/a>, New Orleans, Louisiana, USA artist Robert A. Schaefer, Jr. organized two workshops where participants learned how to make cyanotypes and lumen prints. Schaefer wrote, the “layering of the images and their colors draw viewers into another dimension of space and time with the impact of inner reflection.” This zine is what the artists made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
