Presentation of Prints and their Framing
This should be the right place to ask the question.....
Our Photo Club has an annual exhibition in the local library - we had a little over 100 people in the for opening night and it's on for the month.
A local well-respected member of the arts community (who also dabbles in photography) called in, on her own, and has mentioned, in an email, that she enjoyed the show but said that "If I had to choose a general weakness of the show, it would be either 'under' or 'inappropriate' presentation". She didn't explain further, but I believe she's referring to frames and mattes. I don't always agree with her comments when she occasionally comes along to, as I see it, pontificate on our work but..... maybe she has a point.
I don't think we have a member who is trained in graphics etc so I'd like to find a good reference - preferably online - that I can use to pass on to members. I must say, when I choose frames and mattes, I stick to the simplest I can find, usually in black. But maybe there's some full guidance out there somewhere?
