Techniques: Lith Printing Technique
Darkroom technique that helps to produce a very special aesthetic. See my anaLoge blog post The Lure of Lith Printing for details.
In the following you’ll find links to photographers and printers who are actively working with this technique (and many others). Please note that following these links you leave my website and enter a new one which I’m not responsible for:
Wolfgang Moersch bzw. Moersch Photochemie: An authority in many techniques including lith printing. The workshop I took in his darkroom in 2012 opened up this technique for me. I’m using his chemistry exclusively. On his web page you’ll find an introduction into lith printing.
Tim Rudman (website not secured): Tim’s books about lith printing are a must. Being written wonderfully, they present theory and examples side-by-side.
Guillaume Zuili: Great printer and photography artist with a very special look and quite some books and exhibitions in his record.
Mike Crawford: Distinguished expert in lith printing and many other techniques - recommended by Tim Rudman to me as one of the very very best. Mike does wonderful projects like Obsolete & Discontinued, which includes works by some of the names mentioned above - and he is working on brillant series like Nocturne.
