Color Pigment Prints

[David A. Goldfarb]

Anyone know what's become of Ataraxia? I just looked at their website, and they say they've closed.

I don't have any specifics as to when they closed their doors for good, but they quit making pigment prints quite some while ago, at least a year or more ago as I recall. I think they originally had a problem with the supply of the materials, such as the color tissue and various bases, and may have had a problem in actually making the prints. Plus, the archival quality of pigment prints made on inkjet printers must have certainly cut deeply into the market.

I have a fairly large book on Paul Outerbridge, one of the color/caron pioneers. I will try to get my list in the book exchange tonight.

That's unfortunate.
