Christopher Burkett (b. 1951)
Cottonwood and Light, n.d.
Cibachrome print
Christopher Burkett has labored for over three decades to create what many regard as the most impeccable and luminous color prints in the history of photography. Devoted to personally hand printing each of his 8x10 and Hasselblad transparencies on the now-discontinued Swiss Cibachrome photographic paper, Burkett has produced some of the most archival, as well as the largest and highest resolution color photographs ever created by a photographer's own hand, using exclusively film and without modern computer technology. |
