Installation:
NUDES, (pigmented ink on canvas), prints for display only-not
for sale.
These
prints are installed with the top edge at 89inches from the
floor.
THE
PROCEDURE IS DESIGNED SO THAT THE IMAGE AREA IS NEVER TOUCHED.
THE BLACK WILL SHOW SCUFF MARKS WITH THE SLIGHTEST CONTACT.
1)
Remove tape from glassine, peeling the tape from the overlapped
area towards the rolled area of the glassine. This prevents
tearing the glassine.
2) Unroll glassine so that the top edge of the canvas is exposed
and the glassine is facing towards
you.
3) Push the roll against the wall, to stabilize, and pin the
top corners making certain that print edge is horzontal.
4) Tape the glassine to the wall at the points that have tape
on the glassine itself.
5) Unroll the print keeping a little pressure with the wall
so that the image is coverred by the glassine.
DO NOT TOUCH THE IMAGE SURFACE.
6) Once you unroll the package and you arrive at the bottom
of the print, roll the glassine, keeping a little pressure
with the wall until you arrive at the taped area.
7) Remove the tape from the glassine, peeling from the glassine
towards the wall. This prevents tearing the glassine.
8) You can now pin the top of the print in the demarcated
holes.
9) Pull the print from the bottom edge to gently stretch the
print and pin the center hole. 10)
Pull the bottom corners of the print to gently stretch sideways
and pin through designated holes.
11) Pin through the remaining 2 holes.
12) Place the glassine roll on a smooth surface and gently
nudge the roll to make it more aligned with the core. Store
the core in its tube and seal with the caps.
Deinstallation:
1) Remove pins from the bottom edge. You might need a needlenose
pliers.
2) Unroll the glassine so that the 2 pieces of tape are showing.
The unrolled glassine should be
towards you.
3) Place the roll of glassine against the print MAKING SURE
THAT YOU DON’T TOUCH THE IMAGE SURFACE.
4) You should be able to see some canvas above the roll of
glassine.
5) Tape the glassine to the wall at the taped points.
6) Unroll the glassine.
7) Remove the tape from the wall so that you center the glassine
on the canvas and align the bottom edges of the glassine and
canvas.
8) Placing the core so that it is parallel to bottom edge
of the image, begin to roll up the print keeping a little
pressure with the wall.
9) If the print begins to wind on unevenly, then unroll and
begin again attempting to make the core as even with the edge
of the image as possible.
10) Once the pint is on the core and at the top, remove the
pins and remove the tape from the glassine.
11) Continue winding on until the glassine is completely wound.
12) By placing the roll on a smooth surface you can gently
nudge the print to align the roll with the core.
