8. Iris Prints   Ben Schonzeit´s iris prints are still-lifes, assembled and photographed by him. They are high resolution works of art, digitally generated from photographic transparancies through the use of computers. They offer a dynamic range of color and tonality that far surpasses any print of other digital facilities. Their atmospheric quality is more like a painting than a photograph. Iris prints are becoming increasingly attractive as a new media to contemporary artist - also see Chuck Close´s large b/w iris print of Roy Lichtenstein at his recent exhibition at the MOMA, NYC Ben Schonzeit´s iris prints are published and printed by Laumont Editions with the finest, permanent inks on the best Somerset papers in editions of 2O with 5 A/Ps, signed and numbered by the artist.
