Producing and Presenting Photographs in the Form of „Newprints“
Bohdan, Vlado ; Mašterová, Katarína
The core of the conservation procedure is in the method for making so-called “new prints” – new analogue photographs – black and white gelatine silver-bromide prints (blow-ups or contact copies) of the original historical negatives. The prerequisite for understanding the procedure is knowledge of dark room work. This original procedure is intended for private collections and institutions which aim to present negatives of a deceased photographer in a way which is as close to the author’s original intention as is currently possible. The procedure was developed on a specific collection of Josef Sudek’s negatives with the topic of reproductions of art works and architecture. Theoretical justification for the procedure, as well as examples of its practical outcomes, are also part of the text.

Identifying Negatives and their Storage Methods Based on Type of Film Support
Cíglerová, Tereza ; Doležalová, Kateřina
The conservation procedure presents the methods of identifying photographic negatives on polymer supports , especially by means of a cellulose nitrate base and cellulose acetate base, and the choice of various techniques on the basis of various factors, such as the collection’s size and physical condition, the workspace’s available equipment, the financial and time availability or the experiences of the identifying persons. For their indisputable informational value, the conservationist approach favors pilot survey which provides the initial idea about the collection’s material and physical composition and then helps with the choice of identification methods applied during the research phase. In the second part, the methodology focuses on the issues associated with long-term storage of the negatives and compares their recommended standards with the actual means at the disposal of minor institutions. It also proposes fitting, or at least acceptable, solutions.
