RE: [artshow_photo] Photo Display Racks - What are these? (see photo)

 


Hiya.

1. These are called grid walls... and you can get them in various dimensions, w/ various grid sizes. Their advantages, I've read, are that you can easily enlarge your display by adding more grid panels, which can be purchased separately, or in multiple units. You can angle them differently, thus creating more movement and flow to your display. They tend to be fairly light, and easily transported.

2. People get what they can afford - certainly having a unified background (of almost any color) is preferable to having the eye's journey broken up by lines and jounces of color. But... if this is what you can afford, then... it's what you can afford.

3. You cannot get much less expensive than grid wall units....

I own a flourish trimline set of mesh walls. I like the look, and I like the way the air can freely circulate in my canopy area. The mesh is pretty fine, so it helps provide a more uniform background for my works, but still allows light and air.

Hope this helps!

Light and laughter,
Deb Booth

Subject: [artshow_photo] Photo Display Racks - What are these? (see photo)

Morning everyone, I'm preparing for my art first show and had a couple
of questions for what type of rack to use to display my photos.

I was at an art fair yesterday and took a photo of a very common way to
display photos (see photo here
<http://i1122.photobucket.com/albums/l535/ftjjr/2011-06-11_16-42-28.jpg>
). A couple of questions:

1) What are the vertical wire racks in this photo called? (trade name or
???)
2) Wouldn't it be better to have framed photos against a more solid
background (light colored fabric)?
3) Are there less expensive ways to display photos against a solid
background?
