Chemigram
A chemigram (from "chemistry" and ''gramma'', Greek for "things written") is an experimental art where a photographic image made by painting on a light-sensitive paper (such as photographic paper). The result resembles a watercolor painting.
Chemigrams were invented in the 1950s by Belgian artist Pierre Cordier.
==History==
Johann Schulze is regarded as the first to obtain a chemigram-like image; in 1725, he produced such a work using opaque paper and a bottle of silver salts. Hippolyte Bayard produced another chemigram-like image during sensitization tests he conducted in 1839. In the 1930s and 1940s, the German Edmund Kesting and the French Maurice Tabard produced pictures by painting with developer and fixer on photographic paper. It is the Belgian artist Pierre Cordier (born 1933), however, who has been most responsible for developing and exploring chemigrams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Pierre Cordier )〕 From his early days, in 1956, he was one of its rare practitioners, and contributed to its development by expanding its technical and esthetic possibilities. He adopted the name ''chimigramme'' in French in 1958 (''chemigram'' in English and Dutch, ''Chemigramm'' in German, ''chimigramma'' in Italian, and ''quimigrama'' in Spanish and Portuguese), the most widely accepted designation today.〔Alternative photographer Mark D. Roberts has advanced the process by incorporating actual photographs in the chemigram while exploring such topics as lost manuscripts and his body of work entitled "Vanished" which deals with the Holocaust.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Online Gallery of Mark Roberts and Denise Rouleau )〕
