That's not really of any help, and I prefer matte paper over gloss or luster.

I'm getting the chance to exhibit my work in a gallery, just wondering what people think is good in terms of mounting. Like card, foam, cramed or non framed, etc.

What kind of photos is it?

But I always thing you should frame it. Use black paper, I think it is the best.

Not entirely sure yet, depends how much wall space I get. This is 100% confirmed, but I'm just making sure I know what to do so I can get everything printed and sorted before I run out of time. I'll ask my sisters boyfriend what he thinks, he'll definitely know.

make sure you check out the gallery's general decor first
then ask them about framing.. if they expect you to use a certain type (black thick frame... thin frame.. deep framed)

i suppose the last thing you would want to happen is throw in an exhibit that looks like it was properly arranged in the gallery.

It's more a club than a gallery, the people that are holding it aren't just organising a gallery event, it's more of a body modification event, with some artwork being shown, along with suspension and the like going on.

hmm in that case tongue.gif go crazy!
heh i would just make sure that whatever you display will flow with the interior of the room.
shouldnt be a problem though since your artwork is crisp.
