Gold Chloride toned Solio (exposed in sunlight) contact print, using Kodak Studio Proof “printing out” paper, now obsolete. Image becomes visible during exposure to sunlight, then is bathed in gold chloride solution which creates the warm brown tones. All figures in these montage-like still life compositions known as “Illusory Arrangements” were torn out of Schoenfeld’s earlier made figure studies. This is a rare print. Only several exist.
In 1977, Illusory Arrangements by Diana Schoenfeld was published as a limited edition original print artist’s book by G. Ray Hawkins Gallery, Los Angeles, CA. The small book contains 15 miniature (3 1/8” x 4 3/16”) gold chloride toned solio contact prints. Because “Female Figure with Leaves and Stones” is an 8"x 10" negative, it was not included in the Illusory Arrangements book. Illusory Arrangements, including “Female Figure with Leaves and Stones,” were exhibited at the following venues:
• Cameraworks Soho Photo Galleries, Los Angeles 1975, where they were reviewed by Henry Seldis (Los Angeles Times, Feb. 20, 1975) as “evocative . . . the female figure presented as part of a greater mystical naturalism.”
• Lampkin Camerawork Gallery, Fairfax, CA
• “Women’s Photography Invitational.” Artemesia Gallery, Northwestern Univ., Evanston, Il, 1975
• “Photo-Collage.” University of Oregon, Eugene, OR, 1977
• “Interior Spaces.” University of California, Davis, 1978 (catalogue)
• “Rhythmic/Illusory/TransitoryArrangements.”Brindl Gallery, Camden, Maine, 1982
