Alan Blazar, the founder of Blazing Editions, has more than 25 years experience in the visual and graphic arts-as a photographer, pre-press technician and executive. In 1984 he founded his own photography, design, pre-press and printing company, combining many of the disciplines of graphic arts production under one roof. He became known for pioneering the use of many emerging technologies such as waterless printing, stochastic screening and digital photography. He started experimenting with the giclée process on his own photographs in 1994. He quickly realized the vast potential -both aesthetic and commercial- of the revolutionary medium, and founded Blazing Editions. Mr. Blazar earned his B.A. from University of Rhode Island and went on to attend Rhode Island School of Design in printmaking. His photographs and giclées hang in many corporate and private collections of contemporary art. Bruce Kennedy, Studio Manager for Blazing Editions, supervises scanning, proofing, and color quality He has over 25 year experience in black and white and color photographic printing and retouching. He has logged over 20,000 hours on electronic imaging equipment and on Photoshop.® He has an exceptional talent for getting the optimum fidelity from the broad color gamut of the giclée mediun. This he owes in part to his lifelong passion (compulsion) for pushing the limits of visual perception. Bruce earned his B.F.A. in architecture from the Rhode Island School of Design. |
