LETTER TO THE EDITOR
LIMITED-EDITION PRINTS, AND THE SCARCITY ILLUSION
The battle of photography as art still rages, and has only intensified with digital technology. Before reading “What Does ‘Limited
Edition’ Really Mean?” (July) I was unaware of just how subjective the term “limited edition” was in the photographic industry.
Thanks to the “standard industry practices” brought to light by
author David Walker, we’ve lost a bond of trust. Lawyers, loose
standards and fine print—when it comes to defining “limited editions”—serve only commoditization.
—Emil Walcek
CORRECTIONS:
A caption for a John Moore photo shown in “Top Stories, Told
From Unique Perspectives” (June), incorrectly gave the name of
the family whose possessions were moved out of their foreclosed
home. The possessions belong to the Holzhauer family, not the
Barbiere family.
In the same story, the caption for the Yuri Kozyrev image of rebel
fighters jumping from a statue in Tripoli, Libya, should have stated
the image was taken in 2011, not in 2001.
In “The ‘Like’ List: Favorite Sources for New Photography” (June),
we incorrectly stated that art producer Michelle Chant works at
Wieden & Kennedy in Portland, Oregon. Chant works in the New
York City office of the ad agency.
PDN apologizes for these errors.
