is a project by artists Roman Schramm and Egbert Haneke.
Selected artists will be invited on a regular basis to realize
their work with the Dye Transfer Process.
The first selection of MAGMA Dye Transfer editions includes artists of different
generations and approaches. This includes among others an experimental picture
from the Estate of Erwin Blumenfeld, an ethnographic photograph of Leonore Mau
as well as a computer-generated image of tomatoes by Timur Si-Qin.
Starting from this basis, the spectrum of MAGMA Dye Transfer Editions will regularly expand.

The Dye Transfer Process
The Dye Transfer Process has a unique position within the photographic color processes.
It stands for high print quality, long lasting permanence, brilliant colors and exceptionally
rich and deep blacks. There are only a few labs worldwide that can realize this particular
method using original materials from KODAK.
MAGMA is working with the Dye Transfer International lab from Hamburg, which has, over the last
few years, established the Dye Transfer Process with exclusively produced new materials that
have been adapted to today’s production processes.
