Dye-transfer is a full-color photographic print process favored by American photographer William Eggleston. In this video, Eggelston’s long-time collaborators, renowned dye-transfer specialists Guy Stricherz and Irene Malli give a step-by-step tutorial of the technique behind creating a Dye-Transfer print.
Guy Stricherz and Irene Malli have printed Eggleston’s works for the last twenty-five years. Eggleston’s discovery of the dye-transfer process in the 1970s was crucial to his move from primarily working in black-and-white to producing color photographs.
This film was produced on the occasion of William Eggleston: The Last Dyes, on view at David Zwirner Los Angeles from November 16th, 2024 to February 1st, 2025.
