Holograms 2: A New Exhibition



Following the success of ‘HOLOGRAMS, the first 60 years’, the exhibition I have been touring in the UK for the past couple of years, the Buckinghamshire County Museum in Aylesbury asked me to create a new show for their visitors this summer. http://www.buckscc.gov.uk/bcc/museum/county_museum.page

Drawing further on my collection, I am presenting 70 holograms distributed over two galleries, and a selection of holographic ‘artefacts’ in display cases.

The exhibition runs until the end of October and is then expected to tour to some of the venues that hosted the previous exhibition.

For those unable to visit the show, there is a slide show and some video documentation at http://www.jrholocollection.com/gallery/special/Holograms2/index.html

And for anyone wanting some hands on experience of making holograms, Pearl John http://www.pearljohn.co.uk  will be giving a workshop at the museum on Saturday October 9th.

Cost £12.00 per person. She is also giving a talk and demonstration that evening, followed by refreshments. Tickets £7.50

On September the 29th at 12.30 I will be giving a guided tour of the exhibition so, if any of you can make it, it would be a pleasure to see you.
