NEW Experimental Products at CAA 2008!

The GOLDEN Custom Lab will be introducing five new Experimental Products at the College Art Association Annual Conference (Booths #504 and #506) from February 20-23 in Dallas-Forth Worth. GOLDEN Experimental Products are a series of limited-production, custom materials made available to the professional artist wishing to engage in experimentation and push the technical boundaries of their work with developmental materials.  Although availability is limited, all GOLDEN Experimental Products have passed the basic requirements for freeze/thaw and shelf stability, permanency, adhesion testing to standard products, and general compatibility with other GOLDEN brand products.  We believe these products are suitable for fine art use, however, we consider them experimental because proof of long-term performance, lot-to-lot consistency, and reliable availability still need to be established.  Therefore, as with all new materials, testing for your application is highly suggested prior to use in actual artwork.

Products being introduced this year will include a new Silverpoint Ground and four new gels that we could only call "Eccentric Gels" for their very unusual rheologies, consistencies and handling properties.  Meet with Mark Golden or GOLDEN Technical Staff at our tradeshow booth to discuss these new innovative products as well as any unique material needs you may have.
