Artists working in 3D:

Vladimir makes Vladmasters.  She also has performances.  A Vladmaster performance is a simultaneous Vladmaster experience. Every attendee is given a viewer and set of disks and then led through the story by a soundtrack featuring music, narration, sound effects, and ding noises to cue the change from image to image. The CLACK of hundreds of viewers turning simultaneously fills the air. Mass euphoria ensues.

Florence Thomas was an Oregon scluptor who was employed by View Master to create and photograph many clay scenes and dioramas of fairy tales, nursery rhymes, comic strips, and other popular childrens stories.  The techniques she developed have been put into use by many major motion picture studios.

Georgette Freeman made “contemporary stereo cards” from 1995 to 2002.  Her stereo cards utilize the blank back of the card to put the card in “context” where she creates narratives for the work.  She continues to teach classes at the San Francisco Center for the Book.
