The exhibition includes work by many of the formost hologram artists and other key innovators in the field - milestones from holographic history - along with some of the latest technical developments.

"In holography, our age is still the pioneering age, and the 1980's and 90's are the first age of holographic excellence. The artists who have chosen to work in the new medium are explorers that in later times will be accorded the same interest as Fox Talbot, Roger Fenton and Camille Silvy."

2010- 2011

Arts Council England commissioned Axis to curate an exhibition on the first floor of its national office at Great Peter Street in London. Using the Axis website Arts Council England staff selected nine works which were installed in July 2010.

Axis aimed to reflect the diversity of work being produced around the country and selected 9 artists from their online arts directory.

Arts Council staff were asked to curate the exhibition by selecting artworks from each of the nine English regions. The selected was installed for 17 months at the Council's Great Peter Street London headquarters.

The piece selected by Axis and the Arts Council staff, from Andrew Pepper, was Cut Column, a laser-cut 'drawing' based on an earlier holographic monoprint, “Centre Column”, produced in 1989 and now held in the Lauk Collection, Germany.

Artist David Sandum sent out a “Call for participation”  via his Twitter followers asking them to donate postcard sized work for an international exhibition he organised at the Moss Public Library, Norway.

260 artists from 24 countries took part.

Each artist sent an original 7″ x 5″ postcard.

Andrew Pepper submitted a laser-cut gestural 'drawn' image in two columns (second row, left image - image from the Moss Public Library Flickr account).

Postcard was sold for 200kr ($32.00) each and raised a total of $3,500.00.

All proceeds from the sale of the works on display were used to help with purchasing children’s books for the library, which had it’s funding cut during 2011.

Money raised form the exhibition helped to purchase 221 new children's books.
