Our Platinum Editions category features an original signed, limited edition platinum print by Hank Willis Thomas. The print is offered exclusively to Contact Sheet subscribers for $450. The edition was produced by renowned platinum printer Sal Lopes, and is printed on 100% rag paper. Hank Willis Thomas created the B®anded series as a result of "an exploration and subsequent appropriation of the language of advertising." His work looks at race, class, and history through advertising, focusing predominantly on the use of the African American male body in advertisements in an exploration of the "familiar."

Benefactors Category: Contributors of $1,000 will receive all three prints in our Print Collectors category (Matt Black, Blake Fitch, and Angelika Rinnhofer), one Platinum Editions print by Hank Willis Thomas, and a signed copy of Lisa M. Robinson's book Snowbound. By selecting to participate in this category you will save $350 on the cost of the prints and book, and receive a one-year subscription to Contact Sheet.
