Dear list members,

Our Visual Resources Curator and I are looking for wall-mounted display solutions for our Art Department seminar room. We have a collection of print portfolios that we would like to display in rotation, unframed (and possibly unmatted). The seminar room is not secure, and so we are envisioning shallow (12 inches or less, roughly), locking cases with plexiglas fronts. I’m sure the kind of thing we’re picturing is familiar to a lot of you. Our walls are about 20 feet long, and we’d like as little visual interruption along the wall as possible. Most of the portfolio prints are 22 x 30” or smaller.

We’re seeing a fair number of options online, but we are finding it hard to distinguish between them without seeing them in person. Do you have specific cases with which you are particularly pleased? Do you have any warnings or recommendations about what to look for? 

We would be grateful for any and all help you can offer.

Louise Siddons
