I am working on an exhibit/installation to display a project done by an architect and we would like to cover a large space with "wallpaper" made from prints of over 4000 drawings that went into the design of the project. What is the most effective way to have them printed so that they will be condusive to hanging, i.e what type of paper would work best, what type of adhesive would work best, what type of top protective coat is best, is the risk of the ink bleeding a concern and then also since it is in a gallery what things do we need to be cautious of as far as removal so that the walls are left in good shpae for the next installation? (also the prints will be all black ink background with white line work) sorry for the long list of questions
thanks
lauren

Paper can be 'funny' stuff to work with, especially in the context you want. You want these pictures fastened to a wall(s), and you want them to look their best. For that, I would contact a company that regularly deals with these issues; 4walls.com (http://4walls.com) is a recognized leader. Hope that helps!
