The Polaroid Book - Reviews

Page [1]
"Un catalogo di fotografia in formato tascabile, così come sono tascabili le polaroid da cui è composto Il libro infatti raccoglie le migliori istantanee di artisti (ma anche di persone comuni) scattate negli ultimi vent'anni: ne risulta un caleidoscopio di immagini e colori, un puzzle di emozioni e racconti sul mondo, che parlano di viaggi, di ricerca stilistica o di bellezza. Dedicato agli appassionati di foto ma anche a chi ha voglia di sfogliare qualcosa di diverso."

"This interesting little book's only flaw is that it isn't much bigger."
Fashion Magazine, Toronto

“Polaroid has spent the past 50 years amazing a huge collection of images from around the world, now available in this terribly brilliant book. David Hockney, Helmut Newton, Jeanloup Sieff and more more are featured in a tribute to a medium that refuses to surrender to that pesky digital. This is one we really must recommend.”

„Die vorliegende Sammlung zeugt davon, dass das Sofortbildmaterial den Fotografen weder technisch noch kreativ eingeschränkt, sondern über mehr als 50 Jahre zu einem einmaligen, eigenständigen Medium geworden ist.“

„Insofern hat der neue Bildband The Polaroid Book etwas Rührendes: Er zeigt Sofortbilder aus der firmeneigenen Sammlung, die Fotos der letzten 50 Jahre umfasst. Eine Galerie der damals besonders gegenwärtigen Gegenwart; und heute, angesichts allgegenwärtiger Digitaltechnik, schon wieder ein Anachronismus. Es sind in diesem schicken Band renommierte Fotokünstler vertreten, von Ansel Adams über Helmut Newton und Fazal Sheikh bis Andy Warhol."
