No format in the history of photography captures a moment quite like a Polaroid — and no collection makes that case more compellingly than this one. TASCHEN’s The Polaroid Book draws from the Polaroid Corporation’s own archive of 23,000 images, curated by Edwin Land and Ansel Adams and expanded to include work by David Hockney, Andy Warhol, Jeanloup Sieff, and hundreds more. More than 250 works celebrating a medium that continues to defy the digital age, with an essay by Polaroid’s own Barbara Hitchcock on the history of instant photography.
