Shake It: An Instant History of the Polaroid

Michael Snow Authorization 1969
Shake It: An Instant History of the Polaroid
With the last batch of polaroid film set to expire in October 2009, this exhibition at the Pump House Gallery in Battersea Park captures the aesthetic, conceptual and practical potential of an iconographic photographic format that is on the verge of extinction. The exhibition includes polaroids by Nobuyoshi Araki, Guy Bourdin, Richard Hamilton, David Hockney, Andre Kertesz, Lucas Samaras and Michael Snow and continues until 13 December.
