Andy Warhol took a lot of Polaroid photos in his day. The reason a lot of source photos for his screenprint portraits can’t be found is because he took the source photos himself! Oh my goodness. Here’s a show of some other oddities collected in a set called “Still-Life Polaroids” and was last exhibited at The Paul Kasmin Gallery in early 2009. Now they’re floating all around, who knows where they are? Idunno. There’s a certain quality about these photos that cannot be captured by any other person but Warhol himself. These are fine art. They belong in a museum. They have power living inside them that can never be replicated. Godly. Insane. Blasted with light.

Take a look at the rest of the posts we’ve got here on WFDJ – they’re mostly references to his work, but a couple of them are based in this Polaroid world again. You’ll see.

You’ll all see.
