The recent sale of the photography collection owned by Polaroid’s inventor Edwin Land to the Viennese photography museum WestLicht marks an art-market trend toward the analog. Beginning in the sixties, Polaroid supplied artists around the world, from Ansel Adams to Andy Warhol, with each one of the imperium’s latest products. In return, 4,400 works by 800 photographers found their way into the company’s International Collection at their European headquarters near Frankfurt am Main. In 2008, when the last instant film factory was rescued from demolition by the company Impossible, the founder’s commitment to collecting could be carried on as well. This publication features selected Polaroid masterpieces and new Impossible instant photography by contemporary artists such as Stefanie Schneider and Nobuyoshi Araki.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; tab-stops: 347.3pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New'\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; tab-stops: 347.3pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Courier New'\"\u003e\u003cFONT size=3\u003eExhibition schedule: WestLicht, Vienna, June 17–August 21, 2011\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874801479944,"sku":"9783775732215","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775732215_fde0ef81-2d5f-49b9-96c7-a092fb1ee607.jpg?v=1744066110","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/16989-from-polaroid-to-impossible","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
