Big news coming up for the Instant photography community, which those, who are closely involved, have most likely already heard of – Instant Art expo in Arles in July.
Curated by Stefan Merz, the exhibition hosts 25 artists from 10 countries around the world, from Finland to USA. It showcases a variety of styles, such as architectural photographs by Francesco Sambati, carefully composed nature based photographs by Ina Echternach, strong and colorful nude art by Carmen de Vos, “destroyed” works by Jean-Francois Flamey, nude sceneries by Axakadam and many others.
Each artist has his own individual way of photographing and mastering at the perfection the medium of expired Polaroid Film.
The artworks on view are recent works made in the last few years, shot on old expired Polaroid Film and new available Impossible/Polaroid Originals Film. All photos presented in the exhibition are originals, from the well known format “Type600” Polaroid to the famous “Polaroid 669”, with dimensions variable from 4x5” until 8x10”.
No way we will miss this, so see you 16-22 July in Arles!
