Andy Warhol: Gelatin Silver Photography
From the 1960s to the 1980s, Andy Warhol was seen with his Polaroid camera hanging around his neck so often that it was referred to as his “date.” Over the years, he typically used two types of cameras: a Polaroid and a Minox 35 compact. He employed the 35mm camera in the same way that he used a sketchbook in the 1950s: he made it a part of his visual diary, a means to document his everyday life. For this reason, one might see photographs of city streets, advertisements, and friends at parties taken with Warhol’s 35mm camera and developed as gelatin silver prints. Here, Long-Sharp Gallery presents unique silver gelatin photographs taken by Warhol across the globe, from London to Paris to NYC.
