Workshop: Polaroid Photography

Description

In conjunction with our special exhibition The Subversive Eye: Surrealist and Experimental Photography from the David Raymond Collection we invite you to join us for a fantastic evening of polaroid photography with aficionado Lance Rothstein.

Lance will bring a table full of Polaroid cameras from his personal collection and guide you through the fun process of creating Polaroid pictures. He’ll discuss the history of Polaroid, show examples from famous photographers and share images from his tour of the Polaroid Factory in the Netherlands.

Each participant will be provided with an instant camera to borrow and one pack of instant film. After a brief instructional session on how to get the best results from your camera and film, along with some creative tips, you’ll have about 40 minutes to take photos on a guided photo walk outside and around the Museum’s first floor, with advice available if needed. Digital photos can also be turned into real Polaroid pictures using Instant Labs. Afterward, we’ll return to the room to share our images and discuss the experience.
