Stephen Shore's Factory: Andy Warhol. KISS directed by Andy Warhol. Andy Warhol's 85 Polaroid Portraits: Mick Jagger, Yoko Ono, O.J. Simpson & Many Others (1970-1987) Polaroid photography, which looked about to fade out forever for a while there, has in recent years made a comeback.
Chalk it up, if you must, to a grand revaluing wave of the physically analog in our age of digital ephemerality — the same tide on which enthusiasm for vinyl, zines, and even VHS tapes has risen again. But we must acknowledge that Andy Warhol, in a sense, got there first. It hardly counts as the only matter on which the mastermind of the Factory showed prescience; take, for instance, his quip about everyone in the future getting fifteen minutes of fame, a prediction which, as Jonathan Lethem put it, has in our present hardened into “drab processional.” Some of these very 21st-century people now enjoying (or enduring) their own fifteen minutes — most of them presumably not even born within Warhol’s lifetime — surely keep a Polaroid camera at hand. You can see at least 85 of Warhol’s polaroid portraits at a site called These Americans. Related Content: Andy Warhol with “Flowers” in flowers, New York.
