DASH SNOW: POLAROIDS
Peres Projects, 2009, First edition, 280 pp., 11 1/4" X 11 1/4", Softcover
As new (still in publisher's shrink wrap)
This first comprehensive survey of Dash Snow's Polaroid photography chronicles the artist's early marauding on Manhattan's Lower East Side and conveys Snow's love of the photograph as memento. The joy and abandon of hard partying are converted by his Polaroid camera into powerful images that embrace the transience of the euphoric moment. All images are reproduced both fully-bled and actual size, as "objects," against a black background.
