Andy Warhol’s Polaroids
With the invention of the [Polaroid]Big Shot, Warhol finally had the tool he needed to combine his two great loves, celebrity and mass-produced art, and turn them into a money-making machine. Once he developed his process of using the Polaroids to create silk-screened portraits, he immediately embarked on the creation of the artworks that he has become most famous for.
“Andy would have a table stacked with boxes of Polaroids and a couple Big Shot cameras. He would shoot and shoot, saying things like, “Oh! That looks so greeeeaaat.” An assistant would lay the images out on the table. Many dozens would be shot and they would pick one and send it to the screen maker. The sittings back then in the early 1980s were $25,000 each. They were backlogged with clients for months.” – Mark Sink

Bed. The word alone is enough to elicit feelings of pure joy and relaxation. That's exactly the mood Diane von Furstenberg captures in her 1991 book Beds, which features 150 pages of pure bedroom bliss photographed mainly by photographer Stewart O'Shields.
"The bed’s invitation is irresistible: one can never escape the need to sleep for long," von Furstenberg writes. "Sooner or later, the deep pull of this natural cycle wins out and we succumb. It is as natural as the sun and the moon, the cycle of the seasons, life and death.”
"From majestic homes to rustic retreats to enchanted rooms, more than 170 exquisite, original color photographs taken in bedrooms all over the world luxuriously reveal the most intimate element of domestic furniture in our private lives."
Il libro include anche due camere da letto milanesi di Umberto Pasti e Stephan Janson
