Luoghi insoliti: dentro la macchinetta delle fototessere

Pubblicato in foto del giorno da circospetto il 17 novembre 2009

Uno sguardo all’interno di uno strumento che Andy Warhol usava spesso:

The Andy Warhol Photo Booth Strip is an example of the Artist’s earliest Photography, a medium that increasingly dominated Andy Warhol’s Art, often a prerequisite to the creation of his important Portrait Paintings. During the early 60′s the Artist created a large body of Silver Gelatin Photobooth Strips.

The Photo Booth represented a quintessentially modern intersection of mass entertainment and private self-contemplation. In Andy Warhol’s Photo Booth Strips, the Sitter could easily adopt a succession of different roles, each captured in a single frame; the resulting strip of four poses resembled a snippet of film footage.
