Using Polaroids was dangerous; it challenged the emerging photography canon, elevated a mass-market tool, banished dependence on a dark room, and enabled artists to create provocative images while maintaining control over their dissemination.

The diverse artists showcased in this exhibition share a common thread—each was inspired by the tactile and instantaneous nature of the Polaroid.

While “Dangerous Polaroids” celebrates the artistry captured within each frame, it also acknowledges the transformative power of technology in the hands of visionary creators.
