Exemplaire Signé.
Il s’agit de la quatrième monographie de photographies de nu de Renée Jacobs qui perpétue sa tradition de photographie féministe et intrépide de femmes de tous les horizons sexuels.
POLAROIDS présente un reflet élégant et affectueux de femmes sensuellement, pleinement présentes et authentiques. C’est peut-être la collection la plus érotique de l’œuvre de Renée Jacobs à ce jour. Renée Jacobs tourne son regard indiscutablement ludique et affirmatif sur un sujet qui la passionne.
Elle traite ce sujet très moderne avec la forme parfaitement imparfaite du film Polaroid Type 55- une merveille qui n’existe plus et qui fournit un positif étrange, présenté magnifiquement dans une édition limitée de 500 exemplaires, chacune avec une photo C signée et numérotée sur la couverture, avec un dos ouvert cousu à la main.

This is Jacobs’ fourth nudes monograph and carries on her tradition of fearless feminist photography of women across the sexual spectrum. POLAROIDS presents an elegant and loving reflection of unapologetically sensual women, fully present and authentic. This is perhaps the most erotic collection of Jacobs’ work to date. Jacobs turns her unabashedly playful and affirming eye onto a subject she is passionate about. She treats this very modern subject matter with the perfectly imperfect form of the Polaroid Type 55 film- a peel-apart marvel no longer in existence that provides a quirky positive, presented beautifully in a limited edition of 500 copies, each with a signed and numbered tipped in C photograph on the cover, with a handsewn open spine.
