Polaroids by Philip-Lorca diCorcia at LACMA

When Polaroid announced that it was getting out of the Polaroid business earlier this year, many photographers, including myself, felt a deep loss of a very unique medium whose practitioners included some of the most influential image makers of our time. Among them is Philip-Lorca diCorcia, an American art photographer who creates images that alternate between found moments and staged theater.

In the video below, diCorcia talks about his Polaroid photographs from his show titled, Thousand, on exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art until September 14th.
