About the Item

ALBERT WATSON (*1942, Scotland) Kate Moss, Marrakech 1993/2015 Archival pigment from a polaroid negative face mounted to acrylic (Diasec) Sheet 238 x 182.5 cm (93 3/4 x 71 7/8 in.) Frame 239 x 183.5 x 10 cm (94 1/8 x 72 1/4 x 3 7/8 in.) Edition of 3; plus AP 1; AP 1 (last available edition) Framed in artist's black acrylic box Albert Watson (*1942, Scotland) is a Scottish photographer well known for his fashion, celebrity, and art photography, having shot over 200 Vogue and 40 Rolling Stone covers since the mid-1970s. His photographs are signature, classical, and bold, and in our world of manipulation, Watson prefers the enlargers and the trays; an artist who greatly enriches our perception with his unique photographic view. Photo District News named Watson one of the 20 most influential photographers of all time, along with Richard Avedon and Irving Penn, among others. The work ‘Kate Moss, Marrakech’ is part of the 'ROIDS!' Project. With this project Albert Watson – who has been recently awarded an Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II for his lifetime contribution to and achievements in photography – became interested in scanning his Polaroids at a massive resolution. This creates an effect as if you would observe them under a microscope, which shows all their beauty along with all their flaws. Watson is creating a fascinating combination of old technology in the new digital world. By blewing the scan of the Polaroids up to almost 2.5 meters (96 inches), Watson makes their attraction physically perceptible – Nude, Portrait, Woman, Model, Contemporary, Black and White
