Stefanie Schneider’s work echoes the heart of American art, channeling the cinematic nostalgia of Ed Ruscha’s roadscapes, the stark sensuality of Georgia O’Keeffe’s deserts, and the haunting solitude of Edward Hopper’s paintings. It’s remarkable how a German-born artist has become such a vital voice in the American story of the 20th and 21st centuries.
"I’ll never forget the first time I saw Stefanie Schneider’s work. It was in a gallery in Hamburg, and I was instantly captivated. Her images had a magnetic pull—intimate, raw, and otherworldly. It felt like falling in love at first sight. Her work didn’t just hold my attention; it changed something in me.
What Stefanie does with Polaroid film is extraordinary. She’s not just capturing moments—she’s crafting dreamscapes. Her art transforms the imperfections of expired Polaroid film into something ethereal, elevating a once-utilitarian medium into the realm of fine art. No one has pushed the boundaries of Polaroid like Stefanie has. She’s redefined its potential, proving that it’s not just a tool for memory but a canvas for profound creative expression.
Her impact goes beyond art—it’s deeply personal. Years ago, when Polaroid production was on the brink of being shut down, I was ready to walk away from the fight to save it. Then I saw Stefanie’s work. Her images reminded me why Polaroid mattered—not just as an invention, but as a medium that captures emotion like nothing else. Her vision reignited my own, and I knew we couldn’t let Polaroid disappear.
When I met Stefanie, I learned that her Polaroid images are part of an even bigger vision: a feature-length film called 29 Palms, CA, made almost entirely from Polaroid materials. It’s an audacious, unprecedented project—the largest Polaroid art initiative ever attempted. To support her vision, we scoured the world for expired Polaroid film. In turn, Stefanie entrusted us with a collection of her extraordinary limited-edition prints for our gallery, Polanoir.
That gallery became the foundation for The Impossible Project, our mission to save Polaroid film from extinction. Many called it a lost cause—that saving Polaroid was, quite literally, impossible. But Stefanie’s work showed us otherwise. Her ability to turn the fleeting and fragile into something timeless reminded us that the impossible is often just waiting for someone brave enough to try.
Today, Polaroid film is still alive, thanks in large part to Stefanie’s inspiration. Her art continues to thrive, touching hearts and captivating imaginations worldwide. She didn’t just save a film stock—she preserved a piece of cultural history, ensuring that future generations can experience the enigmatic magic of Polaroid.
Stefanie Schneider changed the way I see the world. She’s a visionary who has transformed a medium, a movement, and countless lives—including mine. For that, I’ll always be grateful."

Just the Three of Us
By Antoine Rose
Located in New York, NY
By hanging out of a helicopter hovering 300 feet in the air, Antoine Rose uniquely captures the Hamptons from a sharp 90 degree angle. This piece is a snapshot of shared beach activities that features colorful accessories and gorgeous blue-green water as it crashes on the shore.
Antoine Rose’s love for the sea led him to become official photographer of the Kitesurfing World Cup in 2002 for several consecutive years. Rose admits, “Shooting from helicopters, all doors removed, 300 feet above earth at 20 knots and getting images that can be printed as large as 120 inches is quite a challenge. What’s difficult is to mix all the tasks in real time: guiding the pilot, having the right lens, being sure the camera settings are setup properly, concentrating on the light, the subject, the framing, discussing with the tower control to get clearance…” Rose continued to travel around the globe from South Africa to Istanbul, converting ordinary scenes into magnificent pieces of art – whether they be the shorelines of Miami and Hampton Beach “Up in the Air” or the mountaintops of Switzerland “Jeux D’Hiver”. In Rose’s most recent collection “Dawn to Dusk,” illuminated cityscapes of the Manhattan skyline are captured beneath darkness. Thus, oblige viewers to a closer look, distinguishing the artist’s pictorial subject from its aerial veneer; brilliant skyscrapers manifest embellished microchips against an unlit backdrop.
