Polaroid’s instant photography was a perfect match to his need to registrate his performances. In the early 1970s Ulay embarked on a very personal search for identity, particularly in relation to social issues and areas of tension between men and women. Polaroid was happy to provide unlimited supplies of film and the latest cameras for him to use. Owing to his technical aptitude and knowledge, he soon acquired a name as an expert and consultant in the field. Since then, he has spent much of his artistic career working with a Polaroid camera. Ulay was introduced to Polaroid in the late 1960s, when he moved to Amsterdam. One of his Polaroids is more than 2.5m tall. Ulay (born in Solingen, Germany, 1943) pioneered the use of the Polaroid as an art medium and is widely known for his unusual experiments, such as his ‘Polagrams’, the life-size Polaroids he created by literally ‘stepping into’ a large format camera. It will feature both his early and most recent works, some of which will be on loan from the Rabo Art Collection, our partner in this exhibition, documentary and publication. The Nederlands Fotomuseum is proud to present the work of internationally renowned artist Frank Uwe Laysiepen, known as Ulay, in the first-ever exhibition dedicated solely to his Polaroids.
