Description: London, Mathews Miller Dunbar, 1972. 16.5 x 12.5 cm. [72] pp. Clothbound with dustjacket. Illustrated in b/w and colour throughout. - Hamilton (1922-2011) began his series Polaroid Portraits in 1968. These small, limited-edition volumes contain one unique Polaroid self-portrait as a frontispiece followed by reproductions of thirty-two Polaroids of Hamilton by his artist friends. The photographers, including John Lennon, Merce Cunningham, Francis Bacon, and Andy Warhol, composed their shots as they wished. Roy Lichtenstein captured Hamilton in front of one of his own Pop paintings, Jasper Johns photographed him on a windy beach, and the British performance artists Gilbert and George posed on either side of Hamilton in their portrayal.
