Instant Light: Tarkovsky Polaroids

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. As New softcover.60 color plates. A concise and deeply personal body of work by one of the most consequential filmmakers of the 20th century. Known for Stalker, Andrei Rublev, and Nostalghia, Tarkovsky developed a cinematic language grounded in duration, memory, and a distinctly Russian poetic tradition. The sixty Polaroids reproduced here?taken between 1979 and 1984 in Russia and during his Italian exile?extend that language into an intimate, immediate form. These are not incidental images but compressed reflections of his filmic sensibility: subdued light, suspended time, and an acute awareness of passage and loss. Edited by Giovanni Chiaramonte in collaboration with Andrei Tarkovsky Jr., the volume frames the work through Tarkovsky's sustained meditation on memory, place, and metaphysical light. The images,portraits of family and collaborators, rural landscapes, interiors, and still life, retain the quiet intensity and temporal suspension that define his cinema. During his exile, Tarkovsky spent significant time in Rome and in the countryside around San Gregorio da Sassola, where he developed and shot Nostalghia in collaboration with Tonino Guerra. The Italy of Nostalghia?thermal baths, rural ruins, fog-laden landscapes?maps closely onto the atmosphere of the Polaroids from this period. With an introduction by Tonino Guerra, who reflects on the images as a fleeting transmission?marked by the melancholy of seeing things for the last time, and the sense of a quiet, personal farewell.
