Tom Baril :: Polaroid Type 55 Works
Tom Baril was born in Connecticut, attended the School of Visual Arts in New York and spent over 15 years working as a printer for Robert Mapplethorpe. After his tenure with Mapplethorpe, Baril went out on his own becoming best known for his still life table shots of flowers and fruits across a range of mediums from collodion to Polaroid Type 55 to silver gelatin.\n\n\t\t\t\t\tIn this video, I want to talk about his first, self-titled monograph which concentraits mainly on Baril's work with Polaroid Type 55. In this body of work, Baril shows a range of techniques including solarization and pinhole. His printing skills are exceptional as well. Most of these images display a beautiful sepia as the result of tea toning.\n\n\t\t\t\t\tBooks:\n\t\t\t\t\tTom Baril - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0965745007/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=0965745007&linkCode=as2&tag=thepublbroa-20&linkId=5C4WLOPDQ7M2KEIS\n\t\t\t\t\tBotanica - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/189204126X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=189204126X&linkCode=as2&tag=thepublbroa-20&linkId=CJV2YEYUFLVYPW6M\n\n\t\t\t\t\tOfficial Site:\n\t\t\t\t\thttp://tombaril.net\n\n\t\t\t\t\tKoch Gallery\n\t\t\t\t\thttp://www.kochgallery.com/artists/contemporary/baril/\n\n\t\t\t\t\tWinston W\xe4chter Fine Art\n\t\t\t\t\thttp://seattle.winstonwachter.com/artist/baril-tom/\n\n\t\t\t\t\tTwitter: http://twitter.com/tedforbes\n\t\t\t\t\tInstagram: http://instagram.com/tedforbes\n\t\t\t\t\tFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/aop.podcast\n\t\t\t\t\tPinterest: http://pinterest.com/tedforbes\n\t\t\t\t\tWebsite: http://theartofphotography.tv
