Chaotic, calculated improvisation. It was how Jean-Michel Basquiat, the legendary Brooklynite artist, created his work. Through a bold sense of color and composition, Basquiat maintained a fine balance between seemingly contradictory forces such as control and spontaneity, menace and wit, urban imagery and primitivism. It’s his brilliant improvisational mindset that we’re celebrating with our Polaroid Now Camera Generation 2 - Basquiat Edition. Featuring his famous artwork, ‘Boy and Dog in a Johnnypump, 1982’, each Now camera is Hydro-dipped, meaning that no two cameras are ever the same. Let Basquiat inspire your photography: get out there and follow your instincts. Improvize. Forget art. Chase life. Compatible with Polaroid i-Type & 600 film in the original Polaroid instant film format.
