Editing Helmut Newton (section)

==Polaroids==
From the 1970s, Newton regularly used [[Polaroid Corporation|Polaroid]] [[instant camera]]s and film to get an immediate visualisation of composition and lighting, especially for his fashion photography. By his own admission, for the shoot of the "Naked and Dressed" series that started in 1981 for the Italian and French Vogue, he used Polaroid film “by the crate”. The Polaroids also served as a sketchbook, in which he scribbled notes with regard to the model, client, location and date. In 1992, Newton published Pola Woman, a book consisting only of his Polaroids. Over 300 works based on the original Polaroids were shown at 2011 exhibition, “Helmut Newton Polaroids”, at the Museum für Fotografie in Berlin.<ref name="R12"/>
