Starting in 1968, Richard Hamilton asked artists he met to photograph him with a Polaroid camera. Once he had collected 32 photographs, they were published in one volume, the first in 1972. The project ultimately spanned four volumes, with the final volume published in 2001. The project was exhibited in full at Ikon Gallery in 2001.
