The UK artist Miles Aldridge, known for his technicolour highly stylised mise-en-scènes, is taking polaroid pictures of members of the public—and well known artists such as Maurizio Cattelan. Aldridge has created a specially designed set in Sotheby’s galleries in New Bond Street, complete with props—feather boas, tea cups, retro telephones—that participants can try on and try out while posing for the polaroid pic session à la Andy Warhol. Priced at £150 per image, Aldridge will donate a portion of the funds to The Elton John Aids Foundation.
