Polidori Robert lot 3 books: Eye & I (2014) - Robert Polidori is known for his large-format photographs of habitats and rooms saturated with the traces of human intervention.

These instantaneous portraits of mutual recognition reveal the photographed subject and the photographer intersecting with each other in a fleeting gaze of mutual regard.
