Published by IDEA in 2020, Polaroids is the second volume to emerge from the archive of the late Davide Sorrenti (1976–1997), the Italian American photographer whose short life and raw vision became emblematic of 1990s youth culture, fashion, and underground aesthetics.
Curated by his mother, Francesca Sorrenti, the book presents an intimate selection of Davide’s personal Polaroid photographs, which capture fleeting, candid moments of friends, lovers, and the fashion world that surrounded him. More than just casual snapshots, these Polaroids reveal Davide’s unfiltered eye for beauty, vulnerability, and rebellion the very qualities that made his work resonate beyond his years.
This edition stands as a poignant continuation of the effort to preserve and celebrate his archive, following the release of ArgueSKE (2019). It not only serves as a memorial to his life and tragic early passing at the age of 20, but also as a testament to his enduring influence on photography, fashion, and visual culture.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.

Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
