The Little-Known Polaroids of Paris, Texas Cinematographer Robby Müller

This was also true of the many photographs Müller captured throughout his life – an important, albeit lesser-known facet of his work. Next month, a new exhibition of his Polaroid works will open in Arles, to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the famed, allowing a deeper understanding of the inimitable imagemaker’s practice one year after his death. “Robby was always taking pictures,” Andrea Müller-Schirmer, the cinematographer’s wife and curator of the exhibition, tells AnOther.

For Müller-Schirmer, it was this factor that made the Polaroids the most logical starting point in the exhibiting of her husband’s photographic output. “And because they’re incredibly beautiful,” she says. “Often Polaroids fade and go a greenish colour over time, but the colours in Robby’s pictures have stayed so strong. I think it’s because he kept them in the dark, like drawings – but only for himself.

Elsewhere, still lifes of such mundane objects as a pink shirt or simple stove kettle are imbued with an otherworldly charm by the light which infuses them. As Jim Jarmusch says of Müller inClaire Pijman’s 2018 documentary homage to the DoP, “it’s about the variations of daily details and Robby’s incredible brilliance as a person is appreciating the details”. This likewise applies to the myriad photographs of nature included in the show, most of which have not been seen before.

Paris -Texas is one of my favourite films ever.
