Polaroid works in collaboration with the Museum of Modern Art in New York City to create the special Now Generation 3 MoMA Edition. This is a limited instant camera by the two which is defined by its bold monochrome blue build. The camera is a symbol of art and technology fused into a device in a sense that honors creativity and self expression.
The MoMA logo makes its way on the front display in a bold way. This reinforces the connection to the museum in terms of its artful history. To join the camera, the brand launches three bright wrist straps -- each one is detailed with bold graphic designs to add a dynamic visual.
