About Wolfgang Tillmans
In his creative artistic work, Wolfgang Tillmans revolutionized the medium of photography in an unprecedented way. Moreover, he opened it up towards other media. Beginning in the early nineties, Tillmans documented the people and situations in his immediate surroundings in scenes from London, New York, or Berlin. Thus, he created the portrait of a new generation in a style-defining manner. Since the late nineties, Tillmans has been making a greater number of cameraless, abstract images that develop from his direct work with and on photographic paper, some of which acquire a sculptural, object-like character. He has also been developing innovative, anti-hierarchical installations of his photographs in space in exhibition contexts. In conclusion, this catalogue is published on the occasion of an extensive exhibition of Tillmans’s oeuvre at the Fondation Beyeler in Basel and arranges and groups his works in a fresh way.
