Wolfgang Tillmans

Wolfgang Tillmans’s artistic practice attributes central importance to the observation of people, their relationship to one another, and their connection to the things around them. These subjective relations and modes of perceiving bodies, images, materials, or surfaces are undergoing massive shifts in light of the current health crisis, calls for social distancing, and the relocation of our everyday life and interaction into virtual space. The mumok exhibition catalog reflects on Wolfgang Tillmans' work against the backdrop of these developments. In addition to a comprehensive series of images compiled by the artist, it contains detailed essays by international theorists George T. Baker, Diedrich Diederichsen, Elisabeth Lebovici, and Felicity Scott.
