Wolfgang Tillmans has always been a photo journalist in the classical sense, but sharing an eagerness of experimentation and innovation at the same time. His new book published by Taschen Verlag shows a new phase of work, and the title “Neue Welt” gives a simple reason to expect that — more image-making, or as he puts it: “…trying out what the camera can do for me, what I can do for it (…) My travels are aimless as such, not looking for predetermined results, but hoping to find subject matter that in some way or other speaks about the time I’m in.”
The exhibition “Wolfgang Tillmans. Neue Welt / Wolfgang Tillmans. New World” will be on show at the Kunsthalle in Zurich from 1 September to 4 November 2012.
