Wolfgang

Tillmans

Guest professor

Since the beginning of his career, Wolfgang Tillmans has questioned the possibility of producing images and has infused photography with a new subjectivity. He explores traditional genres such as portraiture, still life, and landscape with a constant interest in the limits of the visible. Issues of existing values and hierarchies are thus raised through a play of associations combining intimacy and social criticism. Through the use of various genres, subjects, techniques, and exhibition concepts, Tillmans broadens conventional approaches to photography and raises fundamental questions related to image creation in an increasingly visually saturated world.
