Since he made the UK his home 20 years ago, Wolfgang Tillmans has redefined both the photographic image and the numerous ways in which it is presented.
In this new exhibition, conceived for the Serpentine Gallery, Tillmans will reflect on his longstanding relationship with London and show both new works made specifically for this show, as well as a range of images from throughout his career.
The exhibition will focus on both the figurative and the abstract in Tillmans’ work, and embrace a broad range of subjects; from unconventional yet intensely eloquent portraits, to large-scale, colour-saturated abstractions that capture the beauty of photography’s chemical processes.
