Wolfgang Tillmans. four books
- Four books offers a rare and insightful look into the working process of one of the most influential contemporary photographers.
Rather than presenting a single, closed narrative, this publication reflects Tillmans’ open approach to image-making — where photography is understood as a fluid, evolving language shaped by observation, experimentation, and context.
What you’ll find inside
This boxed set brings together four interconnected volumes, each focusing on different bodies of work and visual strategies. The images move freely between portraiture, still life, abstraction, landscape, and documentary photography. Sequencing, scale, and materiality play a crucial role, revealing how images relate to one another and how meaning emerges through juxtaposition. Spanning several decades, the books offer both iconic works and lesser-known images, carefully edited by the artist himself.
Perfect for
– Readers interested in contemporary art and experimental photography
– Those curious about how photographs function beyond traditional categories
– Collectors and designers seeking inspiration in visual rhythm and image sequencing
– Anyone looking for a thoughtful, non-linear approach to the photobook as an artistic form
