The publication includes essays by Julie Ault, Daniel Birnbaum, and Joachim Jäger and accompanies one of the most significant institutional presentations of Tillmans' work in Germany during the 2000s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book was edited and designed by Tillmans himself, in collaboration with Karl Kolbitz and Federico Martelli. As throughout his publishing practice, the sequencing and layout function as an extension of the work itself: photographs of radically different scales, subjects, and periods are placed in dialogue, reproducing the associative and non-hierarchical logic of his installations. Portraiture, abstraction, still life, documentary photography, and images of everyday life coexist without a fixed distinction between photographic genres.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe exhibition took its title from Tillmans' \u003cem\u003eLighter\u003c\/em\u003e works, photographic sheets folded and presented as sculptural objects. These works transform photographic paper into spatial forms, allowing light, shadow, reflection, and the physical properties of the photographic surface to become part of the image. The catalogue similarly treats the photograph as both image and material object.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSet in Garamond and printed on Galaxi Supermat 170 g paper by Dr. Cantz'sche Druckerei in Ostfildern, the bilingual English\/German edition reflects Tillmans' longstanding interest in the book as an autonomous medium rather than simply an exhibition record.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNow out of print, \u003cem\u003eLighter\u003c\/em\u003e is an important document of Tillmans' practice during a period in which his work increasingly moved between photography, installation, abstraction, and material experimentation, while continuing to challenge conventional hierarchies between art photography and images drawn from everyday life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"wolfgang tillmans","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67706476265760,"sku":null,"price":7000.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0878\/0202\/0128\/files\/wolfgang-tillmans-lighter-2008-cover-intermission.jpg?v=1791496171","url":"https:\/\/intermissionbooks.com\/products\/wolfgang-tillmans-lighter-2008","provider":"intermission books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
