This event has ended.

This exhibition will present new and recent work by Wolfgang Tillmans, marking the artist’s third solo show with David Zwirner. It follows his exhibition at the gallery’s Hong Kong location earlier this year, and his 2015 show, PCR, in New York.

Few artists have shaped the scope of contemporary art and influenced a younger generation more than Tillmans. Since the early 1990s, his works have epitomized a new kind of subjectivity in photography, pairing intimacy and playfulness with social critique and the persistent questioning of existing values and hierarchies. Through his seamless integration of genres, subjects, techniques, and exhibition strategies, he has expanded conventional ways of approaching the medium and his practice continues to address the fundamental question of what it means to create pictures in an increasingly image-saturated world.
