Wolfgang Tillmans

First, a recent interview with Tillmans in Frieze, which is definitely worth reading:

One of the most memorable exhibitions i saw in Europe this summer was curated by Tillmans at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Some of my favorite shows in recent memory have involved museums allowing artists to curate shows composed of works from the permanent collection (check out Baldessari at the Hirschhorn).





Tegenwoordigheid van Geest / Presence of Mind
A choice from the collection by Wolfgang Tillmans
"The Stedelijk Museum regularly invites artists to present a choice of works from the collection, coloured by their own artistic vision. The presentation is invariably linked to a new acquisition. In this exhibition, German artist Wolfgang Tillmans (b. 1968) expresses his personal view of the collection and simultaneously provides a new and surprising context in which to see his work."
