Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Wolfgang Tillmans. Sound is Liquid, by Matthias Michalka and Felicity Scott, delves into Wolfgang Tillmans's artistic practice, which places central importance on observing people, their relationships, and their connections to the world around them.

This exploration of subjective relations and modes of perceiving bodies, images, materials, or surfaces is particularly timely, given the massive shifts prompted by the current health crisis. Issues such as social distancing and the relocation of our everyday interactions into virtual spaces are prompting a reconsideration of these dynamics.

The catalogue offers a reflection on Wolfgang Tillmans' work in the context of these ongoing developments, providing insightful commentary and analysis fit for our times.
