For his artist's book, Wolfgang Tillmans turned to the printing press with great pleasure and creativity, adding ink to the rollers himself and creating abstract forms on both sides of register sheets used during the printing of his book Abstract Pictures. The resulting doubling, smudging, and layering of images are also featured on the cover of the clothbound artist's book that was created from these sheets and assembled by hand—fascinating one-of-a-kind objects, none of which are exactly alike.
Produktinformation Deutsch
Mit viel Freude und Kreativität hat sich Wolfgang Tillmans für sein Künstlerbuch selbst an die Druckmaschine begeben: Eigenhändig trug er Druckfarbe auf die Walzen auf und ließ damit Formen auf Vorder- und Rückseiten den Einrichtebögen für sein Buch Abstract Pictures entstehen. Die sich so ergebenden Doppelungen, Verwischungen und Überlagerungen verzieren auch den Einband der in Leinen gebundenen Künstlerbücher, die aus diesen Bögen handgebunden wurden – faszinierende Unikate, von denen keines dem anderen gleicht.
