this is london“Vast pale surfaces shimmer with delicate patterns...” Tillmans is an innovator who explores and savours the world around him, experiments with production processes — he still prints his own work — and creates some magnificent imagery.

Guardian“These minimalist works are undeniably beautiful...” He is drawing your attention to the making, and viewing, of photographic images more than the things they depict. This is a subtle and complex enterprise, but not without its risks.

The Independent“It is an excellent show, one of the best this summer...” The aim, though, is not to imitate or compete but to trouble. At the heart of all Tillmans' work is a kind of moral doubt – a question mark about what photography is and what it does.
