Freischwimmer 170
2011
A large-scale abstract photograph by Wolfgang Tillmans, *Freischwimmer 170* belongs to his celebrated series created without a camera, produced by exposing photographic paper directly to light in the darkroom. Fluid, translucent forms drift across the image in soft gradients of color, evoking organic movement and aqueous depth. The work exemplifies Tillmans' ongoing investigation into the fundamental materiality of photography itself.
