Wolfgang Tillmans — Installation New York (1990-1995)
Wolfgang Tillmans

Installation New York (1990-1995)

Wolfgang Tillmans' *Installation New York (1990-1995)* is a constellation of seventeen chromogenic prints that document the artist's early years immersed in New York's vibrant subcultures, nightlife, and everyday urban life. Printed between 2001 and 2008, the works reflect Tillmans' signature candid intimacy, capturing fleeting moments of youth, identity, and community with an unguarded authenticity. Together, the prints function as both a personal archive and a broader cultural record, inviting viewers into a world defined by freedom, experimentation, and belonging.
