Published in association with the exhibitions Rebuilding the Future at IMMA, Dublin and Today Is The First Day at WIELS, Brussels, this book explores the latest developments in Tillmans's work over three years. It spans the artist's multifaceted approach to image-making, video, performance, music and political activities, with newly commissioned texts from contributors including Olivia Laing, Brian Dillon, Catherine Wood and David Chew. It includes over thirty pages featuring his set design for the English National Opera production of War Requiem, recent portraits such as his iconic image of Frank Ocean, and detailed installation views.
