Created on the occasion of the exhibition Weltraum at the Albertinum in Dresden, this artist's book places four decades of Tillmans's practice in a thought-provoking dialogue with the past and present of East and West Germany. It intertwines excerpts from a 1987 Dresden inventory catalogue with Tillmans' 2003 catalogue for Tate Britain, in which he devised a speculative catalogue raisonné of his early work. The book also includes a conversation in which the artist looks back on his beginnings and discusses the aesthetic and social significance of those early years from today's vantage point.

ABOUT

The project

SpineIndex is an archive of independent books on photography and visual culture: photobooks, publications, design books and self-published editions — the kind of work that rarely makes it into bookshop windows or mainstream catalogues. It exists to document, connect, and keep visible a world of publishers, artists, and makers who operate outside conventional distribution. A living reference for anyone who takes this territory seriously — collectors, researchers, students, and the simply curious.

Images and rights

Covers, interior pages and descriptions are shown to introduce and identify the books, always crediting publisher, author and photographer and linking back to the publisher. We ask publishers for their permission, and we remove anything on request within 7 days. If you are a publisher, an author or a photographer and you want something changed or removed, write to info@spineindex.it.
