Just read a pretty interesting interview with Wolfgang Tillmans here.
“Is it not that you want to present your pictures unadorned and directly?
No, for me it was maximum purity and this most simple of presentational forms was about directness of content as well as the vibrancy of a complex image on a simple piece of photograph paper. It’s rarely mentioned that these details can represent different even opposite things. But that’s largely a semantic problem for me. Language looks for absolute clarity where art is often about graduations.”
Also found a few cool artists/photographers recently.
Brad Phillips: I think this guy is Hilarious
“If I had a Pseudonym”
Both of these artists have a sense of humor that I really like. It’s nice to see a lighthearted but still intelligent approach to art. I like the way Melanie Schiff seems to be poking fun at the art process and the idea of being an artist. Lot’s of beer bottles and cd cases, dirty rooms, and old hipster shirts.
