| 沃爾夫?qū)?提爾門斯 （Wolfgang Tillmans）
(2000年獲得 “透納獎”)
1968年出生
德國攝影師。在漢堡生活工作一段時間（1987–90年）之后，他在伯恩茅斯和普爾藝術(shù)設(shè)計學(xué)院（Bournemouth and Poole College of Art） （1990–92年）求學(xué)，然后定居倫敦。1998年，他被任命為漢堡造型藝術(shù)學(xué)院（ Hochschule für Bildende Künste）的客座教授。在20世紀(jì)80年代末，提爾門斯開始拍攝混合時尚攝影和記錄攝影的有趣照片。起初，他與漢堡的風(fēng)格和時尚期刊合作，拍攝歐洲俱樂部的情景照片。1988年，他開始與英國生活雜志i-D 廣泛合作，在雜志內(nèi)容中，他出版了自己的許多作品。作品主題從身邊的靜物到朋友和名人的肖像，常常明確地涉及到他對無家可歸、種族主義和同性戀權(quán)利等政治問題的關(guān)注。他利用精心建造的墻式蒙太奇展出圖像作品，混合使用噴墨打印圖和雜志照片及頁面，比如，《我屏住呼吸》（ I Didn't Inhale ）展覽（倫敦, Chisenhale美術(shù)館, 1997年）。這種展覽表現(xiàn)了他的作品中藝術(shù)與出版的緊密聯(lián)系 。這些蒙太奇時常在連續(xù)性的裝置中使用相同的圖像，其效果不僅是為了使攝影印刷品和大量制作的雜志頁面產(chǎn)生同等的價值，而且還為了避免在創(chuàng)作題材方面產(chǎn)生等級層次，從而使Blur樂隊歌手達(dá)蒙?奧爾本（Damon Albarn ）等知名人物能被安排在無名小輩的身旁。他于2000年獲得特納獎。
Wolfgang Tillmans
(won the Turner Prize in 2000)
born 1968
German photographer. After a period living and working in Hamburg (1987–90), he studied at the Bournemouth and Poole College of Art (1990–92), and then settled in London. In 1998 he was appointed guest professor at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste, Hamburg. In the late 1980s Tillmans began making photographs that constitute an intriguing hybrid of fashion photography and documentary reportage. Working at first with Hamburg-based style and fashion journals, he took photographs of the European club scene. In 1988 he began an extensive collaboration with the British lifestyle magazine i-D, in whose pages he published much of his work. His subjects range from intimate still-lifes to portraits of friends and celebrities, referring often explicitly to his involvement with political issues such as homelessness, racism and gay rights. He exhibits his images in carefully constructed wall montages, mixing ink-jet prints with photographs and pages taken from the magazines, for instance in the exhibition I Didn't Inhale (London, Chisenhale, 1997). Such presentation demonstrates the close interaction of art and publishing in his work. The effect of these montages, often using the same image in successive installations, serves not only to give equal value to the photographic print and mass-produced magazine page, but also to reject a hierarchy in the subject-matter, so that a well-known personality such as Blur's singer Damon Albarn can be placed next to an unknown sitter. He was awarded the Turner Prize in 2000. |
