Wolfgang Tillmans new show “Rien ne nous y préparait − Tout nous y préparait” opened this weekend at Centre Pompidou, Paris

In a bold takeover of the 6,000 m2 of level 2 in the Bibliothèque Publique d’Information marking the end of the exhibition programme at the Centre Pompidou – Tillmans blurs the lines between exhibition and library, creating a living archive of image, sound, and thought.

The retrospective explores over 35 years of his work, across various photographic genres from portraiture, still life, architecture, documentary images and abstraction.

In partnership with Celine

On view until September 22nd
