The first exhibition in the Kunsthalle Zürich’s renovated and extended premises in the Löwenbräu art complex is dedicated to the return of an artist who presented his very first institutional exhibition at the Kunsthalle Zürich in 1995, a show that marked the beginning of his international career. Tillmans, who works in photography and video, is one of the most important representatives of the art of the 1990s and has created icons of a generation with his photographs. His work revolves around the life and concerns of his generation, and includes portraits of friends and individuals from the London and international club, fashion and gay scenes. He also provides a committed and personal insight into the global social and political events of this generation. In the opening exhibition at the new Löwenbräu, Wolfgang Tillmans (born in Remscheid, Germany, in 1968; lives and works in London and Berlin) will present a large-scale show, which will provide a platform for previously unseen and recent experimental works and innovative forms of presentation.
