2015

July 25–September 23

The National Museum of Art in Osaka presented Wolfgang Tillmans: Your Body is Yoursthe photograher's first show at a Japanese museum in 11 years. Tillmans himself designed the exhibition space, which featured two large video installations: Book for Architects, a two-channel video work presenting 450 photographs of buildings on five continents; and Instrument, a video in which a figure's rhythmic steps produce a self-generated soundtrack to the work.

Tillmans also designed the accompanying exhibition catalogue, which included a text by Yuka Uematsu.
