Wolfgang Tillmans - Freedom from the Known georg baselitz the vividly colored Earth becomesWolfgang Tillmans' Freedom From the Known (2006) is a rare Xerox print that exemplifies his radical artistic strategy of dissolving the photographic image into abstraction through extreme enlargement. By magnifying source material to the point where individual halftone dots and raster patterns become visible graphic elements, Tillmans liberates the photograph from its documentary function, transforming it into pure materiality and visual abstraction.
