Dubbed his \u003ci\u003eSilver\u003c\/i\u003e works, these photographs expand the boundaries of photographic processes, taking what others might call accidents in the photo development process--like stains from trace chemicals and the titular silver nitrate--and using them in a deliberate compositional manner. The result is a series of images that Tillmans describes as \"stained, impure, bright, [and] unstable.\"\u003cbr\u003eIn this artist's book, Tillmans' \u003ci\u003eSilver\u003c\/i\u003e works are brought together for the first time. In addition to high-quality reproductions of the works themselves, \u003ci\u003eSaturated Light\u003c\/i\u003e includes photographic documentation of the pieces in exhibition settings and as elements of installations. An essay by art theorist Tom Holert discusses the philosophical, aesthetic and material questions that Tillmans' \u003ci\u003eSilver\u003c\/i\u003e series pose. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-10359155\"\u003eWolfgang Tillmans\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Walther Konig Verlag\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/20\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 9.90w x 1.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783960989523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3960989520\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-PHO\"\u003ePhotography\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-PHO011030\"\u003eIndividual Photographers | Monographs\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Walther Konig Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42683893842157,"sku":"9783960989523","price":74.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_9ab3543b-43cd-40f9-bfc8-a632960517d0.jpg?v=1649749140","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/products\/wolfgang-tillmans-saturated-light-silver-works-9783960989523","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
