“There is always something unsettling about fearless looking as opposed to coy allusion or shockingly flashing. To look without fear is a good subversive tool, undermining taboos,” the artist Wolfgang Tillmans said in a 2008 interview with frieze magazine—the origin of the title for our new exhibition, Wolfgang Tillmans: To look without fear. At this month’s Roundtable, join curator Roxana Marcoci and former curatorial assistant Phil Taylor (now at the George Eastman Museum) for a live online conversation about what it means to “look without fear” and the ways Tillmans explores the critical power of vision, the eye as a subversive tool, and more throughout his remarkable body of work.
