Wolfgang Tillmans (born 1968) is a German fine-art photographer. His diverse body of work is distinguished by observation of his surroundings and an ongoing investigation of the photographic medium’s foundations. Tillmans was the first photographer - and also the first non-English person - to be awarded the Tate annual Turner Prize. He has also been awarded the Hasselblad Award〔(【引用サイトリンク】 accessdate = 4 March 2015 )〕 and is a member of the Royal Academy of Arts. Tillmans lives in Berlin and London. ==Life and career== Wolfgang Tillmans was born on August 16, 1968 in Remscheid in the German Ruhr area. During his first visit to England as an exchange student in 1983, he discovered the British youth culture and the local fashion and music magazines of the time. From 1987 to 1990, he lived in Hamburg; there, in 1988, he had his first solo exhibitions, at Café Gnosa, Fabrik-Foto-Forum, and Front.〔''(Wolfgang Tillmans ).''

After his studies he moved to London and then to New York in 1994 for a year, where he met the German painter Jochen Klein. After moving back to England, Tillmans lived with Klein until he died of AIDS-related complications in 1997. From 1995, Tillmans primarily lived and worked in London. During the summer of 1998, Tillmans participated in a month-long residency at the last active Shaker community in the world, in Sabbathday Lake, Maine.〔('Casual Beauty: Wolfgang Tillmans' ) Tate Magazin, Issue 5.
