Wolfgang Tillmans, Concorde . Walther König, Koln, 1997.
First edition, first printing. Artist's book. The publication of this book coicides with the exhibition "I didn't inhale" by Wolfgang Tillmans at Chisenhale Gallery, London 1997. According to photographer Wolfgang Tillmans, "For the chosen few, flying Concorde is apparently a glamorous but cramped and slightly boring routine while to watch it in air, landing or taking off is a strange and free spectacle, a super modern anachronism and an image of the desire to overcome time and distance through technology." With no text other than the inner-front flap's description This is first edition of Tillmans' iconic artist's book. It consists of 62 color photographs of the Concorde airplanetaking off, landing or in flight, and sometimes as just a tiny, bird-like silhouette in the sky. Texts in English and German.
