Wolfgang Tillmans continues pro-European Union campaign

The German photographer and Turner Prize winner Wolfgang Tillmans is creating a series of pro-European Union (EU) posters after producing several passionate pro-Remain posters before the UK voted for Brexit in June last year. “In France, in Slovenia and across Europe, I am developing the posters further and translating them… the EU is not a faceless machine but a democratic representation of 508 million people,” he told us in February, at the opening of a vast retrospective of his recent works at Tate Modern in London (Wolfgang Tillmans: 2017, until 11 June). “Nobody voted for a hard Brexit on 23 June. I strongly believe that dissolving the EU at this time, in this place, in this global situation is the worst thing one can do. I want to continue spreading the message that the EU is not our enemy.”
