The photography of Wolfgang Tillmans (b. 1968 in Germany), “To Look Without Fear” is on display helter skelter on the walls of the upper floor of the Art Gallery of Ontario. Breathtaking in its audacity, but to speak without fear, overwhelming in its mediocrity.
There are some outstanding moments of brilliance and/or technique but they are swamped by lesser pieces.
Some of the best photos were those that had been printed in newspapers such as this photo of refugees in East Timor.
Exhibit continues until then end of September 2023

Thank you for your comment. It took a long time to decide how to write that blog post so I am glad to hear that at least one person agrees with me!
