Wolfgang Tillmans RA (b.1968) is regarded as one of the most influential figures working within photography today. In 2000, he was the first non-British artist to receive the Turner Prize. Since the
early 1990s Tillmans has been challenging the potentiality of making pictures. His work has epitomized a new kind of subjectivity in photography, pairing intimacy and playfulness with social
critique and the persistent questioning of existing values and hierarchies. Through his seamless integration of genres, subjects, techniques, and exhibition strategies, he has expanded conventional
ways of approaching the medium, and his practice continues to address the fundamental question of what it means to create pictures in an increasingly image-saturated world.

Charlie Fox (b. 1991) is a London based writer and curator.
Curator of My Head is a Haunted House, Sadie Coles HQ 5 June - 31 August 2019
‘When I was a weird little kid in suburbia obsessed with horror of all kinds, my grandfather (who isn't
alive anymore) built me a haunted house. I could pretend I was a ghost or a bat or a werewolf crying
blood over a cardboard tombstone. It was a make-believe world where my imagination could get
deranged and it was magic. My Head is a Haunted House grew out of that hallucinogenic memory
and its psychic hold on me.’
