"Concorde" is a photobook by Wolfgang Tillmans, a photographer born in Germany and based in the UK. He gained attention in the 1990s through magazines such as "iD" and "Interview," and won the prestigious Turner Prize in 2000. Inspired by youth culture in London, Tillmans has expanded his work beyond capturing fragments of everyday life with his unique perspective and sensibility, and continues to be active in various fields such as filmmaking, installations, and abstract fine art. His style, which reinterprets familiar subjects from a new perspective, has become popular with fashionistas, coinciding with the trend of real clothes. This book is composed of illustrations of the now-defunct supersonic aircraft, the Concorde. It is a "journey through the sky" by Tillmans, who has always been fascinated by space and airplanes, and who has had an interest in astronomy. With its outstanding composition, aesthetic color depiction, and documentary-style storytelling, this book is a condensed expression of Tillmans' sense. Published in 2017, 5th edition.
