For his artist's book, Wolfgang Tillmans turned to the printing press with great pleasure and creativity, adding ink to the rollers himself and creating abstract forms on both sides of register sheets used during the printing of his book Abstract Pictures. The resulting doubling, smudging, and layering of images are also featured on the cover of the clothbound artist's book that was created from these sheets and assembled by hand—fascinating one-of-a-kind objects, none of which are exactly alike.
