Wolfgang Tillmans: The Cars

Featured image is reproduced from Wolfgang Tillmans: The Cars, an artist's book launching Friday, September 11 at Dashwood Books, where Tillmans will sign from 6-8PM. Though the book collects photographs that capture "what cars 'actually' look like," a poetry comes through.
Tillmans writes:
"There is more to say and describe. Cars are infinitely rich in sensual experiences.
The smells. The touch inside.
Of a new car.
The scented trees
Old upholstery. Cold smoke.
The air pressure against a hand held out of the side window.
Plastic.
Textured plastic, wood, leather.
The thud of a fat door, the bang of a hollow door.
A hard suspension. A soft suspension.
Melted snow and gravel making a grey soup of the foot mat.
A wasp trapped behind the wind screen.
The smell of the inside of a car parked in full sunlight.
The creepiness of a heated seat.
A coin lost between the upholstery."
