Hyperart: Thomasson

Meer over het boek

The book explores the innovative project of Genpei Akasegawa, an avant-garde artist who sought out peculiar objects in Japan, coining the term "hyperart" to describe them. His work reflects a playful yet profound engagement with urban life, drawing parallels to modern thinkers like Walter Benjamin. This revised edition includes insights from scholars and a new essay on Akasegawa's influence as a teacher, enriching the understanding of his legacy in art and literature. Fans of mixed-media and urban exploration will find this work particularly engaging.
