Hyperart Thomasson
Thomasson or Hyperart Thomasson (Japanese: ''Tomason'' トマソン or ''Chōgeijutsu Tomason'' 超芸術トマソン) is a type of conceptual art named by the Japanese artist Akasegawa Genpei in the 1980s. It refers to a useless relic or structure that has been preserved as part of a building or the built environment, which has become a piece of art in itself. These objects, although having the appearance of pieces of conceptual art, were not created to be viewed as such. Akasegawa deemed them even more art-like than art itself, and named them "hyperart". In recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in Thomasson, especially since the publication of Akasegawa's work on the subject in English in 2010.Akasegawa Genpei''Hyperart: Thomasson'' translated by Matt Fargo, Kaya Press, 2010 Etymology The term Thomasson comes from the professional baseball player Gary Thomasson, who was signed by the Yomiuri Giants for a record-breaking sum of money, and spent his final two seaso ...

Conceptual Art
Conceptual art, also referred to as conceptualism, is art in which the concept(s) or idea(s) involved in the work take precedence over traditional aesthetic, technical, and material concerns. Some works of conceptual art, sometimes called installations, may be constructed by anyone simply by following a set of written instructions. This method was fundamental to American artist Sol LeWitt's definition of conceptual art, one of the first to appear in print: Tony Godfrey, author of ''Conceptual Art (Art & Ideas)'' (1998), asserts that conceptual art questions the nature of art, a notion that Joseph Kosuth elevated to a definition of art itself in his seminal, early manifesto of conceptual art, ''Art after Philosophy'' (1969). The notion that art should examine its own nature was already a potent aspect of the influential art critic Clement Greenberg's vision of Modern art during the 1950s. With the emergence of an exclusively language-based art in the 1960s, however, conceptual ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Thomaso
''Thomaso, or the Wanderer'' is mid-seventeenth-century stage play, a two-part comedy written by Thomas Killigrew, The work was composed in Madrid, c. 1654. ''Thomaso'' is based on Killigrew's personal experiences as a Royalist exile during the era of the Commonwealth, when he was abroad continuously from 1647 to 1660. ''Thomaso'' is now best known as the foundation upon which Aphra Behn constructed her finest play, '' The Rover, or the Banished Cavaliers'' (1677). Autobiography Though Killigrew drew upon Mateo Alemán's picaresque novel ''Guzmán de Alfarache'' for source material, his ''Thomaso'' is generally considered strongly autobiographical; it is no accident that the title is the Spanish version of the playwright's given name. Like his earlier comedy ''The Parson's Wedding'' (but unlike the tragicomedies that make of most of his dramatic output), ''Thomaso'' features abundant bawdy humour and sexual frankness, to the discomfiture of generations of traditional critics.
