<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Mentre negli anni Ottanta in America e nel mondo, nelle gallerie e nei musei si radicava un gusto per un'arte sempre più concettuale, in California, in particolare tra Los Angeles e San Francisco, si affacciavano, neanche troppo timidamente, nei circuiti underground, le prime forme di quelle che saranno riconosciute come "lowbrow art" prima e "pop surrealism" successivamente. In questo volume si tracciano le principali linee guida che definiscono la cultura lowbrow che hanno dato poi il via a una corrente artistica che dagli Stati Uniti ha travolto nei decenni a seguire anche il resto del mondo, seppure con altre forme e altri linguaggi, accomunati tra loro da uno scopo comune: scarnificare l'animo umano facendone emergere i tormenti in un carnevale di colori e forme, esorcizzando i lati più oscuri del subconscio *** An Italian language book about these art movements is now available. The book features international OG's of Lowbrow Art and Pop Surrealism including: Mark Ryden, Marion Peck, Lisa Petrucci, Isabel Samaras, Ciou, Anthony Ausgang, Shag, Camille Rose Garcia, Scott Musgrove, Yosuke Ueno, Natascia Raffio, Giuseppe Veneziano, and many others. Here's the synopsis: While in the Eighties in America and in the world, in galleries and museums a taste for an increasingly conceptual art took root, in California, in particular between Los Angeles and San Francisco, they appeared, not too timidly, in the underground circuits, the first forms of what will be recognized as "lowbrow art" first and "pop surrealism" later. This volume traces the main guidelines that define the lowbrow culture which then gave way to an artistic current that from the United States has overwhelmed the rest of the world in the following decades, albeit with other forms and other languages, united among it gives them a common purpose: to flesh out the human soul by making its torments emerge in a carnival of colors and shapes, exorcising the darker sides of the subconscious.
