Author: Thomas Bratzke
Hailing from Berlin, Thomas Bratzke (a.k.a. Zasd, Zast) is a central figure within the experimental urban art scene of the past two decades. This book is the first comprehensive survey of the artist's work. His performances, sculptures and interventions transcend the genre of graffiti. He deconstructs and reconstructs the quotidian, from everyday objects to the fabric of the city, and even engages with social systems and structures, to create a new, more vibrant and interactive reality for his audience. As a part of the Berlin-based collective jazzstylecorner, Bratzke has expanded his practice to incorporate collaboration and improvisation, central tenets of the graffiti world, with more atypical ingredients such as jazz music, 3D projection, kinetic sculpture, and digital media. Thomas Bratzke has exhibited in Berlin, New York City, Tokyo, and in many cities in Europe and internationally. Here, for the first time, can be seen a comprehensive survey of his work. The book contains three parts, Part 1: Plates, Presentation of selected photographs of all mentioned projects of Thomas Bratzke´s body of work). Part 2: The House of Thomas Bratzke, written by Rose Pacult. Part 3: Map of Works.
ISBN 9789185639885. Dokument Press. hb. 160 pages. 100 colour ills. 24 x 17 cm.
