Tetsumi Kudo: Retrospective

Over a period of three decades the Japanese artist Tetsumi Kudo created a consistent body of work that significantly foreshadowed what is now known as posthumanism and new materialism. His coloured neon contaminations, limp penises, tattered flaps of skin and lone body parts wrapped in cocoons bring humanist self-assurance crashing to the ground. This catalogue brings together contributions by artists and theorists and documents Kudo’s oeuvre in plates and archival images.
