Parergon: Japanese Art of the 1980s and 1990s is the exhibition catalog for the landmark two-part exhibition curated by Mika Yoshitake at Blum & Poe. It is a definitive English-language primer and primary text for a largely undocumented period of Japanese art history, between the 1970s Mono-ha movement and the Neo-Pop era. The catalog features performance photography, installation shots, curatorial essays, socio-political analysis, textimonials, artist interviews, underground noise profiles, and music ephemera.
