Catalogue of the mindblowing and huge exhibition dedicated to the NAROK group exhibition done by Le Dernier Cri in Marseille from Nov 13, 2021 till Feb 13, 2022.
This exhibition was initiated by Pakito Bolino after being inspired by ‘NAROK’ photo book by Stephen Bessac and published by Timeless Ed. in 2019.
This book shows the various reinterpretations of Thai hell’s gardens done by a myriad of artists from all over the world. To recreate those hellish visions, they used very different medias such as painting, drawing, screen printing, etching, sculptures, video,… This a state-of-the-art tribute to the mortuary cult and also to Thai popular culture dealing with that subject such as horror mangas.

It is really massive book, with photos from the exhibition as well as ton of exhibition works displayed with professional scans. All full color, A4. It really shows how out-of-loop even guys like myself are, when thinking there is shortage of exciting and nasty art, and then probably half names of the book say absolutely nothing to me, hah... Got to investigate some artists further.
