About the Item
This book was published by KALEIDOSCOPE, co-curated by Alessio Ascari and Shinji Nanzuka and was designed by Swiss-based art studio Kasper-Florio. It features a critical essay by Venus Lau and an interview with H.R. Giger and Hajime Sorayama. The book pits Soyama’s work against Giger’s, where Sorayama’s “super-realism” challenges Giger’s surrealism. Both artists emerged in the ’70s and ’80s, building reputations as masters of airbrush painting. Comparing their signature styles, their works are juxtaposed throughout the book, highlighting where the two artists differ but also share some similarities. Moreover, the book includes a 50 x 70cm double-sided poster and two 20cm stickers.
Born and trained at opposite ends of the world, Sorayama and Giger are apparently at odds—one’s bright colors are swallowed by the other’s dark chiaroscuro; one’s enthusiastic outlook on technology borders with the other’s nightmarish dystopia; one’s “super-realism” challenges the other’s surrealism—yet they share more than meets the eye. Both emerged in the 1970s and 1980s, becoming acknowledged masters of airbrush painting and influential creators beyond the boundaries of the traditional art world, blurring the relationship between commercial and personal work. But more importantly, at the very core of their practice lies a similar concern: an obsessive investigation of AI, eternal life, and the fusion of organic and apparatus. Gynoids (female androids) are predominant subjects, conjuring the post-human and the apotheosis of the woman to reveal an underlying tension between life, death, power and desire.

Hajime Sorayama (空山 基 Sorayama Hajime, born February 22, 1947) is a Japanese illustrator known for his precisely detailed, erotic portrayals of
feminized, biomechanoid robots, and his design work on the original Sony AIBO robotic "pet". He describes his highly detailed style as "superrealism",
