    Summary note
    Best Kunst' combines personal memories, ideas on art and artists as well as politico-cultural attitudes in the protagonist Kasper König. Featuring: Gerhard Richter, New York for Beginners, Failing in Jerusalem, Andy Warhol, Sculptures, Beginnings in Basements, Cologne networks and many more. 'Best Kunst? The Life of Kasper König in 15 Exhibitions' is the result of a long interview with the international renowned exhibition-maker, as he calls himself, and depicts a fascinating cultural history observing art and society with a sharp-witted mind. Personal interests and objective achievements show a life, which didn?t always follow a straight line, but still accomplished numerous wishes and goals. 'Best Kunst' is like a large postcard about art, the contemporary and dreams to all the readers? written by maybe the most famous postcard-writer in art history. König?s postcards? still his favourite means of communication? are being collected by friends and colleagues like precious artworks. This is why every 10th copy comes with a special edition of a unique, hand-collaged postcard by Kasper König.
