"Thomasson or Hyperart Thomasson
(Japanese: Tomason トマソン or Chōgeijutsu Tomason 超芸術トマソン) is a type of
conceptual art named by the Japanese artist Akasegawa Genpei in the
1980s. It refers to a useless relic or structure that has been
preserved as part of a building or the built environment, which has
become a piece of art in itself. These objects, although having the
appearance of pieces of conceptual art, were not created to be viewed
as such. Akasegawa deemed them even more art-like than art itself, and
named them "hyperart." In recent years there has been a resurgence of
interest in Thomasson, especially since the publication of Akasegawa's
work on the subject in English in 2010.[1]" - Hyperart
