To create his artistic world, visual artist Rashaad Newsome samples modern formal compositional principles as well as elements of black sub- and pop culture. He thus creates futuristic concepts that blend baroque ornamentation with the bling-bling glamor of the hip-hop world in a way that makes the combination seem self-evident. He has created a video version of KING OF ARMS specifically for Kampnagel.
