{"title":"Bags","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 1980, in Cologne, Germany, a young art history student with a great passion for comics decided to forge his own path. His name was Benedikt Taschen. From a young age, he had an almost boundless hunger for graphic novels and collected hundreds of comic albums. What started as a hobby grew into a small business: he sold duplicate copies from his collection to fund new purchases.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoon, that trade turned into something bigger. With starting capital of only a few hundred marks, he opened a small comic book store. There, he sold not only classic European comic albums, but also American comics and underground publications that were hardly available in Germany. Benedikt felt there was an audience longing for affordable, accessible art and picture books.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe real breakthrough came when he decided to publish books himself. His idea was as simple as it was revolutionary: to create art books not only for museums or wealthy collectors, but for a broad audience. Where art books had often been expensive and elitist, Taschen wanted to make them colourful, daring, and above all, affordable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1984, the book Picasso appeared in a remarkably large print run and at a sharp price. The success was overwhelming: within a short time, Taschen sold hundreds of thousands of copies. With this, Benedikt Taschen set the tone: art and culture should not remain an ivory tower, but should find their way into the homes of ordinary people.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOver the years, Taschen grew from a small comic shop into a globally leading publisher, known for its luxurious yet still relatively accessible art books, often in spectacular XXL formats. The company published iconic works on fashion, photography, architecture, film, and eroticism, and collaborated with big names such as Helmut Newton, David LaChapelle, and Ai Weiwei.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eToday, Taschen symbolizes the democratisation of art books: from small affordable paperbacks to monumental collector's editions. And it all started with one student, a passion for comics, and the conviction that art is for everyone.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"sneaker-freaker-the-ultimate-sneaker-book","title":"Sneaker Freaker: The Ultimate Sneaker Book","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe first publication of its kind: Sneaker Freaker has been at the forefront of global sneaker culture for nearly two decades.
