Sculptor, poet, pioneer of artist’s books, performer and musician, Swiss-born artist Dieter Roth spent his career trying to undo his art education, creating systems to discourage the conventional and consistent. He is especially known for a distinctively unorthodox material approach, with works made of found materials, including rotting foodstuffs, grease stains, mould, and insect borings. Roth’s fascination with their painterly, textural aspects and innate ability to make time visible brought an element of chance into his oeuvre. This comprehensive monograph is dedicated to his complex, proliferative and innovative work, in which he tests the limits of the creative process.
