Title: Wait, later this will be nothing
Description: "Dieter Roth's artmaking practices were wildly inventive across many different mediums, but it was arguably through his editioned works--books, prints, and multiples--that he made his most important and radical contributions. These experiments include literature "sausages" filled with ground-up books, newpapers, or magazines in place of meat; the use of organic materials like fruit juice in lieu of printing inks; multiples of plastic toys mired in chocolate; and a dazzling array of variations on printed postcards. Focusing on the prolific period of Roth's work between 1960 and 1972, this volume highlights examples of his most exciting and innovative books and graphics." --back cover.
