Taschenzimmer. 1968.
Multiple. Banana slices over pins on stamp picture in plastic box. Firmly mounted in object box.
Dobke (Bücher und Editionen) 1968.42. Monogrammed and dated. Cardboard box barely legible inscribed "Taschenzimmer von Dieter Roth" in typography. Copy from an unlimited edition. Ca. 10,8 x 7,5 x 2 cm (4,2 x 2,9 x 0,7 in).
What is characteristic of Dieter Roth's work is that the portable object, despite its conception as a multiple, has unique character, because the banana slice is subject to a natural process of decay, which, as so often the case in Roth's oeuvre, leads to individual molding figurations. Made and published by VICE-Versand, Remscheid, Wolfgang Feelisch. With original cardboard box. [KP].
