During preparations for a recent retrospective at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, it became clear that America played a crucial role in Roth's artistic development. In Philadelphia he and his students experimented with new graphic and photographic techniques, which resulted in SNOW, a major work now owned by MoMA. It was in Providence that he had his first large studio, and the work made there is pivotal in the development of Roth's oeuvre, including his paintings and prints that incorporated perishable foodstuffs. In Los Angeles, Roth made his famous \u003ci\u003eSteeple Chase (A Race)\u003c\/i\u003e exhibition, using suitcases filled with different cheeses. Many of the works Roth created during that period are illustrated here in full color. 780 color illustrations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Thames \u0026amp; Hudson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/17\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780500976425\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 152\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 12.26h x 9.44w x 0.55d","brand":"Dirk Dobke","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52161291190453,"sku":"9780500976425","price":25.46,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/files\/img_e46a539f-9c4e-4f7b-8447-4035bc211f53.jpg?v=1768317675","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/dieter-roth-in-america-9780500976425","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
