Dieter Roth

Karnickelköttelkarnickel (Rabbit-Shit-Rabbit)

A mischievously provocative work by Dieter Roth, *Karnickelköttelkarnickel (Rabbit-Shit-Rabbit)* from 1975 embodies the artist's celebrated embrace of organic, perishable, and unconventional materials in art-making. True to Roth's irreverent Fluxus-adjacent sensibility, the work blurs the boundaries between the abject and the aesthetic, transforming the most humble biological matter into a numbered editioned object. Co-published with the Eat Art Galerie in Düsseldorf, this piece reflects Roth's ongoing collaboration with Daniel Spoerri's provocative gallery concept, which consistently challenged traditional notions of artistic value and consumption.

Medium
signed, dated '75' and numbered 58/250 in black ink on a label affixed to the reverse, co-published by the artist and Eat Art Galerie, Düsseldorf.
