{"product_id":"roth-3431-bk","title":"Dieter Roth - Mundunculum - 1967 [3431-BK]","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe poem and the etching titled \"mein Auge ist ein Mund\" (my eye is a mouth) are parts of Mundunculum, Dieter Roth's magnum opus, in which the artist makes a pointedly futile attempt to develop a systematic structure—a narrative and pictorial syntax—that is valid for him. Drawings and poetry formulate a metaphor of the coveted ideal work; Roth expresses the desire to fuse eye and mouth, thinking and speaking, to form a naturally bubbling spring of creative work. This would be a state of Utopia, but, for Roth especially, Utopia always meets with a high degree of uncertainty and self-doubt. Roth developed a pictorial alphabet consisting of 23 stamps and then utilized it as the basic material for numerous texts, drawings and assemblages. Inscribed to Jons Hjalmarsson and dated August 67.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zucker Art Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":66971171651629,"sku":"3431-BK","price":800.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/8470\/2765\/files\/3431-01_e9e0a146-b3cb-43aa-9181-725b607bafae.jpg?v=1783098333","url":"https:\/\/zuckerinc.com\/products\/roth-3431-bk","provider":"zuckerartbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
