Untitled
1971
From the collection of Museum of Modern Art
Untitled is a 1971 by Dieter Roth, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This image shows two book covers side by side. The left cover has a blue doughnut with a hole, sprinkles, and a bite taken out of it. It sits on a red background. The right cover has a red, crumbly object shaped like a doughnut, but it’s messy and falling apart on a light blue background. The left doughnut looks almost real, while the right one is clearly made of something rough and broken. Both covers play with how we expect food to look in art. Look up Dieter Roth next to see more of his playful, everyday-artwork.
