Peter Roehr (1944–1968) (card)
Published by Frankfurter Museum für Moderne Kunst, 1991, card (b/w ill.), 10.5 × 14.7 cm, German
Price: €22

Promotional card for a publication containing a detailed presentation of all 22 works by Peter Roehr in the collection of the Frankfurter Museum für Moderne Kunst.

Despite having only a brief artistic career, spanning from 1962 to 1967, Peter Roehr left behind him a prolific oeuvre of pioneering collages, photo and sound montages and films. Roehr developed a proto-conceptual practice borrowing from pop art and minimalism. His practice was based on the principle of serial organisation and montage, focusing on the effects produced by unvaried repetition.
