Richard Hamilton (1922-2011) & Dieter Roth (1930-1998) Interfaeces The very rare essay, comprising 15 sheets of hand-annotated text with a pen and ink drawing on the front page by both artists in red and black, 1978, one of only 15 copies produced for the Hamilton/Roth joint exhibition at Waddington & Tooth Galleries, London, on wove paper, staple bound as issued, housed in a black leather and cloth slipcase, overall overall 340 x 233 x 8mm (13 3/8 x 9 1/8 x ¼) (folio) The present work was produced for the first 15 people to visit the Richard Hamilton and Dieter Roth joint exhibition at Waddington & Tooth Galleries in 1978. Hamilton and Roth hand-annotated each of the 15 copies, with both also adding a drawing to the cover. In the present example the artists drew on the imagery Hamilton had been creating during the 'Shit and Flowers' period in the 1970s and added a drawing of a lump of excrement to the cover. Hamilton's addition clearly is recognisable when compared to those in prints such as Esquisse and Sunset (f) (Lullin 87, and 102 AH CHECK) whereas Roth's is far more fluid.
