Dieter Roth, also known as Dieter Rot and Diter Rot, was a German-born Icelandic artist most known for his artist’s books, sculptures, and installations, although he worked in drawing and painting as well.

Dieter Roth
Much of Dieter Roth's early career was spent in Iceland, which was isolated from most of the European modernist movements, so Dieter Roth had the opportunity to develop a unique aesthetic.
