The book, which is accompanied by 80 facsimiles of original sketches, drawings, letters and postcards, tells the story of a long-standing close collaboration between the artist, Dieter Roth, and Hans Langenbacher, a goldsmith in Lucerne and Reykjavik. The documents are printed on a variety of types of paper and are presented in a folder. Supplementary photographic and textual material documents detail the fascinating complexity of designing and producing the jewellery. The book containing the original documents – and the rings themselves – were seen in exhibitions at the mak (Museum für angewandte Kunst) in Vienna, at the Aargauer Kunsthaus, Aarau, and at the Musée des arts décoratifs in Paris.
