Scope and Contents The Sackners saw the inaugural exhibition at the Hammer Gallery in 2006. "This beautifully illustrated book highlights the unique history of The Societe Anonyme, Inc., an organization founded in 1920 by the artists Katherine S. Dreier (1877-–1952), Marcel Duchamp (1887-–1968), and Man Ray (1890-–1976). As America's first “experimental museum for modern art, the Societe Anonyme provided a means for artists, rather than historians, to chronicle the rise of modernism. Led by Dreier and Duchamp, the group eventually assembled a collection of more than one thousand artworks, which it presented to the public in a variety of innovative programs, publications, and exhibitions. The incredible collection of the Societe Anonyme now belongs to the Yale University Art Gallery, a gift from the Societe and Dreier.

Wait, Later This Will Be Nothing: Editions by Dieter Roth / Roth, Dieter ; Jane Bobko, curator ; Gomringer E ; Duchamp M ; Hamilton R ; Buendia R., 2013

 Item
Identifier: CC-56786-10000159
Scope and Contents

Director Glenn Lowry writes in the catalogue forward that "Dieter Roth was an endlessly inventive and thought-provoking artist whose substantial body of work, made over the course of nearly five decades, is both prodigious and idiosyncratic. In his experiments with forms, materials, and language, Roth challenged the boundaries not only between mediums but between art and everyday life." Curator Sarah Suzuki writes that "it is easier to describe what he is not than what he is : Above all, he is not a propagandist, and he is not a prophet. He is neither a moralist nor an immoralist. And he is no joiner...He is a member of no ism, group or movement, although many movements, groups, and isms would like to claim him as one of their own." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
