George, Craig, et al:
My understanding of this (if I may) is that
Jorn, after the dissolution of COBRA, met Max Bill (as
well as Enrico Baj) and talked about various
collaborations, but they had a "falling-out" due to
Bill's rather "unbending" personality and Jorn ended
up accusing Bill of wanting to continue art education
into areas that didn't promote the use of one's "play"
aspect and/or imagination (this was during the time
that Bill was working on a "New Bauhaus").
It seems that Jorn left it at that and went on to
start IMIB (International Movement for an Imaginist
Bauhaus) of which Baj later joined as did Appel and
Dotremont. Craig, are you saying
that maybe there was a kind of freedom unleashed by
Roth in his later work? Rod

Syntax, like government, can only be obeyed. It is therefore of no use except when you
have something particular to command such as: Go buy me a bunch of carrots. - John Cage
