Background information
"Henry ROX is a forgotten artist from the middle of the 20th century. With the present volume 'Henry Rox Revue', edited by Wolfgang Vollmer, the surprising rediscovery of an impressive artistic position succeeds. The few documents, photographs and references to Henry ROX's work are scattered among many archives and collections in America and Europe. A comprehensive publication, a detailed classification of his works has not existed until now.

The photographic volume 'Henry Rox Revue', edited by Wolfgang Vollmer, "combines artistic masterpieces between acrobatics, music and dance with the scurrilities of everyday life - the impossible is captured here in unique photographs. Henry ROX's photographic imagery is a crazy revue with enigmatic wit and whimsical charm. It plays with disguise and parody and thrives on simple as well as equally imaginative arrangements and stagings, in which he casts the most diverse roles with diverse fruits and vegetables as the main characters."
