Kautz- Jippies Asquerosos expands on gold's spiritual and materialistic implications in his gilded works on paper.
Kautz critically broadens the legacy of Mathias Goeritz by referring to his "Metachromatic Messages" to merge through written quotes with the design of a font or alphabet by Fray Gabriel Chavez de la Mora (1929-2022).
The quote used in Quid Pro Quo (The Secret) makes reference to Das Kapital (1867) by Karl Marx (1818-1883), creating further tension against the production of art’s market value.
