Founded in West Berlin, Die Tödliche Doris one of the most influential creators of conceptual, avant-garde music and performance art in the 1980s.
The Deadly Doris (translated) were central to the new atonal music scene in 1980s West Berlin. In 1981 they performed at the Festival of Ingenious Dilletantes. Attempting to ignore the division between high art and subculture, amateurism and dilettantism were celebrated as democratic forces against both the capitalist system and GDR socialism.
The group created records, tapes, films, performances, and exhibited their work widely including at documenta 8 in Kassel.
