He has published 11 books and 7 music albums (five of them under his defunct pseudonym Kutti MC), written plays, essays, and columns, been translated into several foreign languages, collaborated with various artists, had exhibitions in Germany and abroad, and performed in over 20 different countries in Europe, Africa, the USA, South America, and Asia.
Halter is also a gifted improvisational artist, whether he's on stage alone or with artists like Stephan Eicher, Baschi, or Dieter Meier (Yello). Endo Anaconda once said of Halter: "Jürg Halter is an improvisational genius."«
Having made a name for himself in recent years primarily as a socially critical writer and visual artist, Halter is now working on what is essentially his first solo program. This will be a mix of new and old, both poetic and ironic dialect texts, and improvisation.It will include musical accompaniment. More on that soon.
