Martin Kippenberger Art

German, 1953-1997
For two prolific decades, Martin Kippenberger critiqued consumerism, pop culture, and art world status quo with provocative Neo-Expressionist paintings, sculptures, photographs, collages, and installations. Drawing from disparate art historical references including Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp, Sigmar Polke, Pop art, Social Realism, and punk, he remixed old styles to generate wild, funny, and new modes of artmaking. Kippenberger is known for self-portraits in which he riffed on historical paintings and often appropriated others’ work outright. In 1987, he turned a monochrome canvas by Gerhard Richter into a coffee table. For his series “Lieber Maler, Male Mir” (“Dear Painter, Paint for Me,” 1981), Kippenberger commissioned a sign painter in Berlin named Werner to produce several works for him; he then credited them to “Werner Kippenberger.” During his brief lifetime, Kippenberger exhibited extensively in Europe and the United States

"Gober’s Hanging Man/Sleeping Man has become a touchstone of American art made during the political and social upheavals of the late 1980s and early 1990s, which included the AIDS epidemic, the culture wars, and the Los Angeles riots.

Raymond Pettibon Black Flag 1983 postmarked (Raymond Pettibon prints)
By Raymond Pettibon
Located in NEW YORK, NY
Raymond Pettibon: Rare early Black Flag punk flyer: Black Flag Santa Monica Civic Auditorium, Jun 11, 1983. Santa Monica, CA. Flyer / handbill for gig by Black Flag, Misfits, Vandals featuring artwork by Pettibon. Post-marked 1983 on verso; rare as such given the SST stamp on verso (Black Flag's record label). Offset Print; 8.5 x 11 inches. Features Pettibon printed signure on the lower right. Condition: Minor signs of handling and fading or yellowing; fold-lines and staple marks to upper & lower center (these were originally stapled together and mailed); in otherwise very good overall condition given age & medium. Post-marked 1983 and hand addressed on verso. Rare. Flea, the Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist once said of Pettibon's Black Flag illustrations and iconic logo: "Before I knew what Black Flag was I remember walking around Hollywood and seeing Raymond's flyers and being like, 'What the fuck is that?'… Those flyers made me feel like something is going on and it's romantic and it's mysterious and it's heavy and I don't know what it is but I wanna know." About Raymond Pettibon (Americanb. 1957) Raymond Pettibon is a contemporary American artist known for his stylized ink drawings combining images and text. His inventive narratives blend historical content with consumer culture to yield incisive critiques of contemporary society. “I was making my work as transparent as possible, without equivocations, without calling attention to itself, without apology,” he explained. “There's a lot of conventions in the art world that are not to be transgressed, but my economy of means doesn't abide by those strictures.” Born Raymond Ginn on June 16, 1957 in Tucson, AZ, the artist is self-taught, but cites drawings by William Blake, Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, and John Sloan as instructive to his practice. Deriving inspiration from comics, cartoons, and other pop culture iconography, Pettibon began designing album covers and ephemera for his brother’s band Black Flag in the mid-1970s. He went on to produce cover art for Sonic Youth, the Minutemen...
