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 Drawing from disparate art historical references including Pablo Picasso, Marcel Duchamp, Sigmar Polke, Pop art, Social Realism, and punk, he remixed old styles to generate wild, funny, and new modes of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 Statesto

Kippenberger's Wall Street is full of biting social commentary about American society. In addition to the brazen text references (such as "I Love Peace and Money") and the title (Wall Street), it also depicts American artist Robert Gober's famous "Hanging Man/Sleeping Man: (in the permanent collection of the Hammer Museum).
"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. The work features two images side by side, one of a sleeping white man in bed...
