Note du spécialiste

‘‘Anything he encountered, experienced, or observed, whether people, ideas, or images, could elicit a work. No subject was sacred, and Kippenberger drew equally from popular culture, art, architecture, music, politics, history, and his own life and work as sources, styles and subjects. Kippenberger embraced failure as a generative strategy’ (A. Goldstein, ‘The Problem Perspective’, in Martin Kippenberger: The Problem Perspective, exh. cat., The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, 2008, p.39).
