  • Catalogue Essay

    "Kippenberger made hundreds of drawings on hotel stationery, a body of work that comes across as a kind of travel diary. Although he often lived in hotels for weeks or even months, he didn’t stay at all the hotels whose notepaper he used, often picking it up from other sources. The stationery became, like so many things he encountered, a readymade material for his art." (Text from the exhibition Martin Kippenberger, Tate Modern, 2006. Curated by Jessica Morgan, Curator, Contemporary Art, Tate Modern and Doris Krystof, Curator, K21, Düsseldorf).
