Vom Eindruck zum Ausdruck. 1/4 Jahrhundert Kippenberger.
Berlin / Paris: Verlag Pikasso's Erben [Self-published], 1979. First Edition. Octavo. Kippenberger's second artist's book, published on the occasion of his 25th birthday, as one of the earliest instances of his lifelong project of "extensive self-projection" (Baumann in Koch). With all but 2 of the 198 pages blank, the edition of 300 copies was issued along with 93 black-and-white stickers derived from Kippenberger family album photographs; for the first number of signed and numbered copies, Kippenberger affixed the stickers himself throughout the book, but the majority of copies have circulated unsigned, with the stickers loose—and almost always with some number significantly fewer than the total. This copy accompanied by 60 of the stickers (4 x 2.75 inches), preserved in fine condition. (Koch 2). Close to fine in illustrated jacket affixed to plain wrappers. Scarce, with single OCLC record located in North America (NYPL).
