Graz: Galerie Bleich-Rossi, 1988. First Edition. Octavo. One of a series of related artist’s catalogues (1987-1988) produced by Martin Kippenberger in hommage to the 1972 Sonnabend catalogue for Piero Manzoni. This iteration published to accompany Kippenberger's exhibition at Kunsthalle Winterthur (Oct. 11–Nov. 12, 1988), reproducing dozens of preparatory drawings for sculptural works, many on hotel stationery. Introduced by a rather savage review of an earlier Kippenberger exhibition, printed in both German and English (“The irony has become hackneyed”). (Koch 62). Minor scuffing to illustrated wrappers; near fine.
