PETER 2. 1987. WITHDRAWN SOON AFTER PUBLICATION – JORG SCHLICK’S COPY

Vienna: Gallerie Peter Pakesch, 1987
24 x 17.5cm, 32pp. Printed dustjacket. The first version of this catalogue by Kippenberger which contains b/w images of 14 sculptural works and an interview between the artist and Joachim Lottmann. This was one of a series of artist’s books that parodied in design an earlier Piero Manzoni publication from Sonnebend 1972.

This catalogue was issued twice. This the first example was withdrawn by the artist because he felt that the images were too dark and most of the printing did not get distributed. As a result this is very scarce. Fine example.

This example came from Jorg Schlick’s library. Noted and illustrated as part of Kippenberger Books (Koch) Nr 53.
