Quotes By Martin Kippenberger

I'm not interested in provoking people, but only in trying to be consoling.

A good artist has less time than ideas.

What I'm working on is for people to be able to say that Kippenberger had this really good mood.

My style is where you see the individual and where a personality is communicated through actions, decisions, single objects and facts, where the whole draws together to form a history.

You really can't bring about anything new with art.

Nobody helps anybody.

Assuming roles is something that simply won't work for me, since I don't have a style. None at all.

What people will say about me then - or maybe not say - will be the only thing that finally counts.

Entertainment is in art like color in pictures.

I can't cut off an ear everyday. Do the Van Gogh here and the Mozart there. Anyway it's exhausting enough always having to check up on what one is really doing!.

Entertainment and art are not isolated.
