  DNZB / BIOGRAPHY
Howard Karl Kippenberger was born at Ladbrooks, south of Christchurch, on 28 January 1897.
Kippenberger’s first attempt to take Cassino was very narrowly defeated, and while planning a second attack he was seriously wounded on 2 March 1944 when he stepped on an anti-personnel mine while descending Mt Trocchio and lost both his feet.
Kippenberger held it together for its first difficult decade, during which there was a threat of its being disestablished and attempts to block the publication of three of the volumes.

 Do not alight while train is in motion
The one, Karl Valentin, used the inscriptions of two signs formerly found in three languages on trains - "do not lean out of the window while train is in motion" and "do not alight before train comes to a standstill" - and mixed them into a paradoxical truth.
Kippenberger's steadfastness was enormous, yet also complicated as one can conclude from the representations of feet in his work.
Kippenberger is not only Spiderman, eggman, Fred the Frog and streetlight-Santa Claus, he now also plays "little piece of furniture" and slips into the artificial individuailities of interiors.

 DNZB / BIOGRAPHY
In a campaign that highlighted the command failings of the New Zealand Division, Kippenberger was one of the few senior New Zealand officers to emerge with his reputation enhanced.
He received the rank of major general, and in September 1944 was appointed to command the unit responsible for the smooth relocation of prisoners of war to New Zealand.
On his return to New Zealand in 1946 Kippenberger was appointed editor in chief of the War History Branch of the Department of Internal Affairs.

On the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of Kippenberger's birth, this month sees the opening of a major retrospective of his entire career at the Museum fur Neue Kunst ZKM in Karlsruhe, with additional stops in Vienna and Eindhoven.
Kippenberger had a one-man show at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art in 1991, and his massive Happy End of Franz Kafka's "Amerika" (first shown in 1994 in Rotterdam) was included in the 1999 Carnegie International in Pittsburgh and mounted a year later at the Renaissance Society in Chicago.
The remarks by six colleagues of Kippenberger's that follow touch on the artist's famous generosity to students and friends, yet they also acknowledge his notorious ability to alienate and aggravate his audience.

 New Martin Kippenberger Exhibition Opens At Tate Modern - London City Guide news
Although German artist Martin Kippenberger is one of the most influential artists of the last thirty years, his work, until now, has remained largely unfamiliar to British audiences.
Kippenberger’s tables and chairs, set on a green basketball court, represent Kafka’s description of the series of interviews which await immigrants in the USA.
Sympathische Kommunistin (Likeable Communist Woman, 1983), shows Kippenberger’s interest in socialist art and his provocative, and often humorous, way of dealing with political matters – Kippenberger never sides with one cause; his view is always balanced, often through irony.
