description

Artist's book by Martin Kippenberger featuring texts and three photographs. "Martin Kippenberger found himself at the turn of 1985/86 in the Rio jail. When he went to the Copa, for his daily exercise, he couldn't believe his eyes, but his belief. The T-shirts (prison-garb) seemed to him to have slogans that were too primitive, until he realized that these were codes. He deciphered them. BOY, BOY, BOY." --from the introduction. Text in English and German. Additional reference: "Kippenberger," Taschen Verlag, Köln, pp. 230.
