"Arbeiten mit Papier [Works with Paper] was published to accompany the exhibitions "Was ist Ihre Lieblingsminderheit. Wenn beneiden Sie am meisten" [Which is your favourite minority. Who do you envy most] at the Galerie Klein in Bonn from 13 December 1985 to 24 January 1986 and "Nur Angst vor Frauen die Samt tragen (seidene Schlüpfer sind keine Ausrede für hautfarbene BHs)" [Only Afraid of Women who Wear Velvet (silk panties are no excuse for flesh-coloured bras] at the Oldenburger Kunstverein from 26 January to 28 February 1986. Between the illustrated pages showing collages and drawings by Martin Kippenberger from the period 1983-1985, there are texts in German and English written by artist friends, printed on grey paper: a parable by Michael Krebber: "Titel die für Zeichnungen nicht geeignet sind" [Titles Unsuitable for Drawings] by Martin Kippenberger and Albert Oehlen; "Trommel" [Drum] by Franz Erhard Walther; "Ein Mann steht an der Elbe..." A Man Stands by the Elbe...] by Hubert Kiecol, "Die drei einschneidenden Seiten des Herrn Kippenberger" [The Three Incisive Sides of Mr. Kippenberger by Meuser and a newspaper article on Kippenberger with Kippenberger's handwritten remark "idiot vourself." The photograph on the front cover shows Martin Kippenberger doing a headstand during the exhibition opening of "Wahrheit ist Arbeit" [Truth is Work]." - Koch
