Collection of audiovisual and photographic documentation of performances by the Kipper Kids, as well as related papers and props. Background The performance art duo Kipper Kids was a collaborative project by Brian Routh (1948-2018, England) and Martin von Haselberg (b. 1949, Argentina) active from approximately 1971 to 1982.
The Kipper Kids were a duo composed of Martin Rochus Sebastian von Haselberg and Brian Routh, two artists known for the extreme and often comedic performance art they made together in the 1970s and after. Von Haselberg lives and works in New York, and Routh most recently lived in Leicester, England. From 1971, the duo were also known as Harry and Harry Kipper.
After inventing the character of Harry Kipper with Martin Von Haselberg on an acid trip in Frankfurt, they developed the iconic Kipper Kids. Routh embarked on solo work primarily in the mid-1970s. Von Haselberg and Routh reunited in 1977 to appear as the Kipper Kids in a film by Richard Elfman called Forbidden Zone , which was released in 1982. [7]
