EGON ZIPPEL

ARTIST.

He was born in TIMISOARA, RUMANIA, 1960 to GERMAN parents. When NICOLAI CEAUSESCU rose to power in 1964, the ZIPPELS decided that an URGENT relocation was necessary and chose to settle in
HEIDELBERG, Germany to begin life anew.

EGON studied GRAPHIC DESIGN at the UNIVERSITY OF MANNHEIM; then received a Fulbright Scholarship to GEORGETOWN, Washington D.C. 1984-85 and the UNIVERSITY OF AUSTIN. In the years that followed, Egon studied computer graphics at the NEW YORK INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY and continued his postgraduate studies at the INSTITUTE OF NEW MEDIA at the STAEDEL ART ACADEMY in FRANKFURT 1993-94.

In the early 90s he moved to ITALY and returned to NYC in 1996. He also maintains a studio in BERLIN.

Egon believes in both PREDETERMINATION & FREE WILL. He wrestles with this CONTRADICTION daily and keeps his life COMPLEX.

BEN BRAUN is

SALES AGENT.

He works for SUBMARINE: a sales/production company specializing in DOCS and FILMS in NYC.

With quite a pedigree, the partners have worked with director GREG ARAKI, video artists NAM JUNE PAIK, played in punk bands with THURSTON MOORE & JIM JARMUSCH. BEN is in the video for SONIC YOUTH’S SACRED TRICKSTER.

They also own the rights to HORROR comic CREEPY & EERIE.

Recent film distribution projects have included POLANSKI’S lost documentary WEEKEND OF A CHAMPION [which is very apt as BEN LOVES CARS], the Oscar winning 20 FEET FROM STARDOM and the OSCAR nominated CHASING ICE, BLACKFISH and CUTIE AND THE BOXER among innumerable others.

BB also oversaw production of the 30th Anniversary DVD release of CULT classic, Charlie Ahearn’s WILD STYLE.

Ben can be found at most major film festivals selling his wares or Pennsylvania or the Submarine office in Chinatown. He may or may not be wearing R.J MACREADY’S jacket from JOHN CARPENTER’S THE THING.

Check out some of his work below.
