About the Item

Richard Prince Angie Dickenson (Angie from Untitled Portfolio) from the estate of Vera G. List, 1986 Large Color Polaroid (w/Barbara Gladstone & Sotheby's Gallery Labels) Signed and numbered 5/5 on front. Bears Barbara Gladstone Gallery label Bears Sotheby's stickers on the back of the frame Frame included: elegantly framed in a museum quality white wood frame with UV plexiglass This work has impressive provenance as it was acquired from a sale of the Estate of Vera G. List, the art collector and philanthropist and founder of the legendary Vera G. List print program at Lincoln Center. It bears the original Barbara Gladstone Gallery label on the verso of the frame, as well as the Sotheby's sale stickers from 2001. Richard Prince’s Untitled (Angie Dickinson) belongs to a series of pictures created in the mid-1980s in which the artist appropriated images from erotic movies, subsequently adding text based elements. Gleaned from Brian De Palma’s Dress to Kill (1980), the image in Angie Dickinson refers to the brutal murder of the actress – slashed in an elevator – as elucidated by the printed text above (‘Angie Dickinson pays for her sins in Dress to Kill’). Prince’s attention in Misty Regan is transferred to the actress’s expression of sexual excitement in a close-up from one of Regan’s erotic scenes from the eighties. It was during this decade that the artist focused on cinema as a ready-made source for his art and a subject for his writings. In this regard, in 1985 Prince wrote Anyone Who is Anyone, a short fictional story in which the main character is obsessed with cinema: ‘For one year he rented movies – VCR videos - and watched them on a twenty-five-inch colour Sony monitor at her apartment. He watched the movies alone, late at night after she had gone to bed. He watched two-hundred-and-seventy-five movies that year’ (R. Prince, ‘Anyone Who Is Anyone’, reproduced in R. Brooks, J. Rian and L. Sante, Richard Prince, London 2003, p. 122). This work is matted and framed and in excellent condition. In original hand made wood frame with Barbara Gladstone Gallery label on the back, as well as original Sotheby's stickers.

Robert Longo Biography: Robert Longo was born in 1953 in Brooklyn and grew up in Long Island, New York. He graduated high school in 1970, weeks after the Ohio National Guard massacred several students at Kent State University who were protesting the U.S. invasion of Cambodia. One of those killed was a former classmate of Longo’s, and his body was shown in a Pulitzer Prize-winning photograph that was seen across the world. The event shocked Longo, triggering his interest in political activism and media imagery. In 1972, Longo received a grant to study restoration and art history in Florence. While touring the museums of Europe, he realized he wanted to make, rather than restore art. In 1973, Longo enrolled at Buffalo State College, where he worked for artists Paul Sharits and Hollis Frampton, who introduced him to structuralist filmmaking. Along with Charles Clough, Longo also co-founded Hallwalls (1974–ongoing), an alternative non-profit art exhibition space where he organized shows and talks with artists such as John Baldessari, Lynda Benglis, Robert Irwin, Joan Jonas, Bruce Nauman, and Richard Serra. At Buffalo State, Longo started a friendship–that still exists to this day–with Cindy Sherman, and in 1977 the two moved to New York together, where Longo began working as a studio assistant to Vito Acconci and Dennis Oppenheim. That year he was included in the exhibition Pictures at Artist’s Space, curated by Douglas Crimp, which showcased work by a group of five young artists who were engaged with the politics of image-making, drawing from advertisements, newspapers, film, and television. The “Pictures Generation,” as they became known, included artists such as Cindy Sherman, Richard Prince, Louise Lawler, David Salle, and drew from semiotics and poststructuralist theory to investigate the way meaning is made and circulated in modern society. Their work often critiqued the anaesthetizing power of consumer capitalism and the indoctrinating effects of mass media. At his first solo show at Metro Pictures in 1981, Longo presented his charcoal and graphite Men in the Cities drawings, which instantly became icons of the “Pictures Generation,” and some of the most recognizable artworks of the 1980s. Longo performed in New York rock clubs with the band Menthol Wars with Richard Prince, throughout the 1980s. During that period, he also designed numerous album covers, including Glenn Branca’s The Ascension (1981) and The Replacements’ Tim (1985). In 1986, he directed his first music video for New Order’s chart-topping song Bizarre Love Triangle, and the following year directed The One I Love, a video for R.E.M.’s first hit single. Longo began working with diverse materials at increasingly ambitious scales. His Combines series, first exhibited in 1983, incorporated materials such as paint, graphite, wood, plaster, cast bronze, and steel in works that were part-painting, part-sculptural reliefs.
