Richard Prince Untitled (de Kooning), 2008 Collage with color offset lithograph, hand-cutting, hand-painting and assemblage with extensive additions in graphite mounted on on inset board. Hand signed and numbered with the letter L (from A-Z) by artist on the front Frame Included Richard Prince’s “de Kooning” series is a process of interaction and appropriation with the works of ground-breaking imagery of the Abstract Expressionist master, Willem de Kooning. The idea for these edgy, Oedipal works came to him when he was leafing through a catalogue of de Kooning’s "Women" series. Prince started sketching over the paintings, and, as time went on, he began applying fragments cut and pasted from catalogues and vintage porn...

Richard Prince, The Greeting Card Jokes #1: The Fireman, 2011 As new condition, never framed or displayed. Hand signed and numbered by the artist, verso. Private collection (UK). Signed and numbered by artist in ink on interior of card. From a limited edition of 100. 6.25 x 8.5 in (15.9 x 21.6 cm) Notes: Incorporating jokes reflective of the “borscht belt” humor prevalent in the 1950's, Prince's Joke works tap into social preoccupations of the national subconscious. Prior to Prince's use of the jokes, many had infiltrated popular culture, gradually losing their original authors to become adopted by a largely oral tradition. Beginning in 1984, Richard Prince began assembling one-line gag cartoons and ‘borscht belt’ jokes from the 1950's which he redrew onto small pieces of paper. "Artists were casting sculptures in bronze, making huge paintings, talking about prices and clothes and cars and spending vast amounts of money. So I wrote jokes on little pieces of paper and sold them for $10 each". Following the hand-written jokes and subsequent works in which cartoon images were silk-screened onto canvas, in 1987 Prince adopted a more radical, formulaic strategy of mechanically reproducing classic one liners and gags onto a flat monochrome canvas. Richard Prince's work has been among the most innovative art produced in the United States during the past 30 years. His deceptively simple act in 1977 of rephotographing advertising images and presenting them as his own ushered in an entirely new, critical approach to art-making — one that questioned notions of originality and the privileged status of the unique aesthetic object. Prince's technique involves appropriation; he pilfers freely from the vast image bank of popular culture to create works that simultaneously embrace and critique a quintessentially American sensibility: the Marlboro Man...

Artist: Richard Prince Title: Untitled (from Upstate) Year: 1998 Medium: Ektacolor photograph on Kodak Professional paper Edition: 8; signed, dated and numbered (verso) Sheet: 20 x 24 inches (50.8 x 61 cm) Frame: Yes Certificate of Authenticity included This early, vintage work from 1998 by Richard Prince is part of his "Upstate" series in which the artist re-photographed images of women taken from '70's biker magazines. Removed from the context of biker subculture, these portraits of bikers' girlfriends underscore the idea of gender as performance, and of sexuality as commodity. The "Upstate" series typifies Prince's process of making art through the reproduction and displacement of pop culture iconography, often with a touch of mordant humor, an approach that has been deeply influential in the development of appropriation art since the 1960s, and which has invited comparisons between Prince and contemporaries such as Barbara Kruger, Sherrie Levine, and Jack Goldstein...

Artist: Richard Prince Title: Untitled (from Upstate) Year: 1998 Medium: Ektacolor photograph on Kodak Professional paper Edition: 8; signed, dated and numbered (verso) Sheet: 20 x 24 inches (50.8 x 61 cm) Frame: Yes Certificate of Authenticity included This early, vintage work from 1998 by Richard Prince is part of his "Upstate" series. In 1996 Richard Prince moved to upstate New York and began a new series of creative investigations. After almost two decades of making work derived from images and phrases that already exist in popular culture, he took his camera outside and photographed the banal details of his everyday environment. Although this could be viewed as a radical departure, to Prince there is no essential difference between making photos of other photos and making photos of the world at large. He is always paying attention to what is around him with intense scrutiny. On one level, the "Upstate" photos chronicle a landscape of economic decline in an unremarkable semirural area. Pictures of above-ground swimming pools and melancholy images of abandoned-looking basketball hoops perched on the edge of overgrown fields suggest a region cut off from the cultural mainstream. However, Prince finds quiet moments of beauty in these overlooked and undervalued features of the landscape. The "Upstate" series typifies Prince's process of making art through the reproduction and displacement of pop culture iconography, often with a touch of mordant humor, an approach that has been deeply influential in the development of appropriation art since the 1960s, and which has invited comparisons between Prince and contemporaries such as Barbara Kruger, Sherrie Levine, and Jack Goldstein...
