Richard Prince Prints and Multiples
American, b. 1949
Richard Prince (American, b.1949) is a painter and photographer, best known as a pioneer of Appropriation Art. Born in the Panama Canal Zone, Prince grew up in Massachusetts and moved to New York in 1977, where he prepared magazine clippings for Time-Life, spurring his interest in advertising and consumer imagery. He began creating works based on various pop culture images taken from magazines and newspapers, often re-photographing and manipulating the images in his own works. Considered by many the father of Appropriation Art, the majority of his works includes scandalous subject matter and has provoked controversy around issues of copyright in the art world. His famous Cowboys series of 1980s photographs, for example, was taken from Marlboro ad campaigns. In the mid-1980s, Prince shifted his interest from images to text, evident in his Jokes series, displaying appropriated jokes in ironic works. From his home in Upstate New York, Prince created his late Nurse Paintings series, inspired by pulp romance novels, as well as his own photographs of everyday rural and suburban life. He acquired an abandoned farmhouse near his home in 2001, which he turned into an installation site he called Second House, installing the interior with his sculptures, paintings, and his own books; the structure has been purchased by the Guggenheim Museum in New York, but was struck by lightning and destroyed in 2007. In the fall of that year, Prince’s work was the subject of a major retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum. Prince currently lives and works in Upstate New York.to

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...

Flea, the Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist once said of Pettibon's Black Flag illustrations and iconic logo: "Before I knew what Black Flag was I remember walking around Hollywood and seeing Raymond's flyers and being like, 'What the fuck is that?'… Those flyers made me feel like something is going on and it's romantic and it's mysterious and it's heavy and I don't know what it is but I wanna know."
About Raymond Pettibon (Americanb. 1957)
Raymond Pettibon is a contemporary American artist known for his stylized ink drawings combining images and text. His inventive narratives blend historical content with consumer culture to yield incisive critiques of contemporary society. “I was making my work as transparent as possible, without equivocations, without calling attention to itself, without apology,” he explained. “There's a lot of conventions in the art world that are not to be transgressed, but my economy of means doesn't abide by those strictures.” Born Raymond Ginn on June 16, 1957 in Tucson, AZ, the artist is self-taught, but cites drawings by William Blake, Edward Hopper, Francisco Goya, and John Sloan as instructive to his practice. Deriving inspiration from comics, cartoons, and other pop culture iconography, Pettibon began designing album covers and ephemera for his brother’s band Black Flag in the mid-1970s. He went on to produce cover art for Sonic Youth, the Minutemen...

Fulton Ryder After Dark
By Richard Prince
Located in Toronto, Ontario
Richard Prince (b. 1949) is one of the most innovative and polemic American artists. Whether you associate him with The Pictures Generation, Post-Modernism, or appropriation art, his contribution is undeniable.
Prince has worked in a variety of formats over the course of his career, yet each of his series shares a similar approach: extract an element from America's visual culture and elevate it similar to Duchamp's urinal.
Prince's key ingredients come through mass media. Whether it's nurses from the covers of pulp fiction novels, macho cowboys in Marlboro ads, or supermodel selfies, Prince reflects and subverts the gauntlet of American imagery.
Prince is an avid book collector and bibliophile, owning a massive collection of American postwar literature. He began appropriating pulp fiction paperback covers with his "Nurse" series first exhibited in 2003. Prince would scan the cover of pulp paperbacks, transfer them to canvas and paint, collage, and/or otherwise modify the covers. "Nurses" enhanced and subverted female nurses as a rampant source of fetishized sexual objectification in American adult pulp fiction.
In "Fulton Ryder After Dark", Prince continues to confront prevalent depictions of forbidden sexuality seen through the male gaze. The work consists of two images side by side in a diptych style.
On the right is a smaller image containing the (modified) cover of a novel "Fulton Ryder After Dark", while on the left is the enlarged painting originally used for the cover devoid of any text. The book cover titled "Fulton Ryder After Dark" is clearly from the retro-horror genre of pulp fiction, featuring a mysterious pair of floating hands ominously emerging from a blue background and violently strangling a woman. Dressed in a low cut white silk night gown...

Richard Prince "Greeting Cards #3, Canada Dry"
By Richard Prince
Located in Toronto, Ontario
Richard Prince (b. 1949) is one of the most innovative, influential and polemic American artists. Whether you associate him with The Pictures Generation, post-modernism or Appropriation Art, his contribution is undeniable.
Prince has worked in a variety of formats over the course of his career, yet each of his iconic and provocative series shares a similar approach. Extract an element from the American vernacular culture and position it in a way similar to Duchamp's urinal.
Prince started to work with jokes in 1986. These works were a defiant contradiction to the reigning hierarchies in the art world perpetuated by Minimalism or Neo-Expressionist painting. Prince's works from this series forced the viewer to become a reader...often having to read "jokes" that were corny or not particularly funny and seemed highly out-of place in a gallery setting.
The earliest of Prince's jokes were similar to this print - they appeared to be simple handwritten notes. Their simple, or anti, aesthetic seemed to be simultaneously parodying tropes established by Conceptual and Minimalist artists of the previous decade (Yoko Ono comes to mind)
