This catalogue was published on the occasion of the exhibition Richard Prince: Protest Paintings and is accompanied by Richard Prince's essay 'Half- Mast', an extract from his memoirs "Tell Me Everything". This is the first publication dedicated to this seminal body of work realised between 1989 -1995. Painted onto a vertical canvas in the shape of a protest placard, the Protest Paintings alternate between monochromatic minimalism and richly layered colourful abstraction. Incorporating printed and handwritten jokes, as well as mined pattern details silkscreened onto the canvas, these paintings exemplify Prince's practice of appropriation. Subverting the use of symbols, texts and gestures, the paintings are not only a response to the social and political climate of the post-war era, they emphasize the inextricable web of politics, patriotism and devotion at the heart of American identity. Featuring paintings from public and private collections, this catalogue demonstrates the breadth of Prince's creativity in this singular body of work.

Naked Nurses

JMc & GHB

Old friends and veterans of Manhattan's late 70s downtown scene, writer and editor Glenn O'Brien and artist and collector Richard Prince share a love of the surface flotsam of American life--"we are both PhDs in American shtick," as O'Brien puts it. This beautifully bound, slip-cased volume marks their first collaboration, setting O'Brien's sparse verse alongside Prince's equally reduced black blobs in a mutual vocabulary of simplicity and humor of gesture.

Nurse of Greenmeadow, Dude Ranch Nurse, Jet Set Nurse, Tender Nurse, Washington Nurse, Aloha Nurse, New England Nurse, Surgical Nurse, Man-Crazy Nurse, Nympho Nurse, Park Avenue Nurse... So many pulp novels, so many nurses, so much acrylic paint dribbled and masked over their silk-screened mouths, eyes, hair, ubiquitous white uniforms. Constrained sexuality? Bloodsucker art? Richard Prince--Conceptual artist, bibliophile, reinventor of the Marlboro Man--has done it again, in this, his latest series of paintings. You can never be sure just what he's done, and why it feels so creepy, but there you have it. And all wrapped up with a compulsive bedside manner. Introduction by Matthew Collings. Paperback, 7.5 x 10 in. / 80 pgs / 37 color. Item E20434

Prince has pioneered appropriation since the mid-1970s, mining images from mass media, advertising, and entertainment to subvert and redefine concepts of authorship and ownership.The New Portraits series updates this strategy and continues Prince's exploration of photography through the platform of Instagram. Drawn to certain users, Prince traverses an illimitable network of links, jumping from one account to another, scanning through postings, reading endless texts, discarding, collecting, commenting, and cementing. He captures images that appear to be products of the medium itself; these portraits belong to an infinite stream of image distribution, catalyzing exhibitionism and voyeurism. The artist's comments - non sequiturs, jokes, quotes, oxymorons, and emojis - embolden his authorship in this enlivened new direction in portraiture. In a fusion of painting and photography, image and text, and authorship and freedom, intervention becomes composition and the written word becomes brushstroke, handled with a signature. The only catalogue to document this particular body of work thus far, the unique artists' book features Prince's recent topical text "Bird Talk," and is housed in a hinged, screw-bound acrylic cover, accompanied by a bubble-wrap slipcase. 1st edition of 1000 Screw Bound Acrylic Hardcover; 64 pages

Richard Prince: New Portraits

Richard Prince: Everyday

Richard Prince's artist's book, juxtaposing appropriated images of Bettie Page with paintings and drawings by Franz Kline. The premise for this artistic mash-up is that Kline, the expressionist painter, and Irving and Paula Klaw, the pin-up photographers, both had studios in the same building in 1950s New York and that Kline, smitten with the Klaw's most famous subject, used Page as a model for his pen and ink studies. Unpaginated [61 pages]; b&w and color illustrations throughout; 11.25 x 14.25 inches.
