📗 Libro en inglés RICHARD PRINCE

One of America`s best-known and most popular artists, Richard Prince combines the media of painting, artists books and photography to offer peculiar views into the margins of US culture. Along with Cindy Sherman and others, he defined the `postmodern` generation. Prince`s highly idiosyncratic subject matter - such as one-line jokes in the style of 1960s cartoons, Marlboro cowboys and motorcycle gangs - is central to his work. In the late 1970s Prince was working for the cutting services of Time Life publications in New York, and began to re-photograph advertisements and compose his own pictures from this highly-familiar pop imagery. Recently his work has taken an unexpected turn, and the artist has emerged as a consummate painter, producing some of the most unusual and admired works in the current painting scene.
