Richard Prince — 1982-1984/2002
Richard Prince

1982-1984/2002

1982

A striking chromogenic print by Richard Prince that bridges two distinct periods of the artist's practice, the work exemplifies his ongoing interrogation of appropriation, authorship, and the commodification of images. Printed with full margins, the photograph engages with Prince's signature strategy of re-photographing found imagery, challenging notions of originality and ownership. The work's dual dating signals a deliberate revisiting and recontextualization of earlier source material, underscoring the fluid and cyclical nature of meaning in Prince's conceptual framework.
