An American photographer and painter, Richard Prince is one of the most famous figures on the international art scene since the appearance of his work in the 1970s. His work has been exhibited at the world's most prestigious institutions, such as the Whitney Museum in New York (1992), the Kunsthalle Zurich (2001), the Guggenheim Museum in New York (2007), the Kunsthaus Bregenz (2014), and more recently the Louis Vuitton Foundation (2018). From October 2019 to January 2020, Richard Prince presented the exhibition Portraits at the Detroit Museum of Contemporary Art. After a childhood near Boston, Richard Prince arrived in New York in the early 1970s and found work in the Time Life archives department, where he was responsible for organizing newspaper clippings by subject or author. His cut-and-paste of newspapers and magazines led him to become interested in the remnants that constitute advertisements, announcements, and comics that he began to collect. He mingled with a group of artists—including Robert Longo, Cindy Sherman, Sherrie Levine, and John Baldessari—based in the city. Their practice of appropriation and subversion of advertising and cultural images from this new consumer society aligned with his own. During a 1977 exhibition titled Pictures, American critic and curator Douglas Crimp theorized and described this movement as the Pictures Generation. Prince’s deeply postmodern practice consists of recycling popular culture (as well as certain more marginal cultures) and a fine, often humorous deconstruction of American imagery. To this end, Prince uses advertising images that he re-photographs, recut, enlarge, and/or reorganize into collages. Photographic ready-mades that toy with authorship and copyright, his works tend to reveal and mock certain stereotypes that shaped the American myth and fed the collective imagination. In the early 1980s, he gained fame with his famous Cowboys series drawn from Marlboro advertisements (1980–1984) idealizing masculine virility, later with the Gangs, focusing on motorcycle subculture and their lightly dressed girlfriends. From 1986, he began painting his Joke Paintings, reproducing on canvases typical juvenile jokes from popular culture. In 2002, he began the famous Nurses series dedicated to the eroticized and unsettling nurses who populate American pulp literature. True objects of worship in the United States, the 1960s customized cars, which he reproduces and then repaints on the hoods, also inspired works titled Car Hoods that oscillate between paintings and sculptures.
