Publisher's Description
In his latest book, artist Richard Prince documents his work, which is a unique interpretation of the commercial culture which surrounds us in our daily lives. From New Yorker cartoons to porn magazines, American nostalgia to punk rock, Prince refigures and thereby redefines these images, often juxtaposing different visual elements to create a powerful and cutting interpretation of the visual media. The book itself is formatted as a work which is continuous with Prince's oeuvre. A close reading of the book engages the reader in a fascinating process, as Prince leads from one image to the next, articulating a current and astute criticism of the culture of commerce.
