RICHARD PRINCE (b. 1949)
Prince redefined authorship by appropriating images—Marlboro cowboys, Instagram selfies, pulp fiction covers—blurring the line between original and copy. A provocateur of postmodern art, his work questions desire, identity, and mass media. His work is in the Whitney, MoMA, and Tate."I never had a style. I’ve just tried to keep my distance from what looked like art."
