Condition

This work is in very good condition overall. The junctures of the joined canvases are slightly uneven, and there is evidence of fraying, inherent to the artist's working method. All other variations in the surface texture are also inherent. Upon close inspection, there is evidence of fine cracking scattered throughout, most noticeable in the bottom right and left panels and along the extreme turning edges with associated pinpoint losses. Framed under Plexiglas.

"A child of ’68, Prince embraced rebellion as a state of mind. The generational belief in challenging authority as a way of life—a necessity born in anti-war marches on Washington, race riots throughout the United States, and student protests around the work—informs the very fabric of his art. As Prince’s career has unfolded over the past thirty-some years, each new body of work is a cultural provocation, an invitation to think anew of an already accepted reality." Nancy Spector, "Nowhere Man" in Exh. Cat., New York, Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Richard Prince, 2007, p. 22
