Exhibition // Richard Prince – Same Man

One of the most influential US artists from the 1980s onwards and a central figure of American ‘The Pictures Generation’, Richard Prince (b. 1949) often uses banal images from our entertainment and consumption culture, which he twists and transforms in a way where the ordinary is "uplifted" into something both strange and seductive.

The exhibition entitled SAME MAN is the first presentation of Richard Prince in Scandinavia presenting 89 works, many of which are from the artist’s own extensive archive. The exhibition includes, among other things, his now famous ‘rephotographs’, which he creates by taking pictures of existing images typically sourced from glossy magazines. Using the cropping of the camera and a multitude of nuances in the form of colour, lighting, focus or even tape, Prince opens the way for a fresh interpretation of the images.
