The collaboration was unveiled at the SS08 runway show, which opened with 12 models (including Naomi Campbell) dressed as nurses, each with a letter emblazoned on their hats to spell out ‘Louis Vuitton’. It was a nod to Prince’s famous Nurse paintings (as seen on Sonic Youth’s Sonic Nurse cover). As for the bags, they featured his Jokes series – their messages printed over a reimagined, washed out monogram, with snakeskin accents for good measure. More recently, one of Prince’s Joke works was used in Raf Simons’ debut campaign for Calvin Klein, appearing in the art gallery backdrop of the images. MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST Richard Prince belongs to the generation of American artists who grew up in the 1950s at the time of the explosion of mass media (television, cinema, magazines). He appeared on the international scene during the late 1970s alongside Cindy Sherman, Sherrie Levine and Barbara Kruger, as a major proponent of appropriation art. He deconstructed the mechanisms of representation and communication promoted by American popular culture. In 1977 his practice took a radical turn when he started re-using advertising images, which he photographed and appropriated. Cutting out the text logo, he reframed the images, creating blurred effects and emphasising colour. Working largely in series form, his subjects were models, cowboys and women on motorbikes. One of his most well-known series working in this vein is the Cowboys series, appropriating the advertising campaign images of Marlboro cigarettes. *I ONLY SELL 100% AUTHENTIC MERCHANDISE PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER LISTINGS, SEE MY FEEDBACK AND A LONGTERM ACCOUNT.
