Richard prince card

THIS IS THE SHOW’S CARD – A ‘GIVE-AWAY’ PHOTOGRAPH/PRINTED ON 1/4 in. solid artboard.
8-1/2 x 11-1/2 x 1/4 in. in other words – it is a limited, albeit large run – 3-D OBJECT !!
It sure ain’t no slim paper poster !! It’s almost a mounted photograph. It’s a contemporary multiple, low cost. i.e. free – a ‘give-away’ – high end production – ‘fan’ base collectible.
It’s also got a – raised typeface – on the reverse – the side with the show’s info.

The type looks exactly like LETTRASET. almost as thick.
He only signed 2 at the opening – just as he left.

from the home page: SUNDAY NOV 9 2008

NATE LOWMAN brought MARY-KATE OLSEN to the RICHARD PRINCE opening at GOGO !! which was fun – & – where the new PRINCE paintings left the NURSES behind, and kinda spit out a hot mix of rastafarian washboard abs meets buttnaked hot chicks – each painting priced to go: in the 1 to 3 million bucks range, depending on size !!
& yes, I bet they all sell, no matter who’s dying & crying – if you KNOW your art – it’s still the only real savvy place to park your bucks – mega or otherwise – witness: BILL BRADY of ATM – who just sold out ALL the TOMOO GOKITAS in his current show !! *
and so, cause we’re still in such a good mood from the ALPHA BETA music show – FATIMA SANTOS & CLAY ROSS – MATUTO !!

LISTEN UP !! – everybody is calling the new JOE BRADLEY show up at CANADA, the “genius” – show !! – so if YOU can’t follow the art world money trail – don’t blame me – all you dumbass wannabes !! *

UP-DATE: THURS NOV 20 2008 – THE STATION – MIAMI 2008 !!

NATE LOWMAN will play a starring role in the upcoming ART BASEL MIAMI BEACH WEEKEND !!

NATE and SHAMIM MOMIN, a WHITNEY curator – are co-curating a ‘pop-up’ exhibition, called ‘THE STATION’.

from advance P.R. – “The exhibition brings both emerging and established artists into a dialog in the unique
environment of a recently constructed building in Midtown Miami. The 12,000 sq. ft. interior is still completely raw and unbuilt, with the vestiges of construction lending the event a sense of flux.” !!

and, looky !! here – JOE BRADLEY, will be playing (no doubt) – a starring role in that exhibit !!

some of the other artists include: RITA ACKERMANN, DIANA Al-HADID, LISA ANNE AUERBACH, DIKE BLAIR, LIZZI BOUGATSOS, OLAF BREUNING, PETER COFFIN, DEVON COSTELLO, GARDAR EIDE EINARSSON, JONAH FREEMAN,
TERENCE KOH, JUSTIN LOWE, RYAN McGINLEY, NEW HUMANS, ROB PRUITT, STERLING RUBY, HAIM STEINBACH, and others. SO HIGHLITE – THAT EVENT !!!
