SIMON CERIGO BEGS TO DIFFER WITH THE RECENT “DISPOSABLE ART” TRASH ASSESSMENT – CHARLIE FINCH – JUST POSTED ON ARTNET – OF THE NEWLY OPENED RICHARD PRINCE RETROSPECTIVE AT THE GUGGENHEIM . . . . . .<\/p>\n
SIMON CERIGO, artlovers-critic-at-large – a man of few, but, well thought-out words, writes: <\/p>\n
RICHARD PRINCE’S retrospective at the GUGGENHEIM is a great show despite the overbearing ‘hipness’ that pervades this elegant conceptualist’s art objects.<\/p>\n
Though I have been a fan of the joke paintings since the early 90’s – I have also noted his relentless self-promoting and career moves. But seeing this big & diverse survey of his work, so well organized, and hung beautifully, changed my mind about the value of his aesthetic position.<\/p>\n
Even though I am not totally convinced by the ‘Nurse’ paintings – (WALTER ROBINSON’S appropriation of 50’s pulp illustrations in the early 80’s was more effective) – the ‘Marlboro Man’ photos made me a believer.<\/p>\n
