ABOUT

RARE /SIGNED /OUT OF PRINT

Richard Prince Books.com is the latest project by U.K. based photographic artist Max Malandrino.

The work of Richard Prince has influenced Max's artistic career since early 1990 when he first discovered appropriation art.

As well as detailed information on the various books and exhibition catalogues by Richard Prince you can now buy a wide selection of the rare and O.O.P. Richard Prince titles online at Richard Prince Books. The site also showcases Max's latest collection of photographic images titled 'Richard Prints' which focus on Richard Prince's artwork, books, catalogues and related ephemera. By assembling and juxtaposing these carefully selected books and reference materials, Max is attempting to create a direct photographic continuation of subject and it's subject matter. The viewer is presented with a photographic arranged 'version' of an existing re-photographed image.

Max has now collated his 'Richard Prints' range of images into a limited edition book which is titled Richard Prints. (All The Best) Books By Richard Prince. A Photographic Study of the Books of Richard Prince by Max Malandrino. The limited edition book is co-published with Paul Stolper Gallery and was released at the Printed Matter New York Art Book Fair in 2010. It is available through The Serpentine Gallery bookshop, The Saatchi Gallery London, ccc. Japan, The ICA Bookshop, Louis Vuitton Bookshop Bond Street, Tate Modern, Christophe Daviet-Thery Bookshop, Claire de Rouen Books, Pygmalion Books at the Bibliotheque Nationale de France and BookMarc by Marc Jacobs. Please visit the CONTACT / ADDITIONAL ITEMS page to buy the book.
