Bernard Faucon builds scenes with mannequins before photographing them; John Pfahl makes physical additions to landscapes prior to exposure; Victor Schrager compresses objects and reproductions into constructed still life; Don Rodan works through the Polaroid SX-70 format; and Richard Prince takes photographs already circulating in commercial culture and photographs them again. The catalogue has not yet adopted the shorthand through which several of these practices would later be understood.

The short artist biography printed alongside his work records solo exhibitions with Ellen Sragow, New York, and Galerie Jöllenbeck, Cologne — exhibitions that do not appear in Prince's current selected chronology, which opens with Artists Space and CEPA Gallery in 1980. The Sragow exhibitions are documented elsewhere: \u003cem\u003eWorkout\u003c\/em\u003e (March 1976), \u003cem\u003eIn Complete Control\u003c\/em\u003e (September–October 1976) and \u003cem\u003eThe Author\u003c\/em\u003e (November–December 1977). An early Metro Pictures biography similarly lists Sragow, Artists Space, CEPA and Jöllenbeck together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLater institutional accounts are not consistent on this point. MoMA's 1992 publication \u003cem\u003eAllegories of Modernism: Contemporary Drawing\u003c\/em\u003e describes Prince's advertising photographs as “first shown at the Galerie Jollenbeck, Cologne, in 1978,” while characterising his 1980 exhibitions at Artists Space and CEPA as his “first one-man exhibitions.” In 1980, \u003cem\u003eAltered Subjects\u003c\/em\u003e records Sragow, Jöllenbeck and Artists Space as part of the same continuous solo exhibition history. By 1992, that history was already being described differently. The catalogue preserves a contemporaneous version of the record before those distinctions had settled.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDouglas Crimp's \u003cem\u003ePictures\u003c\/em\u003e exhibition had taken place at Artists Space in 1977; Prince was not included, though questions around photographic reproduction and appropriation were already in circulation. Here he appears simply as one photographer among eight, before the category with which his work would become associated had fully formed.

Original cover price $15.00.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA particularly strong issue of \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e in which the magazine effectively gives its own identity away.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFounded by Glenn O’Brien and Max Blagg, \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e occupied the unstable territory between art magazine, literary publication, fashion object and downtown New York publishing. For this issue, that instability became the cover itself. The usual \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e masthead disappears. JACK SPADE takes its place, while \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e survives only on the spine and in the coverline: “Bald Ego sells out!”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe substitution was deliberate, and D.A.P.’s own catalogue copy for the issue confirms the terms of it directly: “Jack Spade transformed the cover into a readymade.” O’Brien later described the mechanics himself — Andy Spade, founder of Jack Spade and husband of Kate Spade, had developed a running practice of placing the Jack Spade name onto businesses he did not own, including a favourite barbershop and a Houston Street bar, describing the activity as a “commercial readymade” and consciously invoking Duchamp. \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e became another site for the gesture: according to O’Brien, they simply put “Jack Spade” where their own logo normally appeared.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe joke is better than a conventional collaboration because it operates directly through authorship and ownership. Jack Spade does not merely advertise in the magazine. For the duration of the cover, the brand becomes the magazine. The publication retains its material identity while its public name is reassigned. The cover makes that exchange physical: a tuft of real fur sits beneath acetate while the Jack Spade name occupies the authoritative masthead position. Brand, magazine, advertisement and artwork begin to collapse into one another.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe roster inside makes the gesture land harder.

Derain, Braque, Léger, Duchamp-Villon, Picabia and de Chirico appear alongside references to \u003cem\u003eMad\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003ePlayboy\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eInterview\u003c\/em\u003e: art history and mass-media information flattened into the same circulating language. Elizabeth Peyton’s “Heroes” contributes her loose, luminous watercolour portraits of young male subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA magazine already engaged with image culture, celebrity and appropriation temporarily allows a commercial brand to appropriate the magazine itself — and does so while publishing Richard Prince, whose practice has repeatedly tested precisely these boundaries of attribution, reproduction and ownership.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere is an unresolved piece of New York history on the back cover: an advertisement for La Esquina, Comida Tradicional de la Capital, 106 Kenmare Street. The better-known La Esquina is associated with 114 Kenmare Street and a 2005–06 opening, so the relationship between the advertisement here and the later restaurant remains uncertain. It is worth retaining as evidence rather than forcing a conclusion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe object stages a transfer of identity. A commercial brand takes the position normally occupied by an editorial title. \u003cem\u003eBald Ego\u003c\/em\u003e remains materially present — on the spine, inside the magazine, in its editorial structure — but externally it has been renamed. The gesture recalls the readymade without reproducing it literally. Nothing new has to be fabricated. Meaning changes because the existing object is reassigned, relabelled and recirculated. And because Prince appears inside, the structure doubles back on itself: a magazine carrying an artist associated with appropriation has itself been appropriated by a brand whose founder explicitly described his practice through Duchamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMagazine becomes support. Brand becomes author. Advertising becomes cover. Commerce becomes material. O’Brien’s own punchline remains the most economical description of the whole arrangement: “Bald Ego sells out!” Except the sell-out is not outside the work.
