Opening reception: Tuesday 29 March, 5–8 pm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOversized card, printed in colour on card stock and folded once, with a full image spread across the interior and exhibition details set on a vertical white panel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe front presents a cropped reproduction from Prince's de Kooning series against a warm peach ground, already staging the collision the works depend on: quotation, distortion, repainting, and the unstable return of a canonical image through another artist's hand. Opened out, the card expands into a near full-bleed detail, intensifying the abrasive facture and unstable figuration associated with the series. The reverse is nearly blank, carrying only the work caption in small type: \u003cem\u003eUntitled (de Kooning)\u003c\/em\u003e, 2009, inkjet and acrylic on canvas.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat circulates here is not only an announcement but a compressed statement of method. Prince's de Kooning paintings rework Willem de Kooning's already volatile women into a second-order image economy of reproduction, collage, and repainting. In invitation form, that logic becomes especially clear: the card itself operates through cropping, folding, enlargement, and redistribution. A work about appropriation is encountered through another act of appropriation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor The New Rare, this is where the object settles. Not simply gallery ephemera, but a small printed mechanism through which authorship, citation, and display are restaged. The folded card holds exhibition, argument, and residue in one support.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e light handling wear and minor corner and edge rubbing visible from age and storage; structurally sound and clean overall.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 21 × 25.5 cm folded; 25.5 × 37 cm unfolded.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrice includes shipping and handling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gagosian Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53185586790738,"sku":null,"price":100.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/5636\/1554\/files\/Richard_Prince_2011_0001.jpg?v=1776061946","url":"https:\/\/thenewrare.com\/products\/richard-prince-de-kooning-gagosian-gallery-paris-2011","provider":"The New Rare","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
