Notes: "The 375 pages of Richard Prince's deposition released as part of the litigation of Patrick Cariou's copyright infringement case constitute the longest, most exhaustive interview Prince has ever given. In it, he discusses not only his work, his inspiration, and his practice, but also his history and biography, topics about which he had carefully cultivated an air of ambiguity. Couple this testimony with his affidavit; reproductions of his entire series of Canal Zone paintings; and his lawyer's detailed argument defending their copyright status, with Patrick Cariou's own exhaustive, illustrated assertions of unlawful theft; and you basically have the entire, firsthand story of the art world's most controversial copyright battle"--Greg.org.
