This groundbreaking exhibition catalog examines the relationship between Beat artist Wallace Berman (1926-1976) and Richard Prince, focusing on their shared interest in appropriating imagery from men's magazines. Kristine McKenna's essay provides critical context for understanding how Berman's pioneering collage work in the 1950s-60s presaged Prince's 1990s-2000s Girlfriends paintings. The publication reveals previously unseen Berman works and includes Prince's Car installation, demonstrating the lineage between Beat-era assemblage and Pictures Generation appropriation.
