Sayre Gomez Debuts at The Hole
This might seem like a relatively basic question but if I were to say that the experience of looking at Richard Prince’s rephotographed Marlboro ads made me weep, then what would be the difference when encountering the original as a magazine spread — would there be some kind of meaning inherent in that experience if […]
