Description
Starting bid: $500
Film-maker and writer Greg Allen offers you the opportunity of a lifetime: the Cariou v. Prince court case, right in the comfort of your own home! In 2011, Allen published Canal Zone Richard Prince YES RASTA: Selected Court Documents from Cariou v. Prince et al. For your benefit item, Allen and his small troupe of artists will perform a live re-enactment of Prince’s testimony from this landmark legal battle over appropriation and fair use. The performance will illuminate crucial elements of Prince’s practice, from his contested history with Gagosian to his thoughts on post-apocalyptic lesbians. The 90-120 minute performance must take place within a reasonable radius of the NY metropolitan area, on a date mutually agreed upon, before Labor Day 2012. The successful bidder will receive a unique, hand- painted, commemorative script and up to ten stamped copies of Canal Zone Richard Prince YES RASTA for guests. The winner may also choose to participate in the performance, either as a court officer or an attorney.
