Second House

description

Artist's book by Richard Prince published in conjunction with show held at Gladstone Gallery, New York, April 30 - June 18, 2005. Composed of photographs by Prince. "Prince's upstate New York Second House makes a home, literally, for the increasingly physical work of an artist once best known for his studio photographs of magazines. The Second House documents his ranch-style gallery, the long grass around it, and the 1973 Plymouth Barracuda parked in the yard, and commemorates the Guggenheim's purchase of the site, which they pledge to open to the public for ten years." -- publisher's statement. [Second House was acquired by the Guggenheim Museum in 2005 and destroyed by fire in 2007 after it was struck by lighting.]
