Richard Prince, I’m not Linda, 1992.

I’m Not Linda confronts the viewer with a strangely puzzling juxtaposition of minimalist composition and silkscreened words. Although this can be read as a reference to postmodern linguistic theory, the work also points to two quintessentially American characteristics: hard-edge abstraction and popular humour. Cleverly subverting the clean and serious vernacular of abstract painting, the Jokes' amalgamation of low and high culture characterises Prince’s most important work. Wittingly parodying popular gags heard in everyday parlance, the artist found a way of incorporating a universal human condition – humour – into a deeply serious and resolutely intellectual form of artistic expression.
