Lot Essay

“I’ve never wanted to be transgressive or to make an image that was unacceptable or that I would have to censor. But that being said, I do think a lot of the imagery I do create is sexual, and I hope it does turn people on” (R. Prince, quoted in R. Kennedy, “Two Artists United By Devotion to Women,” New York Times, 23 December 2008, sec. C p.1).
