Richard Prince’s Last Stand
The artist has shocked the cultural establishment again and again with norm-breaking—some say law-breaking—conceptual artworks. In an ultra-rare late-career interview, he discusses his surprising new ...

Richard Prince's Wily 7-Hour 'Deposition' Video Is an Instant Classic | Artnet News
Richard Prince recently showed his nearly 7-hour-long deposition in a copyright case as a video artwork. It's a doozy.

Last Saturday I presented my paper "Several Stories Happening at Once: Intertext in ‘Love and Theft’" at The World of Bob Dylan 2025 conference. Such a receptive crowd! Brian Roberts and Eric Lott were also on the panel. An expanded version of my slides is on my IG: www.instagram.com/p/DMkYHLVOkQ...

22 years ago today, „Masked & Anonymous“ was released. Directed by Larry Charles and co-written with Bob Dylan, it’s a wonderful movie featuring an outstanding cast, intriguing dialogues and powerful musical performances — an artistic work that has stood the test of time.

Denise Sullivan writes, “It's understandable if you missed the 80 year commemoration of the Trinity test, given the week that was.” I didn’t miss it, because I live in New Mexico. The haunting National Museum of Nuclear Science & History is just down the road, catty-corner from my local Costco.

It’s All One Long Funeral Song
At last week's Nobel Laureate Assembly for the Prevention of Nuclear War in Chicago, Kronos performed "Hard Rain" with Allison Russell. “You know, it’s remarkable that a 21-year-old singer-songwriter ...

Hey @michaelgray1.bsky.social, I saw that you posted, “I'm told that in ‘Shane’ the song Dixie is part of the sound track, with a scene where the camera pans slowly left to right across a small group of people; in M&A Dylan sings Dixie with a small audience & the camera pans across them likewise.”

Thinking of Chantal Akerman (June 6, 1950 – October 5, 2015). Bob Dylan has a couple of paintings based on shots from her 1977 film News from Home.

Thanks to Steve Badolato for letting me know that he figured out that this Bob Dylan painting is based on a shot from Sweet Smell of Success. This brings the tally of films that have been identified as source material used in Bob Dylan’s paintings and drawings to 70. That’s a lot of movies!

There’s a Richard Prince/Bob Dylan centerfold in the Summer 2025 issue of Gagosian Quarterly. The accompanying text is an OK starting point for considering this stuff. (Bluesky insists on a censored version of the issue’s Picasso cover). gagosian.com/quarterly/is...

“Books that mention Bob Dylan” is a subset of source material used in Chronicles: Volume One that intrigues me (there are a bunch of them). He turns up as “Dylan, our messiah” and “Dylan our Elvis” in American Rhapsody (a book quoted not only in the passage about Ricky Nelson, but throughout).

I see that Bob Dylan closed his show last night with “Garden Party.” Ricky Nelson’s “Be-Bop Baby” was one of the first records I ever owned. When Dylan writes about Nelson in Chronicles: Volume One he incorporates bits from Jack London’s “The Seed of McCoy” and Joe Eszterhas’ American Rhapsody.

This Bob Dylan painting is based on a shot from the 1956 film A Kiss Before Dying. That’s Robert Wagner. Another painting based on this film had previously been identified.

Another Easter egg: Dylan does a callback to that New Lost City Ramblers/Larry Brown pairing through the use of a “pretty nice stuff” bit
from Brown’s Fay: A Novel in Chronicles: Volume One. He uses another bit from the novel in conjunction with the line as a way of showing that it was intentional.

Bob Dylan’s Easter eggs contain Easter eggs. Note how he pairs a line about hiding booze from Larry Brown’s short story “Kubuku Rides (This Is It)” with a line from the New Lost City Ramblers’ “Kentucky Bootlegger” (someone who hides booze). Ain’t like Easter eggs? Exactly like Easter eggs.
