Artist book by Richard Prince, published by Scalo.
“Adult Comedy Action Drama” is one of Prince’s key works from the 1990s, reflecting his ongoing exploration of American visual culture, media imagery, and appropriation.
The book brings together a sequence of images and texts that reference popular genres — as suggested by the title itself — blurring the boundaries between mass media, advertising, and contemporary art. Rather than a conventional narrative, it functions as a conceptual montage, characteristic of Prince’s practice.
Widely regarded as an important publication within his body of work, and a representative example of artist books from the period.
