Catalogue Note
"Well, as far as the biker chicks are concerned, I just wouldn't mind being one. I've never said that before, but I think that's what I really feel. There's a certain kind of desire and a certain amount of passion. I like what I think they look like, or perhaps what they are. I think many of these pictures have their own egos and they have an imagination of their own. That's my own particular reaction. I also think the biker chick is perhaps a more realistic representation that the Grace Kelly girl-next-door. I mean, the biker chicks are the girls next door." - Richard Prince
