^^WHAT?

Bizzare question, Marc is a known figure in New York scene, through his stint at Perry Ellis, and then at his namesake label, so ya i see what he meant, cool quote.

That's a bunch of sh*t. LV is ubiquitous whether you like it or not.

Guest 1, Marc collects Prince's work and the art world is a very small place. Even if Richard Prince is telling the truth (which I doubt) that is how he would have known about Marc without knowing anything about LV. But, the fun of reading anything that Richard Prince has said is attempting to figure out if he's telling the truth or inventing a story. The man likes to make shit up in interviews. I don't blame him.

This quote is way too hard to analyze considering how far taken out of context it is.

However,
an legit photographer claiming they do not know about prominent Houses in the industry are either A)liars or B) morons...this quote is pretty embarassing I'd say.

Furthermore, "Influence"? Who cares...find your own vs. trying to imitate two of the wealthiest and wellconnected twins in history.
