Doeringer, Eric
Jenny Saville (from the Bootleg Series)
2006

“Jenny Saville” is a copy of a work by Jenny Saville. Doeringer creates what he calls “bootlegs,” which are copies of work by other well known artists. He sells these works on sidewalks and in parking lots – which puts them in a category more like the ilicit taping of bands by eager fans (and profiteers) rather than counterfeit works trying to pass themselves off as the real things. Doeringer uses a combination of collage and painting as well as other techniques to generate his knock-off artworks.
