It's worse than that.  All Prince does is photograph another 
photographer's work and call it appropriation art .  I truly can't 
understand how he can get away with it or why anybody would buy his 
"work".  Jim Krantz who took the original photos for Marlboro sold 
the copyright for the ad and says he doesn't intend to sue and is not 
vindictive.  He just want recognition that the photos are his 
creative work.  His photos never sold for as much as Prince's copies of 
them!!
