Eric Doeringer Biography

Eric Doeringer is one of the most popular and richest Contemporary Artist who was born on July 1, 1974 in Cambridge, England, United Kingdom.

According to Doeringer, the majority of the artists he copies do not mind, while others have sent him cease-and-desist letters. Richard Prince was a “fan” of his work, while Takashi Murakami put a stop to his copies. Doeringer states that his work is fair use because he “culled the pictures from the public domain of the Internet”. In 2005, Chelsea art dealer Mike Weiss called the police to remove Doeringer’s Bootleg stand from 24th Street. Weiss told The New York Times that “he did so for reasons that might be condemned in the art world but that made perfect sense for any businessman like himself who has to pay a huge rent” and claimed Doeringer was “an opportunist and that he just wants his 15 minutes”.

Eric Doeringer’s “Bootlegs” are small copies of work by eminent contemporary artists including Richard Prince and Lisa Yuskavage. Doeringer reproduces the artworks using “collage, digital photography, paint and varnish”. Doeringer can make between six and fifteen paintings each day and told The New York Times in a 2005 interview that his process is “like an assembly line”. On Saturdays beginning in 2001, he set up a vending table in Chelsea, Manhattan on West 24th Street. Small canvases reproducing contemporary paintings lined the table. Paintings by the original artists (sold within a short walking distance from Doeringer’s stand) cost tens of thousands of dollars, while Doeringer’s copies sold for less than $100. His total profit in a day of selling paintings has sometimes reached $1500. Time Out stated that Doeringer is “famous for bootlegging art on the streets of New York”.

Titled All My Clothes (After Charles Ray), Doeringer’s photographs each contain himself standing in front of a white background attired in various clothes. In an interview with the LA Weekly, he said he adapted Ray’s general ideas for the artwork, adding that the key distinction between their works is the “East Coast-West Coast divide”.
