Would You Sell Me Your Vote For Two Dollars?” I Said, “Yes.”

Artist Richard Prince interviewing American Artist Alex Katz for the Journal of Contemporary Art.

Prince: Do you vote?

Katz: When I turned twenty-one, I decided to vote. My mother said to me, “I know the reason you’re voting is to find out how the voting machine works. Would you sell me your vote for two dollars?” I said, “Yes.”
