This biography from the Archives of AskART:
|  An artist who describes himself as making paintings in batches, Eric
Doeringer says that his creative process is "like an assembly
line." He openly copies works by famous artists such as Richard
Prince and Lisa Yuskavage. Beginning in the early 2000s, he has
sold his work from a table set up on Saturdays in the Chelsea district
of Manhattan, often within proximity of galleries representing the
artists he plagiarizes. Sometimes he is cited for vending without
a license and suspects police are called by angry gallery owners.
One of these gallery owners describes Doeringer as a bootlegger and
opportunist, seeking his 15 minutes of fame. Doeringer says
that he began as a conceptualist, but his copying talents are now
paying his bills.
