To bind to data when the DataContext is not inherited

BindingProxy.cs

public class BindingProxy : Freezable
{
    #region Overrides of Freezable
 
    protected override Freezable CreateInstanceCore()
    {
        return new BindingProxy();
    }
 
    #endregion
 
    public object Data
    {
        get { return (object)GetValue(DataProperty); }
        set { SetValue(DataProperty, value); }
    }
 
    // Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for Data.  This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
    public static readonly DependencyProperty DataProperty =
        DependencyProperty.Register("Data", typeof(object), typeof(BindingProxy), new UIPropertyMetadata(null));
}

ExampleView.xaml

<DataGrid.Resources>
    <local:BindingProxy x:Key="proxy" Data="{Binding}" />
</DataGrid.Resources>

<DataGridTextColumn Header="Price" Binding="{Binding Price}" IsReadOnly="False"
                    Visibility="{Binding Data.ShowPrice,
                        Converter={StaticResource visibilityConverter},
                        Source={StaticResource proxy}}"/>
