Os Gemeos @99prints, by aldoxzx on Jan 20, 2014 17:59:11 GMT 1, This is not their first print. They released one back in 2005 or 2006. believe that was on canvas or something. Not an editioned print on paper like we're all talking about. So yeah. First print It was a signed edition of 1001. I don't see a difference printed on paper or canvas?

A canvas print is a totally different way of printing, usually by a digital method. I suppose not dissimilar to a Giclee print in many ways. Printed from a digital file. Where as a screenprint or in this case serigraph is a much harder, more skillful and long winded method of printing one colour at a time, so much more sought after.
There are rumours that printed canvas edition was a lot smaller run than the 1001 stated, not sure if all of them ever saw the light of day.

Os Gemeos @99prints, by Klow on Jan 20, 2014 19:36:09 GMT 1, Don't think the banksy thing would have made any difference. They just have never released any signed prints. Very long time considering how long they hve been around and how established they are (and how good their work is) I'm not surprised on the excitement. Thanks for this explanation! May I know how much their canvases usually costs? Regarding to the price-speculations here, clearly over 20k??? 20k for a 19x16. Their larger pieces, which they are well know for, go for 6 figures (see links below for some examples).
Glass House, 2005 acrylic and spray paint on canvas, in artists' painted wood frame 71 3/4 x 56 in. (182.2 x 142.2 cm.). Sold for $149,000
And the list goes on and on....
No hype here. Well established artists with a long history of auction results to boot.

Unread postby trax51 on Mon Jan 20, 2014 2:19 pm
Aloha, I was at the print atelier today and can confirm the 5k price tag. I can also confirm that these lithograph are old school printed on 90yo printing press, using engraved stones... This is super high quality work made by a bunch of very skilled people. Quality is in another league compared to offset litho/screenprints... And the picture is not the one shown earlier on this forum... But it's getting close )
That said, it's going to be nearly impossible to get one IMHO.... :hanging:

For example I am aware of Chuck Close print releases that release cost was $16K and even up to $60K. Not all prints are meant for the masses clearly the Twins separate their fine art customers from their street art fans. Absolutely nothing wrong with that, I actually appreciate their fair market valuation of their work.

Nos Somos Penta!, 2005 Screenprint on canvas. 29.5 x 20.3 cm Signed and stamped on verso edition of 1,001
Assum Preto, 2007 Hard back cover book, 4 colour-embroidered canvas, contains 1 inedit silkscreen print by Os Gemeos 24,5x29 cm Edition 1000
Plus these few show posters (the first one is long sold out):

Os Gemeos @99prints, by rsj on Jan 21, 2014 6:27:56 GMT 1, In my opinion only, it would be quite (morally?) wrong for them to release a print at that level (if the rumour is true). There are many other more overall established top international artists who release prints at a much lower level. Just because they rarely release prints shouldn't automatically escalate their "status" to such high level.
They are possibly my favourite "street" artists. Please don't get me wrong. I respect and value them highly. And I understand it could be demand that drives up prices. I just somehow feel 4-5k level is disproportionately high.

Os Gemeos @99prints, by sixsense on Jan 21, 2014 10:14:04 GMT 1, I've studied Lithography when I was at University. The process comparing to silkscreen is way harder imho. Idem Paris is one of the best production house in the world using this techniquie. They have served Picasso , Matisse and some other big name in the past.
This is the Lithograph I have from idem
According to their weibo. this lithograph has 35 colour and grey itself is 15 something. It took more than 2 months to complete. and yes, this one cost more than 5K now
Im not going to comment if Gemeos worth 5K or not, but l guess you won't be disappointed
