But really I loved the original street piece with the city behind it, and figured the gold was the closest they'd get to that image so I grabbed one. Seeing these, I think they're gorgeous.

I do quite like this 'I used to be worth something' in red. Back in the day my house was filled with all the old Faile classics but not much of theirs now will make my walls.

New Faile @ Paper Monster, by Happy Shopper on Feb 4, 2014 13:24:29 GMT 1, This is definately a "challenging" image... it's not pretty! But I admire them for doing this print. It has a strong message. Probably one of their strongest. It's a little depressing to look at though At least it's not another rehash of one of their classics!!
There seems to be a backlog for their releases (This being from 2012). I'm still waiting for their large format Faile Fantastique (The VNA cover), that they teased months ago... That looks like it'll be awesome.

I think their latest prints has been done to keep their fans happy, it has been motives from the ballet and old images for the 150 series. And you can argue if they are good or bad, I'm not sure myself on these (I used to be worth something is awesome). What I think they have used a lot of time on is their originals. If you have a look at their website and look at their selection of this years originals, the museum exhibition at Dallas Contemporary or the DELUXX FLUXX ARCADE. All of these I think are excellent works and really show their progression. I know that they are going back to canvases this year and from what I've seen it's going to be a great Faile year

they absolutely killed it last year, and this is a nice release to start the new year.

Loving the development of the use of the back of the prints as well, very innovative.

You're literally paying for the sig and limited edition of 100 factor. Signature can sometimes make a big difference - look at the difference in price between a signed and unsigned banksy girl with balloon. Admittedly an extreme example.

For me they are one of the street artists with the most constant high-level output. Plus great projects (Mongolia, Ballet etc.), nicest guys to deal with, always keeping their fans in mind (150er series) etc. etc. etc.

Pretty flippant to suggest otherwise. They are constantly evolving with something for newer fans and something for the older fans who have followed their career from day one.

I agree, last year was a killer year for Faile. I didn't like every single image but the projects were pretty amazing, things for different sized pockets too. This new studio edition is my fave for a good while, won't be going for it but looking forward to seeing some framed pics on here.

New Faile @ Paper Monster, by Someones Brain on Feb 4, 2014 17:27:54 GMT 1, You guys are crazy to say $225 for a gig print is "fair" Why is that? Please explain. Did you ever do some more research in the field of "gig posters"? Even though I focus on urban/street art these days I started my collection with gig posters about 15 years ago and there are a lot of prints that sell for much more. I do not want to justify the price tag on the Faile concert print, in particular because the Pearl Jam fan club will most probably sell the exact same poster - unsigned and unnumbered - at some time in the future for about US$30 and it's a "new" print too. But still there are even lots of newer gig posters that sell (flip) for big money. So why isn't $225 fair? Because they take the flippers out of the game?

New Faile @ Paper Monster, by soam24 on Feb 4, 2014 17:37:01 GMT 1, ^
No because it's a gig poster, direct from the artist.
Most bands gig posters are signed and numbered at the show for no more than $50. Most artists released their allotment of gig posters for $100.
So based on that analysis, I feel like $225 is not fair. But it's their poster to do what they want with.
This has nothing to do with flippers, because with the large pearl jam run. These aren't sought after on the aftermarket IMO.
