Death NYC, by dashboll on Nov 23, 2014 9:25:21 GMT 1, Been seeing quite a lot of Death NYC on the bay, couple of bits I like but can't find out much online. Looks like started in NYC but now in Japan rather than NYC. Anyone know anything more? Looks like giclees too?

Death NYC, by dashboll on Nov 23, 2014 17:14:50 GMT 1, Thanks for the replies, I've seen everything in the 2nd post before online, can't work out is this is an artist or a group churning out prints, there's a lot of new ones out each week. Suppose you should just buy what you like would have been nice to know a bit more

(Made in NYC)"
BUT... Get this: drum roll.... "Shipped from Hong Kong!" Caveat emptor.

Death NYC, by dashboll on Nov 23, 2014 20:44:31 GMT 1, Just got receipt from PayPal, the persons name is Ri Chen just seen her profile online on an art related site, so guessing it's her. Be interested in who you think it might be if you want to pm me. Is shipped from Hong Kong as you say. Not really arsed as I like the look of what I've ordered and suppose that's what really counts

If you like the image, buy it... Just beware of "made-up" stories... That is, if you think the art will go up in price... Else, don't worry about it.

Not really arsed as I like the look of what I've ordered and suppose that's what really counts Your search engine must be more powerful than mine I cannot find any "Ri Chen" anywhere. But no, it is not whom I thought it was... He is based in Miami... VERY, very similar styles... But as others have already pointed out, it appears to be the norm (copying) rather than the exception in this urban art world... If you like the image, buy it... Just beware of "made-up" stories... That is, if you think the art will go up in price... Else, don't worry about it. |

Death NYC, by dhokes on Nov 28, 2014 21:02:10 GMT 1, Mine was shipped from France, home delivery. I absolutely love my print. It's a gas mask.
Is the 'DEATH' signature on the bottom left or right of the print? Photos on eBay show it at differing places.

Death NYC, by Schrรถdinger's Chat on Nov 29, 2014 10:57:11 GMT 1, The death NYC stuff that churns through eBay is extremely derivative, lots of taking a popular theme and tweaking slightly.
I assume the main purpose is to provide affordable art for people that like this style but don't have ยฃยฃยฃ in the banks to buy from established artists.
I guess in that sense a service is being provided, but for me they lack originality and mainly leave me a bit empty.
