The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by maxf on Feb 20, 2015 14:01:36 GMT 1, I have absolutely no problem in someone saving me queuing in subzero temperatures (not to mention the travel cost) but I wouldn't expect anybody to pay you the cost/fee, to be at the whim of a public vote when the outcome could mean they get refunded and screwed over on exchange rates. That is topping the toomuchdickingaround-ometer
You'd have been better off staying quiet, not arguing with the dissenters (who really can't expect him to line up for ages in the freezing cold for only a few $s given the secondary value of many of these prints) and definitely not starting a poll after you've agreed a fee and asked for payment.

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by eschiff on Feb 20, 2015 14:08:00 GMT 1, Alright, since the typicals apparently decided to come in and s**t all over the place then let's play a game. Cast your vote by making a post in this thread. Voting ends at 7:59PM EST, Friday February 20th.The "Who's a Piece of s**t" Game [Also known as "Shove Your Pitchfork Up Your Ass"]Post with an "X" = I don't attend the JLG print release, and three UAA members are refunded for the Pose (cost+60), Geddes (cost+60), and Daleast (cost+300) print. [Dal went to a member for $800; costs ~$500 after tax] Post with an "O" = I do attend the JLG print release, and three UAA members receive their respective prints at the above prices (plus whoever else decides they're interested in the remaining prints for cost + $60). If the X's beat the O's, then I'm a piece of s**t. If not, then 11 and sparky are pieces of s**t (particularly 11, cause where the hell'd he even come from this time). Sparky, 11, and myself cannot vote. If they choose to vote, the vote does not count.
You get to decide my fate, the fate of sparky, 11 and three anonymous UAA members! Like 'Lord of the Flies' without the everything!
CURRENT VOTES X = 1 O = 0
I mean...that's just...i have no words. The most ridiculous post i've seen on here since i joined and there have been some whoppers. You want random people to vote on whether or not you win against some other random people? Forget waiting for prints, have a sit down with yourself and think about your priorities.

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by Someones Brain on Feb 20, 2015 14:41:04 GMT 1, I don't know too many people willing to stand in line that long in the frigid weather to secure prints for forum members. Well, there are 9 prints. At the end of this "discussion" - when this thread turned from a favour for forum members on the occasion of a gallery/show visit into an advertisement for a purchase agency service - he wanted a profit of $450 on one of the prints and of $60 on the remaining others. He's not working with (=investing) his own money as he asked for prepayment. Even if you assume he'll not pick up all of the others (because he doesn't get "preorders" for all prints) that's some good money for 2-3 hours of working/waiting. I've seen people doing crazy things for a lot less. Again, I'm not judging what he does. I'm aware that he'd get probably a lot more money when he flips these prints straight on. I know that he'd probably be crazy if he stood in the cold for 3 hours just to do forum members a favour. But you should also bear in mind we are not talking about a charitable act (as some comments imply).

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by dazarino on Feb 20, 2015 16:54:28 GMT 1, This thread has got out of hand. I'm sorry but I personally think if a collector who can't make this show wants this print then ยฃ160 (average days wage for most) is fair to ask a person to waste a day queuing in the freezing cold to collect it for them. It's not as though a gun is being held to anyone's head.
I would even insist on paying that to a family member for the trouble if they offered to get me one.
Anyway back to the art, I keep changing my mind, the pose looks better and better every time I see it. I have just bought a pose study from jlg, so excited. I think this show will be amazing. Does anyone know if there will be a geddes original there?

So there's only 15 HF prints? Maybe I will like it more in person. Sometimes prints do that to you.

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by Deleted on Feb 20, 2015 19:13:22 GMT 1, okay. art talk time
I've never heard of Gary Taxali, but I'm really enjoying this piece. He's definitely going on my radar
Love the Brett Armory too. One of the best representations of Coney Island I've seen.
The Parra reminds me of something, but I can't figure out what.
That's probably my favorite Dal East print so far, though I'd love for him to throw us a curveball and do something different
Not a fan of the Pose. I just don't get his work, I think. It's very well done, but doesn't give me any emotion/feelings, good or bad. It just exists in front of me. I'd rather hate it than just be okay with it
not really a fan of the others either. just not my taste
edit: I've looked up some of Taxali's prints. I really love this one, but I'm bummed it's a glicee. nothing against glicees, but seems his work is perfectly suited for hand made prints

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by WOOF on Feb 20, 2015 19:14:04 GMT 1, I guess I'm in the minority, but I like the new pose, and I bet the HF will look pretty stellar. The extra bits really punched up his Blot release. Hoping to score one to hang em side by side. So there's only 15 HF prints? Maybe I will like it more in person. Sometimes prints do that to you. Yup. Only downside is they might already be flat packed (or tubed but I'm hoping not) so you won't know how good the finishing is on any individual print.

The Color and the Fury 10 Years of Jonathan LeVine Prints!, by thriftypix on Feb 20, 2015 19:16:01 GMT 1, I keep going back and forth on Pose's 'Doll 3.' While I generally do like Pose's work, this latest print does have more ''cartoon" content (e.g. Daffy), whereas 'Blot' owed more to comic book imagery. Anyone who was ever into or knows about early Marvel comic books will know what I mean. "Cartoon" vs. "Comic book" might seem like a distinction without a difference to some, but to me it's huge iconographically. And the lack of textual elements in 'Doll 3' is a bummer. I guess what I'm saying is that I shouldn't have missed out on 'Blot.' Woe is me.
As to the Amory: LOVE his work and love this image. But can't get past that it's a giclรฉe. Just won't buy fancy-schmancy posters of pre-existing work - limited edition or not. As to the hand-embellished version: I've seen Brett's HPM work on some of his previous prints and it can be really nice. It can also look a real mess. Would have to check out the print first before buying.

The hand finished is limited to only 10. I've come around on this piece as well. Vibrant colors, pop-cartoon aesthetic, trademark pastiche, mix of geometries, and measured composition (the image is actually divided in half, anchored by a stable triangle shape on the bottom). Certainly lots of interesting visual elements going on.
