Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Lroy on Apr 15, 2024 9:23:23 GMT 1, Damn you Lroy - I thought I was going to be good this week and not buy anything but I couldn’t resist. That lasted a few hours. 🤣🤣 Wow ! I’m sorry mate, if you want, there are other nice combos too ! ( anyway I asked the order from a US great friend : less rates and shipping I guess. You will be happy I’m sure ! The lettering on this one is amazing ! As a rap flow !

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by HRE on Apr 15, 2024 10:32:29 GMT 1, I don't think it is much. A limited edition artwork by Ruscha and screen printed element. It is a great acquisition for those who purchased it, and it was available at a relatively low price point. When compared to Keith Haring posters, which are produced in large quantities and sell at auction houses for substantial sums

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Winter on Apr 15, 2024 11:55:55 GMT 1, Looking back on this AA should have produced a proper signed, full-bleed version (without stamp) of 100 that was sold through a lottery. That would have generated lots more money. They could have then sold a poster version with Ruscha stamp online and in LACMA store that would continue to raise money going forward. Not sure who the decision makers were on this project but I'm not convinced they got this one 100% right.

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Gunny on Apr 15, 2024 12:15:30 GMT 1, The thing i don't like is all the odd edition numbers in timed editions. Why not round it up to an edition of 2000 - sounds a lot better. they could keep the odd ones back to sell later or to long standing customers who missed the timed and fancied it later on.

And that's the issue with transparency on these timed releases. Not a fan of them, and don't think I will ever buy any.

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Fuzzyduck121 on Apr 15, 2024 12:25:18 GMT 1, on the basis that an edition of 40 (albeit small) sell for 5k and are still available at source these are immediately worth less than you paid for them
You can get a nice bigger edition of less than 100 for 6/7/k easily and maybe 5k if you haggle
I hope you guys bought because you like the work and not for any sort of financial benefit which will never ever come to pass
scarf edition of 500 hammered at £700 onlineonly.christies.com/s/contemporary-edition-london/ed-ruscha-b-1937-124/214950
print edition of 40 didn't get to a low reserve of 3-5K US www.christies.com/en/lot/lot-6469900
Diecut and embossed finished poster signed edition of 100 hammered for £700 www.phillips.com/detail/ed-ruscha/UK030124/252

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Lroy on Apr 15, 2024 13:16:01 GMT 1, Nope. Feet numbered. yes I know I’m a fool. Sorry. :-) But I don’t think that Ed numbered them, people of AA yes. i read a comment comparing Rusha print or posters, we can’t compare that ! Since decades mostly all the world knows Haring, Warhol, and even Baskiat. im sorry but I never heard about Rusha before ( that’s my son that told me that it was one of the richest artist actually ).
But, I like him anyway, even if some art collectors or lambda guys are fed up of Pop art.

In fact it was 580 Euros taxes included for everybody ( even for European that had not to pay taxes for packages coming from NL ). Shipping was free, so, for everybody on this planet. if there was not this + 100 £ , I would bought one. maybe

But since we live in hype based, advertisement driven consumer societies, it's also not surprising. These prints are the BILLY bookcases of art history.

I reckon that Avant Arte makes great job ( quality, logistic, shipping, gloves etc.. but maybe that it's more about services and packaging than the artwork itself.
This Spam was a great idea ( they even post on Insta the history of this Spam ) , but we think ( as for OTI, Heni, etc ) that we buy the brand ( and the name of the artist ) , rather than the artwork itself. I don't know really. Signed and no Lacma brand would has been better. Who paid all this ? Is Lacma a sponsor ?

I don’t know why respectful artists choose to work with such. These days everyone and everything seems to be about money. There is no passion anymore.

I suspect it's because it's linked to an exhibition in the states. People probably attend the museum and decide to buy the print because of the exhibition. $500 isn't much these days, particularly when you are talking about top-rate artists.
