Urban Art Association

Cool! Good idea!

Perhaps you could put a red dot on them too!

Who are the Top Collectors?.

Oh of course yes!, cheers Rem, so the ones on the ground floor would be Bottom collectors? or is that summat else entirely?

It's something I've been intending to do for some time (if not for the fact have moved 10 times in 10 years, due to nature of my job). I was thinking simple, White with title, year, artist and maybe a couple of lines of info. In any case I think it looks nice, and I think guests round your gaff would enjoy it, especially those who are not necessarily clued up on your preferred pieces or artist.

+1

Me too, unless you actually want your home to resemble a gallery it sounds ridiculous.

Well in my opinion I would, maybe after doing it I might think differently or then again maybe not. As I mentioned it's subjective, I'm sure some out there (obviously not on this forum) would argue or think why would anyone want urban street art on their wall in their home. Some like to adorn their homes in ornaments, or clutter some like contemporary styles, which look like empty galleries. At the end of the day your home is your home and as long as you are comfy in it who cares. Anywho I'm going on a bit, and probably trying to defend myself too much lol. No one has to agree with me but it is my opinion

I agree... surely you want to talk to guests about the art on your walls, not point them to a piece of foam board blu tacked to the wall...?

Sounds a bit anti-social to me.

Ok Remi, I understand what you're trying to say but you are making rather large assumptions i.e. that the plaque is there to kill conversation. My main argument is that aesthetically it looks nice in my opinion. Go on try it, you might like it......

No matey, but each to their own so fair enough. Its a bit like putting all your good clothes on rails with the shop tickets still on them or auction sale winnings with the lot number stickers still on them to me?.

haha, I didn't quite mean it like that... At the end of the day It's up to the individual... I'd do whatever I want in my house and I guess everyone can do the same.
Personally not for me tho. Plus I have quite a lot of small pieces which I don't think would look so cool with plaques under them...
imho anyway.

Aesthetically, another piece of art would look better in the plaques place IMO.

Although saying that, I have converted my garage to look like quick fit and recreated Asda in my kitchen to store all my food.... along with a check out and gormless fat man on the till

It could all go a bit wrong though like when you go to tacky / no taste friends homes who have a poolswinner vibe and they continuously tell you how much everything cost them and where they bought it from, a bit Harry Enfield "Considerably richer than you" ish. If i wanted the minimalist gallery look i reckon i would go without the plaques meself.
