KAWS has left Perrotin, the gallery that has represented him, by Wrinkled Brain on Jul 9, 2019 21:27:21 GMT 1, Looks like a strategic career move. Skarstedt can place his work with museums and the 1% collections. Kaws going for legacy and to solidify his position in today's art canon. Also puts his already inaccessible works out of reach even further, while still earning megabucks. Exactly, well put.

Kaws - Presenting the past, by Wrinkled Brain on Apr 23, 2019 16:41:58 GMT 1, Hey everybody, I want to sell my Kaws - Presenting the past print. I can ship it framed or unframed whatever you prefer. At the moment it is at the framer to inspect the piece as it was framed by a different framer. The framer said there are no condition issues and no clue nothing. She described it as "virgin new". Regarding shipping she said we could use the frame and change the glas with plexiglas as the print is very sensitive as many of you know. But I am also happy to ship it unframed. Open to suggestions here. As it is at the framer right now I only can provide pictures with the frame. But I will stop by the framer tomorrow or the day after tomorrow and can provide you with additional pictures without the frame. Shipping can be arranged worldwide but would prefer Europe. Also open to suggestions here. I am asking for $23.000. Located in Germany. www.bilder-upload.eu/bild-0768c6-1556031281.jpg.htmlHappy to hear from you. Best, Tim Out of curiosity, when framing all the way to the edge like that, does it increase the chances of creasing the sides? I'm genuinely curious from someone who has experience framing to the edge like this. I've always float mounted so I am genuinely curious as well.

Jeff Koons ๐บ๐ธ Balloon Dog โข Sculpture โข Art For Sale, by Wrinkled Brain on Apr 12, 2019 19:02:02 GMT 1, Wasn't Ankle Bracelet released 2017? 2016: PIRANHAS WHEN YOU'RE SLEEPING BY KAWS and ISOLATION TOWER BY KAWS? Not really sure, we'll have to give it a look. Since '13 I've noted a pattern of Q4 KAWS print releases. I try to save throughout the year in hopes that I can afford his end of the year release (that's if they make them available to regular guys like me on release date which hasn't been the case for years with the Miami Basel Invite only day releases.)

Jeff Koons ๐บ๐ธ Balloon Dog โข Sculpture โข Art For Sale, by Wrinkled Brain on Apr 12, 2019 18:03:03 GMT 1, WOW! Another Color Variant Release before the first edition is even sold out. Before they began releasing all these different colors the Balloon Dog Market was very strong, based where they release at, these will become tougher sales down the road.... which is a shame considering we still own 4 sets.... Can't help to wonder if the same will happen to the Kaws market over the next few years. Yep. Kaws went from having around 4 or 5 print editions to an absolute ton (especially if you include the portfolios of 10) within about 2 years. Still seem to sell well though... which surprises me!! But these Koons sculptures are silly money for a HUGE edition! Since 2013 KAWS has released only 1 print (or print set) per year. Please elaborate.

Made complete sense to me. And your reply was rude.

Kaws market "reeling"?, by Wrinkled Brain on Apr 2, 2019 19:30:03 GMT 1, Even the title of this thread is misleading. Artist of the year at auction and the headline reads as if his market is declining. It's quite obvious the intentions people have on here. We see it clear as day.

Kaws market "reeling"?, by Wrinkled Brain on Apr 2, 2019 19:12:38 GMT 1, KAWS is the chosen one. Invest now because these prices will not drop. Been saying the same thing for well over a decade now.
Y'all forget about the underbidders who arm wrestled with the winner. Like I said, there's enough money to keep this going. KAWS is a chosen one. Everyone stop talking like you knows**t, when really none of you don't.

Kaws market "reeling"?, by Wrinkled Brain on Mar 27, 2019 20:19:35 GMT 1, Thank you for this. Good to finally see facts in this thread... Kind of like the old days when most collectors knew what they were talking about.
KAWS (it is KAWS, not Kaws - it was his graffiti tag) grew up in New Jersey and started tagging as a teenager. He went to NYCโs School of Visual Arts...SVA is well known. In the early 90s he began his practice of โsubversionโ by taking the ads out of bus stops phone booths etc (he got the odd key the MTA uses) painting weird things on the ads then putting them back. Note this was a great time for NYC graffiti, following the strong 80s. After graduating with a BA in Fine Art he did work for Disney as a freelance animator - painting backgrounds. Not really โworking for Disneyโ. He was given the opportunity to create toys, called in some shops โadult vinylโ at the time, for the Japanese market - which was and remains crazy for this type of thing. This had nothing to do with Disney. Giant Robot, and then Kid Robot, became popular in the US, creating a market for his toys in the US. I lived in Brooklyn and would buy directly from his studio, and there was a Stussy store in Soho that had been an early supporter (because he is the real deal) that few knew of and where his stuff could be bought at same price after selling out on his site. Itโs fine if people want to complain about his prices now, that just means you missed out by not being there early. For you he now makes open editions so you can have something. Donโt complain.

You scored a nice pair of prints. Framed these will look even better. Post pics once they're framed!

Pejac - Love Letter, by Wrinkled Brain on Feb 12, 2019 18:24:41 GMT 1, Can't believe you hype that overproduced "slowmotion with sweet electric beats and white gloves video" art that much. I watched it so many times it put me in a euphoric trance.

Pejac - Love Letter, by Wrinkled Brain on Feb 11, 2019 22:49:12 GMT 1, Picked my up from FedEx this am. Bubble Wrap Fail. See pics attached. I promptly emailed Max about it and figured I would share his quick and curt response for those members with similar issues. Thanks for the email. Iโm glad to hear your Love Letter has safely arrived. Iโm sorry that you are disappointed on the box damage but you need to understand that, in certain degree, this is expected to happen during artwork transit. The very box is meant to protect the artwork inside, itโs not part of the artwork. The bubblewrap layer was a very last moment addition because we (as you) found the whole packing to be very good looking and we wanted to give it something to do at least some packing protection. We hope you can understand that we can not replace your wooden box because of this. Wishing you all the best and thanks again for your kind support, Max Take the damaged side of the box off and replace it, looks straight forward enough to do. I take it the birds are on the inside of the lid so it won't matter if you replace the side Honestly, it would be impossible unless you own the same exact stamps and ink used to stamp the side of the box. And is this the side that Pejac (or company) hand numbered? Seems the box could be viewed as part of the artwork as it is numbered as well and beautiful.

Pejac - Love Letter, by Wrinkled Brain on Feb 11, 2019 22:43:05 GMT 1, Given that the stencil was placed on the cladding, I would be inclined to write off any damage as being a part of the box's terroir. Hard to fault them for any damage to that. I had thought the stencilled birds were painted on the inside of the lid. Iโm not sure where I got that misapprehension from. Thank you for the correction. Providing the cladding with the painted birds and the letter are undamaged, my opinion remains the same. You were not misinformed, the stenciled birds were painted on the inside of the lid as I mentioned in a previous post.

Pejac - Love Letter, by Wrinkled Brain on Feb 9, 2019 3:19:06 GMT 1, Mine was fine but the condition of the outer box doesnโt really matter does it? As long as whatโs inside is good.
The box itself is โwhatโs insideโ along with its contents. The reverse side of the lid is a stencil sprayed by Pejac. They used a single layer of thin bubble wrap that couldโve been punctured rather easily. I would have been livid if mine arrived damaged.

Got mine today (UK) the same way, I think they were all the same (bubble wrap taped up). Thankfully mine was perfect. I'm very happy with it.
Thankful mine wasnโt damaged as well. I assumed they would ship in an outer box due to the fact that the box is part of the artwork. Hopefully no one has issues.

Kaws โข Clean Slate, by Wrinkled Brain on Dec 21, 2018 21:32:13 GMT 1, Opened my brown companion last night and couldn't be happier with the quality of the piece and packaging. Super heavy, too. Wish I would've doubled up on each color but having the set is good enough for now. My daughter loves it too, I told her KAWS had babies.. she thought that was so funny. Gosh I love art.
