Bรคst @ Allouche Gallery 10/17, by Street Art Fan on Oct 15, 2019 9:50:05 GMT 1, Bast been been making art since Oli Epp was in primary school. Now Oli Epp paintings more in demand than bast paintings. Don't quit your day job Bast. This is such an odd sentiment, even in jest. Saying that Bast - a legendary artist who's collaborated with Faile, Aiko, and Paul Insect, someone who Banksy greatly admires - should stick to his "day job" because another artist sells more than he does is pretty ridiculous. I'm not saying that you have to like his stuff or even care much about his new direction. But if you're a fan of street art, you would at least show a little more respect.

The Art of BAST, by Street Art Fan on Aug 4, 2018 0:33:22 GMT 1, I always thought that his early paste ups were inspired by the flyers made by underground punk bands in the 70s and 80s to promote their concerts.

No really.... whatโs with all the bast for sale?, by Street Art Fan on May 21, 2018 15:43:10 GMT 1, Maybe it's cyclical? During the early years of the forum, it seems Bast pieces exchanged hands pretty regularly. Then it died down. Now, it seems to be picking up again. It's likely just a coincidence that certain members have decided to sell their pieces all at the same time.
To me, the more revealing question is how a commercial hack like Jerkface nowadays can command $2000 for a giclee variant when far more interesting limited edition Bast screenprints continue to sell for around $500. On the plus side, price stability all but guarantees that his works won't fall into the hands of flippers.

Ted talks Elon, by Street Art Fan on May 9, 2018 5:28:05 GMT 1, Love the Model S, hope to buy one someday. If Tesla remains solvent, that is. Despite his many gifts, I think Elon is best suited in his role as tech visionary, not automobile CEO. From closing factory doors to all Tesla contractors (unless employees personally vouch for the quality of their work), to missing production deadlines, to obsessively responding to the smallest criticisms on Twitter, he seems weighed down by day to day requirements of running a major company. He's great in the big hairy audacious idea department, but not so much in delivering products on time. It's the same reason really why poets should never govern.

Price check: BAST unique Old Spice & Paul Insect canvas , by Street Art Fan on Apr 23, 2018 19:11:14 GMT 1, The prices on these probably havn't gone up greatly, or at all, since you bought them. Depending on the size of that Paul Insect I'd assume a roughly 1/3 (Bast) vs 2/3 (Paul Insect) split of whatever you paid. I realize that Bast works are hard to price, and that the secondary market for non-Key Foods/Disney character works is a little soft. If I remember correctly, it took ling a long while to sell his stained colorway Old Spice. However 1/3 of the seller's cost price seems a little arbitrary imo. With all due respect, what are you basing this on?

Any NFL Fans?, by Street Art Fan on Jan 22, 2018 15:07:04 GMT 1, I was hoping for a Jags vs Vikes Super Bowl. Wanted to see some new blood in the game. Sadly I have to hear all my fair-weather-fan friends chirp about the Eagles for the next two weeks. Giants fan living in Philly = hell. Longtime Philly fan watching the rival Giants win the Superbowl in '87, '91, '08, and '12 while the Eagles have yet to win one = hell.

Any NFL Fans?, by Street Art Fan on Jan 22, 2018 3:27:16 GMT 1, Not too many fans have boo'd Santa Clause though, to be fair. And didn't the old ground have a jail in it? I've never had a problem there (non divisional opponent), but I don't think the reputation is based on nothing... a little exaggerated, perhaps, but an exaggeration rather than a fabrication? I read today that the police grease the street poles in Philly so if the team wins the fans won't climb them. That's true. They're planning for a massive parade right from the stadium in South Philly straight up Broad Street. It'll be quite rowdy, I'm sure.

Any NFL Fans?, by Street Art Fan on Jan 22, 2018 0:27:30 GMT 1, What a game!!!
Predicted beforehand that Jax - young, fast, aggressive, hungry - would win. Heading into the 4th, I thought they still had a chance. But if watching the NFL over the last 17 years has taught me anything, it's that you should NEVER pick against Brady and Belichick.
Rooting for my home team Philly to win tonight, but it's going to be close!

Eine Drop, by Street Art Fan on Dec 15, 2017 18:07:49 GMT 1, To answer bens question, it's because generally people are c#unts. Was actually Rodney King's question... I was in college at the time of the LA riots, and remember when he made this statement on the evening news. To this day, I have never understood why people made fun of him for it. It was a tearful cry from the heart - a simple yet powerful appeal for brotherhood. This print misses the mark, unfortunately.
