Phillips Art Auctions • New York, Hong Kong & London, by sgolby on Sept 29, 2022 14:47:03 GMT 1, If you are talking about the circular canvas, total price with premiums was $107,000. Definitely not the strongest result. However, more often than not, with Kaws, when not an iconic image, or an image containing iconic references i.e. the XX or chumlike figures, the resale value slumps.

Taku OBATA, by sgolby on Dec 21, 2021 20:49:16 GMT 1, I can tell you, I just received Obata-san's B-Girl Down Jacket Blue and it is an outstanding edition. The polystone execution and coloration gives it an insanely unique feel. They do not at all feel like something machine produced. I am floored.

Taku OBATA, by sgolby on Dec 20, 2021 22:19:51 GMT 1, The print itself is expensive, however it is massive and gorgeous and frankly, worth it in my opinion. The blue sculpture is a wonderful add on considering they are super difficult to buy from the source in japan.

Jean-Michel Basquiat 🇺🇸 Brooklyn, New York • Graffiti Art , by sgolby on Dec 19, 2021 12:00:44 GMT 1, That is some collection. Would be cool to see images before it is broken up! I mean if that is what you are selling, I can only imagine what you are holding on to!
Good luck with the sale, although it seems you don’t need any luck!
Happy holidays!!

Banksy Welcome Mat, by sgolby on Dec 19, 2021 11:56:46 GMT 1, These are not and should not be viewed as investment pieces, unless one plans on donating the profits to charity. They are sold in order to provide work & hope to refugees who are UN-welcome. I maintain that these should be bought on the primary market only. Anyone flogging these on the secondary market should be ashamed as they are quite literally stealing from refugees who have, materially, little to nothing.. My hope is these continue to be made as long as there is a refugee crisis, which will unfortunately likely exist for quite some time longer.

Secret Santa , by sgolby on Dec 17, 2021 20:23:36 GMT 1, fairxat back in the day there were many gifts given that today would be pretty major. I remember there even being a giveaway for a flags once. Just saying, at the end of the day it’s only paper, sure that print is worth significantly more than what I paid for it at the show, but it now brings someone else happiness, and that is worth much more than the difference. This forum has been good to me over they years. Pay it forward, ya know.

Banksy - Street Art - Catalogue Raisonné, by sgolby on Dec 17, 2021 8:45:05 GMT 1, I am looking forward to this catalogue. Can't wait to get it. As for your other comments, accusing the man of stealing is a very serious thing. You may not like him, but what does that have to do with anything. I don't like many shopkeepers either, many are rude these days. Doesn't mean I won't shop there. As for your greed comment, you sound jealous. Come to think of it, you sound more like an art dealer, who doesn't like the competition. Maybe I sound biast, but I have bought from Hessink's many times. I always received good advise, and I always got a guarantee from them. True, they are not Sotheby's or Christie's, but what they sell is good.
You are rather suspect my man.
First post of the day distilled “read this, how can banksy condemn selling art removed from the street if he is doing the same.”
Second post “looking forward to this upcoming hessink auction of essentially all removed banksy street art.”
Third post “how dare you accuse hessink, i have bought from them and they are great.”
Seems like a rather shameless and poor attempt to hype something and defend someone.
Do you perhaps have an interest in the success of this auction?

Paul insect Over rated or not ?, by sgolby on Nov 30, 2021 16:13:00 GMT 1, NOT. He is massively underrated. I believe if you look at several fo the artists that have come out of that era, his ability to pivot into the fine art world, his diversity in skill media and execution all point to an artist who is likely underrated and undervalued. The glass works in his last show were brilliant. His refusal to pivot into "Merch," such as calleja or kaws or murakami or many of his other contemporaries just prove he is the real deal if you ask me. S

R.I.P. Virgil Abloh, by sgolby on Nov 28, 2021 20:13:11 GMT 1, It is a sad day. He was a genuinely kind person. His work was often polarizing, and while not my cup of tea, I couldn’t help but respect the guy.

I have actually had people ask me whether Belgium was in France (I used to live there), so I figured I would be crystal clear. If you draw my name please message me and I will send you my address. Happy holidays. S
