Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by avec art on Apr 11, 2023 19:47:47 GMT 1, An Original and hand signed Damien Hirst, not only that but each is unique and presumably to its owners exact tastes, along with full provenance.
What is the full provenance, just curious?

Kenz ๐น๐ญ Melbourne โข Exhibition News โข Art For Sale, by avec art on Apr 10, 2023 13:17:45 GMT 1, So you see an item for sale somewhere on the internet which think has a profit margin. You add on say 20% to the price, and paste it on here to see if you get a bite.
Has this worked yet? Perhaps it would be easier to pay an AI do to that part of it for you, even less work!

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by avec art on Apr 8, 2023 12:24:38 GMT 1, The problem I have with this is that you are basically paying for something that you yourself have created. I'm really struggling to see this as "a Damien Hirst". I think he should have chosen one of his original spin paintings and made that in to an edition on canvas. That would have appealed to me much more. I think our input is pretty minimal. The colour palatte is very limited and there's only a handful of algorithms to choose from. All we do is hit 'generate'. It gives the impression that it puts you into the artists shoes, but that's very far from it. This is computer generated art, of which Hirst is happy to put his name to.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by avec art on Apr 7, 2023 19:58:05 GMT 1, The blur feature doesn't make a good image imo. I also feel that detail is lost due to the canvas texture. Perhaps these would've looked better on paper.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by avec art on Apr 7, 2023 15:12:41 GMT 1, How do the sneaker sellers and so on guess what will be the most profitable designs to go for?
Or will many who just care for the resell value simply hit randomise and buy irrespective of what they look like? You know how they can break down auction sales in terms of colour balance, and I've heard that overall red art has a larger selling margin than other colours.

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by avec art on Apr 6, 2023 11:03:54 GMT 1, Congratulations, and you only have 6 months to wait
What I don't understand is why each generated title starts with the word 'Beautiful', that's a little pointless and saccharine. Why not just have them all unique.

Think of the ebay pages, unlike most flipped releases each one will be different, and we'll get to see what DH art looks like when put into our hands to create. No wonder they don't want them back.

Remi Rough ๐ฌ๐ง New Print Release โข Exhibition News , by avec art on Apr 5, 2023 17:26:53 GMT 1, Saying that I felt they had a Mondrian quality seemed to really get a couple of you riled up, not entirely sure why tbh. It's not as if I'm making a serious proclamation on the state of art, just that a few of them reminded me, not you, but me of Mondrian, that's surely a subjective point of view. Well presented release by Agent of Change!

Heritage Auctions ๐บ๐ฒ, by avec art on Mar 28, 2023 19:23:42 GMT 1, I think we need to rewind back a bit. I'm not ready to make the assumption that they're 2 different pieces. If they really are 2 different sizes, that can't easily be explained by restoration. But it is possible to measure a diamond (tipped up square) shape in different ways. It's also possible to take a wrong measurement, stranger things have happened.
On the face of it, and I haven't looked very deeply, (size aside) the restoration version of events seems plausible. The metal post has changed and screws etc, but it seems to me like it's been very heavily cleaned, and mostly repainted, albeit differently to how it looked originally.
But places where paint is lost altogether are the same areas on the original pictures. The bend to the bottom of the sign appears to still be there.
If they are not the same sign, then someone has gone to great lengths to make it look as though it is the same artefact after going through a cleaning process. But I'm not convinced this is what has happened. There may be some private scrutiny/discussion which clearly demonstrates they're different pieces, but if that is the case it needs to be brought out in the open. On the basis of what we can see in this thread I think there is not enough evidence to show that.

Banksy "Kate Moss" Postcard, by avec art on Mar 20, 2023 13:01:03 GMT 1, The fakes look really horrible. Catawiki knock them out week after week, they couldn't discredit themselves more if they tried. At least on ebay you can report an item (although rarely to never act on the report), catawiki you're given assurance of the 'experts' opinion ... it's ridiculous. Especially as they don't seem to know their ass from their elbow, unless they deliberately turn a blind eye. can I say ass?

This is a fun workshop for your kids where you get to take home the stamp they made. Itโs a flimsy bit of paper, thereโll never be any provenance, and it was made by them not Stik. But it is fun and the kids enjoyed it. The large stamps were carved by Stik, the visitors / children are the printers in this case.
