Getting a frame for a poster, by AoT Framing on Jan 3, 2022 23:35:26 GMT 1, The best ready made frames are Nielsen Alpha frames. Aluminium and heavyweight and look great. Expect to pay around ยฃ75. A good frame makes all the difference.

What's the best tape to use in framing?, by AoT Framing on May 25, 2020 6:51:39 GMT 1, The framer have a 3 month waiting time Another framer uses P90 tape, is that also fine? Or is this one a lot better I only use the best full conservation materials and have a current turnaround time of usually less than a fortnight. T-hinging is the method favoured by most reputable framers. Water gummed acid free tape secured with 2 T hinges grabbing only 5mm of the print is what you should be aiming to do. www.aotframing.com

Nick Walker POW Instagram post, by AoT Framing on Jan 7, 2019 15:34:53 GMT 1, Every curator / gallery will dictate what it wants in a show and if Banksy didn't want it in the show, then diddums! Might be a little bit of sour grapes, due to declining popularity.... Nick is a decent stencil artist, still earning a living, although I am sure it is getting harder and harder as his market (I think) has narrowed. I know he does shows everywhere around the world, but how successful they are, who knows. I am sure he doesn't command the prices he used to..... For quite a while in the early days, 2007-2011'sh, Black Rat Press, Mike Snell (AKA one half of the Conning Brothers, sorry Connor Brothers), used to release his prints and punt all his canvases to the excited public! They used to sell out fast and the canvases commanded good money. The relationship soured between them though and Nick's market declined after that. How much do Nick's canvas's sell for these days? I remember a headless astronaut selling on here for 1k couple years ago, they used to be 20k! It is so important for artists to have good management to build on the hype. If is it not managed properly, it is all too easy for their popularity to decline (Micallef and Neate to name another couple who were at the top of the scene back then). It is easy to look back and be a little bitter when popularity wains, I hope this is not the case with Nick because I think he is rooted in the British urban art scene and I would like to see a resurgence of his work! Just my 2 pence worth............ Steve Lazarides manage Micallef who did alright with Banksy! There were 2 issues with releases by Micallef which I think have tarnished his reputation, namely the Impure Idol sets (too expensive on release) and GIWTBB.(edition size too big) Apart from that, Micallef bravely changed direction and IMO is producing his best work ever. Micallef's one of the most important British artists currently on the scene. Even his older work still stands up and is still as exciting and relevant. (21st Century Love, Dirty deluxe) just my 2 pence worth!

Pejac - Love Letter, by AoT Framing on Dec 6, 2018 15:36:47 GMT 1, Years ago I was berated by this forum for buying a signed Laugh Now for ยฃ1200. Admittedly at the time it set a record price for Banksy's work and it was a result of having a few beers and forgetting how much I'd bid on ebay for it, however, fast forward a few years and it did okay price wise. With this release, there isn't going to be much flipping potential for quite a while, but as Pejac is still relatively new in the art world, the mainstream will eventually catch up and will be hunting for little gems like this. And when your little envelope has risen to 3k+ in value, you'll be pleased you decided not to buy your kids any presents for Christmas 2018 and bought this instead, although they may disagree with you.

Art for Charlie - IRL1 Sale, by AoT Framing on Nov 9, 2018 16:49:06 GMT 1, Iโm changing my bid to ยฃ50 for just the Daisy print from the 3 Nettie Wakefieldโsthe one with the Mickey Mouse ears. That leaves 2 Wakefields plus the other 2 prints - rat and the cat The Wakefields are worth a fair bit more than this each - no idea about the value of the other two but it must be something. F.Y.I. I normally sell The Nettie's at ยฃ150 each and the Jim Sanders Rat at ยฃ100.

Instagram, what you have DONE !?!?!, by AoT Framing on Oct 18, 2018 10:10:01 GMT 1, Any platform for exposure to new art can only be a good thing, however, in my experience as a gallery owner, it makes little impact in terms of actual physical sales. I discovered Emma Hopkins through instagram, who currently has 117k followers, decided to get in touch with her as I absolutely love her work, framed up a few of her ยฃ100 prints, put them in the shop window and dotted around the gallery for well over a year, but sadly very little interest and just a handful of sales, even with 10k likes + on most of her images. I think instagram works best for established artists/galleries as another marketing tool, but for emerging artists, not convinced.
