New NOT NOT BANKSY release, by maxamaxa2 on Jul 7, 2019 18:21:23 GMT 1, Not everybody can afford or wants to spend what a Banksy costs.
Nope, I canโt. And wouldnโt prioritise LV or yeeze either, but in my opinion itโs not something that justify supporting the production of copies/items that are โinspired byโ. When looking at these and the Connor brothers โartโ you realise how insanely good the original artists are, which might serve a purpose but I still think that if one cant afford something, a copy will never fill that hole and is also supporting people that steal ideas for a living.
Realise that not everybody see it the same way, just finds it fascinating that so many banksy fans support something that banksy so clearly have shown his disgust against over the years.

What are the best urban art / street art blogs?, by maxamaxa2 on Jul 5, 2019 22:09:10 GMT 1, For a blog amateur, is there any app to insert blogs one wants, to get the updates there? Or do I have to monitor/visit every site for updates and reading?

Pawel Kuczynski - Thought Provoking Artist, by maxamaxa2 on Jul 2, 2019 16:44:45 GMT 1, Talented indeed and great images but I feel these fit better on the cartoon-page of a newspaper or instagram rather than collecting and hanging.

PATRICK HUGHES - NEW RELEASE!, by maxamaxa2 on Jun 25, 2019 22:26:44 GMT 1, ...or itโs done deliberately and is to: a; create discussion b; flash out the art nerds in a group of visitors
Guess it will be the result at least. After thinking about it, this piece isnโt as booring as if it would have been just banksys in it.

Hebru Brantley ๐บ๐ธ FlyBoy โข Lil Mama โข New Print Release , by maxamaxa2 on Jun 12, 2019 20:23:42 GMT 1, I'm chill right now but funny the conspiracy theorist who what, doesn't think there are 150 black people out there who can afford this print, is going to ask me to chill while dropping F bombs.... that is comedy. Ohh and just do what the forum tells you to do and buy LMAO "your infinite wisdom that most of the forum seems to be lacking in your opinion"
Tbh, you are the only one who is taking skin colour into this equation. The rest is talking about the artist and the market.
Anyway, the last year I have received quite a few pm:s on instagram from ppl wanting to buy my hebru prints (they are not for sale). The prices have been higher that I expected them to be, so apparently there is a market for them even if itโs not mentioned on here.
However I donโt feel this particular image, I mean what is that? Two boys with waves as hair, is one of them wearing a mask? The work simply dont do anything for me. Think he normally makes interesting works, loads for the community and are an interesting artist thou, this price jump seem steep but mostly because I donโt like the image.

Kaws โข MOCAD Print Edition, by maxamaxa2 on May 8, 2019 17:33:07 GMT 1, Didnโt dare since the text said a donation didnโt guarantee a print. Did it say if you got a print in the receipt? It does, but the wording is so it's not like you're "buying" a print. Tax reasons probably.
Darn, was too cowardly to push the button

Flatfile materials, by maxamaxa2 on Apr 27, 2019 18:41:48 GMT 1, Thank you. How can one know for sure if something is acid free. Wood is acid free but, is wood ok? Does it transfer smells? Does it produce mold? Any other problem?
Wood is normally not acid free, one can buffer it temporary but will become acidic again over time. Thatโs also why normal paper isnโt archival. Think basswood is ok thou if wood is needed, but not certain. Itโs tricky to know, the best is to buy materials from trusted sources whom states that the material is acid free. You can use a ph-pen to test that itโs ph neutral, only show the current state and not how it is over time thou.
This link is quite informative even thou itโs old: insidetheconservatorsstudio.blogspot.com/2013/10/what-is-acid-free.html?m=1

Jigsaw puzzle, by maxamaxa2 on Apr 15, 2019 7:43:46 GMT 1, Could it be displayed in a UV perspex box that's tilted at an angle? Or maybe individually applying japanese paper and wheatpaste to 500 pieces and hinging
If its made of wood it might be enough to create a slope in a 5m deep frame with a stop in the foot to rest on. Ultimately with a passepartout to secure the edges.
Seem like they do something similar here but without a slope: m.jigthings.com/puzzle-frames/

Designer Chairs, by maxamaxa2 on Mar 9, 2019 17:09:03 GMT 1, I always liked this image with Christine Keeler posing on an Ant Chair.... It's a Seven chair, not Ant chair
Dont think its any of them, never seen a seven with a hole/handle in the backrest, and the shape seem off for a seven (and def not an ant)

Your latest Art Purchase?, by maxamaxa2 on Feb 23, 2019 22:08:36 GMT 1, Congrats! yeah its a stay in the tube for the framer jobby. What was the edition size of the navy?
Thanks! Seems to be an edition of 45 from what's written on the print. To be honest, I do not have a framer that I trust with this one here in Sweden atm and since it might take some time I don't want it all curly when I manage to find one.. but it sure will be a problem to transport it when the day comes. I envy the variety of competent framers available in the UK and US.

Your latest Art Purchase?, by maxamaxa2 on Feb 9, 2019 18:27:45 GMT 1, Never understood why people cover up the edition number. I don't think the 1/100 or 100/100 is any more valuable than 3/100.
Number of reasons. You donโt want a specific one tracked thru internet when dealt with or even new owners seeing their piece on someone elseโs wall or burnt by frequent dealings or similar. There is also a risk of bad rep if you show a pic of your print with the number visible and someone takes the photo to make fake adds, scamming ppl. You simply want to minimise the risk of getting your number soiled in one way or another.

Best way to store prints?, by maxamaxa2 on Feb 2, 2019 21:45:42 GMT 1, this looks good for me...
Do you put the print surface directly against the plastic? No risk of sticking to it or other damages? Are they opened on two sides so its easy to slip in, no risk of bending prints in that process? Thinking of a folder instead of a plan chest to save space. How do you store the prints thats over 40โ?
