Gonefellow 🇬🇧 Print Release • Street Art • Art For Sale, by james10 on Feb 24, 2018 4:42:20 GMT 1, I just dont get one thing about this Gonefellow/Andy diatribe, and i hope that with this post i will make myself clear enough as english is my third language
So many people here are complaining about the fact that the owner of a gallery is trying to promote an artist - and this already make no sense to me, cause he is just doing is job and apparently he is being very good at it.
In particular, people are complaining about the fact that Andy is playing around with the idea that there is somehow a connection between Gonefellow and Banksy. For some of them, Andy is just trying to rip people off selling pieces of paper with no value getting an advantage from this mysterious connection said above.
Now lets talk about "art", as this forum is supposed to be about it first. Art, in particular modern/urban art, is a very controversial and subjective matter. So you have people thinking that Gonefellow does sh**y works, others liking it. Putting it simple: you like it, you buy it. If you dont like it, you dont buy it.
If you buy it just because somebody might want you think that GF is somehow connected to Banksy, well that is at your own risk; but then, it is not about art anymore, as it turns to be about making a profit. Thus, if you buy it just cause Andy or members of this forum are playing with it, you are nothing different from those people (flippers) that gets slammered on this forum everyday.
So my question is, if people dont like it, why is everyone so worried about Gonefellow's art? If you dont like it, does it really matter for you if it is Banksy related or not? And why you are so eager to know who is Gonefellow and where he comes from?
If this info will change the way you value his art, then probably you arent any better than a flipper. And maybe those who just keep questioning/criticizing it are on the same boat.

Gonefellow 🇬🇧 Print Release • Street Art • Art For Sale, by james10 on Feb 2, 2018 18:31:56 GMT 1, Maybe the same motivation than for the meat truck with Sincura... Banksy in mind, and lovely stencils.. I like this “ old style “ I understand people liking the Graffiti Truck... it makes sense and is sort of funny. Using Banksy's own artwork and playing with it. Rude Farmer is obviously LF, and was for charity... funny, novelty print. But this print? LF again! Why? i am sorry but what does LF stand for?

Bristol Museum • Paint Pot Angel Poster • WITHDRAWN , by james10 on Jan 16, 2018 16:05:22 GMT 1, It is funny. Wasn't he a promoter of free art somehow? Wasnt stealing art a cool thing to do? Wasn't he the one saying that people could use is art without any kind restriction?
How come now he halts the selling? He could have just stated that it is not an official piece. That's all. He should not talk about authorizations..

Gonefellow 🇬🇧 Print Release • Street Art • Art For Sale, by james10 on Dec 31, 2017 22:29:18 GMT 1, I dont get why people keep blaming Andy from CG for this. What do people want? A public announcement authenticated by a notary? Gallery website: two different artists; Interviews: two different artists. Done.
People talking a lot about Gonefellow, for sure it is great for his gallery; but it is the people itself that are doing all the work by keep talking about him, not Andy.
Anyway, I think that the graffity truck is one of the best print released in the last years, cause it is well executed, ironic, well balanced.. i just love it. For the other two works he did, i would say the farmer is "just a print", while the boxhead.. well, to use the kindest words i know, i would say "i just dont get it". So at the end of the day, if i have a chance i would buy a truck in less than a second, while really dont care about the boxhead even if it was made by Picasso.

for sale Pose (one sold), Dface, Kunstrasen - price reduced, by james10 on Nov 8, 2017 1:06:08 GMT 1, ok, thanks for the price check. also just got a few PMd in less then 5 minutes about that Kunstrasen, so apparently i can ask for a bit more and i am sorry guys but that is what i'm going to do.. The money i will get from this sale will be spent on prints that only a few months ago were 7/8 times cheaper than what i got offered, so i am not ashamed to say that if i can get 200€ more i will do.

for sale Pose (one sold), Dface, Kunstrasen - price reduced, by james10 on Nov 8, 2017 0:44:37 GMT 1, Hi all, as i finally got offered two pieces i was looking for for a long time, i need to cash out a little bit. That's why i am also open to offers.
In order to have a better idea about the selling prices, a few days ago I posted in the price check thread but no one replied (suggestions are more than welcome if you think these prices are out of the market); so i will ask for about the same(ish) money they cost me, including custom fees or any other expenses i incurred in when buying them (all of which i can prove).
Kunstrasen - Fighting a blank paper HF 1/1 framed, museum glass, never exposed to sunlight;
For this i will ask for 800€ 600€ (plus paypal fees and shipping). (upgraded after price check)
Dface - Union Jacked, regular edition, framed, anti reflective glass, never exposed to sunlight;
For this i will ask 470€ 350€ (plus paypal fees and shipping).
Pose - Couple's Therapy 1, regular edition, anti reflective glass in a silver mirrored frame with still its protective film on, never exposed to sunlight.
NOW SOLD!
Frames are beautiful and really add value to the prints, but their costs are not included in the prices. If you are interested in them, this is how much i paid for each one: Kunstransen 350€; Dface 200€; Pose 230€; make your offer on the frames otherwise i will be happy to keep them and adapt some other prints to them. If you want it, I can ask my framer to provide the papers stating the quality of the glass. It would be a shame not get the frames as well.
I do also have Pose "Mirror" regular edition that i might give away, but i am not sure about letting it go.. anyway, i will eventually sell it only if two of the above three prints will be sold.
Sorry for the quality of the pictures, but i am renovating the apartment and did the best i could there with no lights.
just to let you know, I also put these prints on the bay at higher prices..
this post was edited as, by mistake, i put in "fighting a blank canvas" instead of paper, and it generated a bit of confusion. Sorry if somebody thought it was a canvas.. free photo hosting

an happier D*Face, by james10 on Oct 30, 2017 12:42:33 GMT 1, Hi all, I have a bit of an issue here.. I really, really like Dface, but my family is definitely not into dead people. I cant imagine my kid walking in the living room without being scared by a skull with exposed teeth and red eyes. That is why I got myself an Union Jacked, but although it looks good on my wall, i could easily take it down for one of his future pieces that will eventually fit my family's criteria!
Do you have any idea about when (or if) a print of any of his lighter works will come out?
I mean, he did some familyfriendly stuff like love and let go, love struck, looking back, i feel so incomplete, love trap, bad lands, laste embrace before departure, etc..
I noticed that normally prints are released 18ish months after his murals, so in the next months we might have a new release.
I dont know about his older pieces. Did he ever released a print that didnt have major references to death?

New Pose "Couples Therapy 3", by james10 on Oct 26, 2017 15:31:34 GMT 1, As said in the other thread he did some amazing stuff lately, but the choiches of some of his latest prints are quite disappointing (except doll green). It is such a pity as on instagram you can see he is working on very nice pieces.
This one doesnt leave me amazed as a Pose normally would do.
The only thing that sticks out from it is the donald trump's hair.

You lucky guy

I was really impressed by their live.. I'll let you know in july.
ps. I am an huge oasis fan, saw something like 15 gigs, so that is why when it comes to live concerts it is easy to amuse me - cause oasis were the worst

The old ones are a classic and that is why shows sold out immediately. Plus, like it or not, their gigs are unbelievable even if your are not a fan.
And noel gallagher opening? well, that is why i bought the tickets!

DFace • Union Jacked Print, by james10 on Dec 17, 2016 16:54:59 GMT 1, Mine is stucked at the custom. Guess the are preparing the 120€ invoice for the custom tax. For those who already have it in their hands, what about the colours? Are they sharp enough As there are some pictures showing these bright colours, other showing darker colours? Can't wait..
