Adam Pendleton ๐บ๐ธ New Print Release โข Exhibition News, by nobokov on Apr 28, 2021 3:19:03 GMT 1, Can anyone explain Black Dada? As simplified of an explanation as Iโve seen but he does get rather expansive in other interviews. Worth digging and reading up on. So what is Black Dada, in a nutshell? The variety of sources within the Reader, the artist explains, are about โradical juxtapositions,โ i.e. bringing voices together in a way that disrupts easy logic and established history. And yet his juxtapositions do have a point. In this case, Pendleton is drawing connections between classic European Dadaist texts, which were responding to the violence and trauma of World War I, and the writings of figures like Black Arts Movement leader LeRoi Jones (Amiri Baraka), responding to the violence of racism in the 1960s. Relating these art historical threads creates an avenue for considering the experiences of shock and displacement in both anew, opening up new potential associations. Thanks. It all sounds nice and intellectual, but I dont think I understand. I'll have to dig more into it.

Gerhard Richter ๐ฉ๐ช Abstract โข Contemporary Art โข New Relea, by nobokov on Apr 26, 2021 15:52:33 GMT 1, Hey UAA Dropping in here to say that if anyone is interested in selling their Richter artworks (recent Cage works or other), drop us a PM, Email or WhatsApp message to discuss what we can offer via our private sales. Have a great week and be safe. New Art Editions Hi New Art, Can you clarify what you mean when you say 'be safe'? I've seen it a few times now and I find it an unusual way for someone to sign off. Thanks. It means wear a condom.

Damien Hirst H9 โข The Virtues, by nobokov on Apr 25, 2021 19:16:03 GMT 1, thought these would look good as a diptych, took a while but they are aligned correct They look pretty cramped there though. Smaller works might work better on that wall imo.

Gerhard Richter ๐ฉ๐ช Abstract โข Contemporary Art โข New Relea, by nobokov on Apr 22, 2021 23:27:53 GMT 1, These images stopped me pulling the trigger. Iโd have been really disappointed with the quality; so thanks I can see why one might think that. But hold on. These were made with Richterโs oversight, and his modus operandi as an artist often involves distorting the original image/photo slightly... I donโt know if this is unintentional, bad quality printing. Iโd be inclined to give Richter the benefit of the doubt that itโs meant to look like this.
I think Richter just forgot to tell someone to refill the ink cartridges.

Artists that Sell Out Instantly, by nobokov on Apr 13, 2021 15:43:30 GMT 1, Half the sales are pulled or pre sold anyways on most releases these days. Itโs hard to tell what is really โsold outโ properly. I mean having Pre sales for a month + is kind of cheating as well. I know many artists and galleries who hold prints from releases for themselves and other resellers. Itโs part of โcreatingโ a market..
And more than half the releases are bought to flip so we never know what the true demand for the artist is. Who knows how many unsold prints are just sitting in seller's flatfiles and tubes. It all just seems like a huge pyramid scheme, each person looking for another richer fool to sell off to.

Artists that Sell Out Instantly, by nobokov on Apr 13, 2021 15:36:00 GMT 1, It's expected though given that the majority of members buy and sell art religiously. This forum is mainly used as a vehicle for hyping up purchases with multiple accounts, posting fake "Looking to buy.." posts. If you want to discuss art, it's probably best to befriend the artists themselves rather than the "collectors." I've got the buying part down, but I have the collector's gene and have a hard time selling anything.

Artists that Sell Out Instantly, by nobokov on Apr 13, 2021 15:25:35 GMT 1, ecudat agreed, art is certainly about taste, and I personally love abstract art, especially that which is born from graffiti. My point was simply that this board more and more feels like a reddit board dedicated to art investment as opposed to an art forum where people are introduced to and discuss artists and movements, as opposed to value.

Sorry about the crappy pictures, but they are still a bit rolled. The more I look, the more I like (except Abendstimmung, where the printing technique works a bit less well to me) even if they need a glass. http://instagr.am/p/CNh4rYulquK From the pictures, they kind of look like the quality of risoprints. But what can you expect from a poster.

Visit SEOUL ๐ฐ๐ท Korea Street Art, Galleries, Events, by nobokov on Apr 11, 2021 15:56:14 GMT 1, Hi guys, Jean Jullien has a sold out exhibition now at Korea. He will have soon another small exhibition at gallery Target at Japan. This gallery is famous for representing names has Rokkaku, Kyne, Yusuke Hanai and allows sold out the exhibitions before opening. The prices will raise for sure. The last year references for Jean Jullien were canvas from 70x50 cm where from 8-10k. If you can buy something below this prices donโt think twice. Best
His paintings don't include the thing that he's known for: humor. And he's not a good enough painter to do well on images of hikers and surfers.
