New Futura book (signed) , by txjaxx on Dec 29, 2020 23:43:20 GMT 1, https://www.instagram.com/p/CJZfdRpHIGI Very happy with mine - no signature as expected. Had a quick flip through the book itself, and it looks great.

Takashi Murakami x Black Lives Matter , by txjaxx on Aug 19, 2020 6:06:47 GMT 1, Wow, terrible frame job. Why wouldn’t they try to match the matte to the paper? I got that same version of the series, but mine will be floated on a matching matte with a white frame. These do not photograph easily, but like a lot of great art, seeing it in person makes all the difference.

Recommended Art Books, by txjaxx on Jun 2, 2020 21:11:32 GMT 1, Thames & Hudson have got 30% off all books at the moment Signed Stanley Donwood There Will Be No Quiet for under 20 quid updated 3rd edition Grayson Perry monograph for just over £20
Stanley Donwood’s book is outstanding so far. I’m halfway through it - he’s a great author and of course I’m a big fan of the artwork. Gives great insight into the creative process.

Katrin Fridriks 🇮🇸 Reykjavík, Iceland • Abstract Art , by txjaxx on Nov 22, 2019 23:07:12 GMT 1, Picked one up. AA's customer service and shipping is always exceptional, and these look amazing. I have to say, the white, simple backgrounds work way better for me than the space-ish one, which seems cheap. Nonetheless, exciting release. B
I think the gradient background in her paintings has been a fantastic development in her work. It provides a whole new level of depth to the canvas. I have one of these gradient originals, and it just brings the paint in the foreground even more alive than it was before. I’m not sure how it will translate in a print, but it certainly doesn’t look cheap on canvas.

At the bottom it has a white bar where it has his name, the dates of the show, and the DMA logo. He signed it in between with a 2019, and he drew the zero as a basketball.

Picked up the catalog and a signed poster (signed posters only for members, one per membership; they have unsigned ones too). There is also a postcard, and they had the Clippings and Pots books.

Kaws • Lost Time, Alone Again, Far Far Down, by txjaxx on Dec 11, 2018 22:18:44 GMT 1, Seeing these in person was nice, but I still agree not the best work of his. I actually ran into him walking around at one point and said hi. He promptly vanished.

Jonas Wood print at Miami Basel, by txjaxx on Dec 5, 2018 1:13:57 GMT 1, I got there 30 minutes after opening and they were gone. They have one framed in the booth. Looks nice but not 15K nice.

Art Basel • Miami, Hong Kong, Paris, by txjaxx on Dec 3, 2018 5:14:30 GMT 1, Wow, looks like I got tickets just seconds before it sold out. This is my first time for art week in Miami. I'm excited and a little anxious about the volume! Should be fun anyway. I'm also checking out Untitled Art Fair, and I have VIP to the main Art Basel. Aside from these and SCOPE, are there any must-sees? Tomokazu Matsuyama has just completed a mural at Wynwood Walls - really looking forward to seeing that.

Where to buy Takashi Murakami Prints?, by txjaxx on Jun 11, 2018 21:52:28 GMT 1, The Octopus Eats Its Own Leg just opened in Fort Worth last week, and they had lots of prints for sale - some from 2009 all the way up to 2017. Prices were normal. The older rare ones were $6K but I got a 2017 Francis Bacon for $900. Sales are in-store only. I’d say about half the selection is sold out but as of Saturday, they had a lot left. They have an exclusive color of the flower plushes as well. And several copies of the now-rare Versailles book which are $400 (!!!!!).

Jamie Hewlett 🇬🇧 The Gorillaz • Tank Girl • Comic Book, by txjaxx on May 11, 2018 3:23:52 GMT 1, Found this a while back on Saatchi Gallery's online shop and picked it up when I was in London in March. It's a great medium-sized print. It doesn't show on the website, but it has a white border. The shop does an awesome job of packing it up, even if you buy it in person, and it comes with two COA's, one of which is signed by Jamie.

If you want to spend much more, Woodward Gallery in NY has all the tarot pieces (and the pines and honey pieces) in editions of 5. Some are sold out but the tarot ones they have are $3000. They seem to be twice as big as the Saatchi print though.

Katrin Fridriks 🇮🇸 Reykjavík, Iceland • Abstract Art , by txjaxx on Apr 26, 2018 5:43:56 GMT 1, Link to exhibit info
Two new related shows with Circle Culture in Berlin. One is all waste editions with some new media like emergency blankets, and the other is all paintings. The catalog shows a wide variety of sizes, way more than in past shows, including smaller square and circular paintings that are very reasonably priced, in addition to large pieces and some waste pieces presented as mounted sculptures. Really wish I could go!

Per her studio’s IG this week it looks like they’re being finished now.
