Revive new show from Martin Whatson..., by sonmi451 on Sept 30, 2017 23:20:03 GMT 1, I hate wading into the Whatson debate tha permeates all of his threads but appreciate the critical, yet respectful manner of the convo in here. I agree w Nobokov... people who like his art seem to be drawn the beauty of it. To me the "tags" almost have a Ab/ex quality to them that makes them pleasant to look at. I don't think anyone who admires MW's work is looking for the depth of a Banksy piece... just my 2 cents.

Felipe Pantone ๐ฆ๐ท Exhibition News โข Contemporary Art , by sonmi451 on Jun 2, 2017 20:15:01 GMT 1, I'm not sure the issue with 'workshop'. It's interchangeable with 'studio'. She has her own personal IG account too. Is there information that a team is executing her ideas? Even if so, is that so highly unusual? As for output, she is catering for demand, which is high, her work is liked by a large cross section. You raise a good point. The way the comments are written on the IG posts gives the impression that here is a team painting pieces in the studio. Maybe that's not the case and just her painting ? The two being separate is exactly how it works having recently just corresponded with Katrin (art) and her workshop/staff (logistics, media/promotion). The people in her studio aren't even privy to her painting technique!

Anyone reading my comments about the recent RA abstract expressionism exhibition would know that that is not my opinion. My reason for passing is that for ยฃ700 plus vat plus shipping plus framing cost, I could instead by a spectacular original by (at that price not even) an up and coming artist. This was absolutely not pointing at you Coach . Just a general comment that "throwing paint" was never an apt criticism of Abstract art, whether it be KF's or any other artist's. I also loved the RA show, lucky I am local, so went 4 times. Went initially all giddy to see the Rothkos, but the two massive Pollocks just blew me away (not that the Guggenheim one is aesthetically pleasing to me, but it is so fascinating to see the context and piece by which he discovered his style). Also one of the best show catalogues of all times. As for the price of these two prints, my take would be to seriously encourage anyone going for both (+ shipping + framing) to consider saving for a small OGs on reflective paper instead (the A4 size ones go for circa 2600ยฃ). They are sold framed and much better than both of these I would say Excellent advice RE: skipping the prints for an OG... got one of those reflective A4's recently and stare at it everyday...

Of course I'm biased toward her work and AbEx in general, but if you ever get the chance to see one of her OGs in person, you'd be shocked to see how much activity and detail goes in to her unique work.

Good luck to all going for them. Probably snag one myself. Biased here and FYI but she has a few works on smaller reflected paper at various studios right now that sell for far less (in the 3000 Euro range) ... that said, much more than her prints.

Advice on art please, by sonmi451 on Mar 24, 2017 17:42:42 GMT 1, agreed on the sentiment to control your buying impulses for most prints/multiples in favor of saving for originals when possible.
