Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 12, 2018 14:33:44 GMT 1, I liked all the smaller Dots. Gritti & Beverly Hills were the best. Really strong. The PDF didn't do them justice. Unfortunately only relying on the pdf I left Gritti and Beverly Hills out of my register interest. Thinking of updating my form to include all 8 (instead of 3,4,5,6,8). I can afford one right now so I guess relying on your feedback, there is no wrong choice on any The fact is they are all good. The smaller dots appeal to me because they separate this practice from his grid spots which were traditionally bigger.

Sorayama has always been a commercial Artist but IMO is coming into his own as a fine Artist. He's getting his long over due recognition. The influence from Star Wars to Kaws is undenied. These contemporary collaborations are very smart moves. The Sculpture for Case Studyo's is sublime. This cheeky collaboration with a Le Petit Voyeur is clever too. Both reaching out of his cult Japanese following I'd say. Agreed. I think its a deal.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 12, 2018 10:26:19 GMT 1, The problem with those was all these people on the forum thought they were buying the equivalent of a Girl With Balloon, but like you said they all got a Toxic Mary and then all tried to sell them at the same time. Probably a handful but not as many as you think. Everyone has been scared off by the number 800. Kinda like how things cooled down for Heni Richters when flippers had sore anuses after they were raped by unsigned editions of 500, P15/P16. Due to the weight of these heffers, the cost of transporting them decimated any margins, hence many were stuck with them. Plus it was a Flow painting, the least desired from Richter's body of work. I've got a feeling history is about to repeat.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 9, 2018 16:06:02 GMT 1, All H5 editions with white backgrounds will sell out quickly, most likely via registrations from the preview event and allocations to some patron galleries. Some H5 editions with the black background might not sell out right away, and subsequently might be available to emailers. However it is possible these might also be hoovered up at preview night. If H6 editions are coming, I hope they are butterflies.

I never said anything about anyone getting burnt 2.7k for a signed anything by Hirst is good value, but again IMO the big flipper profits have definitely left the building. If short term profit is your motivation as I suspect LithographRoberts Is I would suggest there is better places to gamble your sheckles.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 9, 2018 11:42:50 GMT 1, You don't know much about the art market. I agree with both. IMO H5 is in a unique position of having the potential to both sell out and produce no profit for flippers. Which for Hirst is genius. Hats off. Robert I can't take your opinion on this matter seriously. You have an ulterior motive, as you showed us with your endless calls of "SOLD OUT" regarding H4. Then your "unbiased" valuation of 15k.
It is possible to create a frenzy and hype and "people that don't much about the art market" as you say being left holding the baby.
A lot of flippers were not pleased that H5 another 800 Hirsts were released a week after H4. It definitely devalued H4 and I own one. ;-)

Hewett has always produced Og's hence the demand outstripping the supply. This is his first foray into prints. I think its been very successful and the same DNA/ collectors of his Og's. I find it very difficult to relate Micallef's prints to his Og's to me they seem poles apart. Is that perhaps because his work has taken a new direction in the last few years? His prints relate to his earlier originals. As far as Iโm aware he has not produced any prints of his work since the bulk of his output has been (as far as I can tell) painting impasto portraits. I agree. I just find the comparison Micallef to Hewett a bit lazy. Hewett to Bacon maybe. Haha

When it comes to crunch time though (i.e. when they actually have to pay), and they're not surrounded by their friends drinking champagne....a lot less will buy.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 9, 2018 9:52:36 GMT 1, I think the flippers may struggle a little with this one. Also you don't have to be there to register. As we saw with H4 it isn't always first come first served. If this was the the case why not just queue up and pay. Yeah it was 2 weeks past when I was offered a H4 out of the blue. Because of the Tate membership element I think onsite applications will be 'processed' first, but yes I agree the prints that don't sell out would be more than likely offered to those who are on the email list for an application IMO you were offered H4 because the flippers bailed when they heard about H5. Hirst is a factory he won't stop. This is great for people that actually hang work, but not ideal for the flippers. Reading between the lines on this thread I get the feeling that quite a few people won't be hanging these. Again IMO.

Damien Hirst H4 โข Veils, by blerd on Aug 9, 2018 9:41:20 GMT 1, I can't help feeling that we have all been played perfectly by Hirst, Serpentine, Tate etc. H4 an edition of 600 is released to moderate hype and sells out. H5 an edition of 800 gets released a week later to considerable more hype, with talk of sleeping bags and sarnies. At this rate H6 will need the Riot squad! Very clever guy that Hirst. ;-) For me it's win win, I like them aesthetically and hope to have 3 on my walls from both editions. And for the flippers, they get to 6x their investment to the folks that rather not venture out to the Tate I think the flippers may struggle a little with this one. Also you don't have to be there to register. As we saw with H4 it isn't always first come first served. If this was the the case why not just queue up and pay.
