BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 16, 2020 18:47:59 GMT 1, I wish everyone would just block RC or just ignore him. There is zero value added by his comments or any replies.
Interesting recent posts regarding the framing of Thrower. The GDP hasn't exactly been accurate in some respects, namely the edition size and physical size of the Banksquiat piece. The site clearly states the Thrower will not come framed, so is this a change for the entire edition, or a change just for the direct sales that have been done at a much higher price than via GDP?
Can you even frame the three prints for ยฃ900?
Interesting.....

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 15, 2020 16:47:15 GMT 1, I understand and may agree on your point on comparable artistical value, anyway for what I found about quotations "size does matter". the thrower is 110 x 210 (based on the photos proportion I estimate 90x60 80x110 50x60) and the flowers one already has market value and quotations Basquiat is more or less 80x80 Anyway, if we got something is because at the question "Why does art matter?" we did not reply "MONEYYYYYYY"...... and more important.... Basquiat 250 edition, Thrower 100 edition Regarding the Thrower, I have only seen the website stating something along the lines of "100 available now" back when submissions were being taken. The printed showcard stated simple "from an edition".
I have a feeling the true number will be closer to 300 when all is said and done, and this isn't including the hand finished variant that is supposedly coming at some point.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 14, 2020 3:31:28 GMT 1, The quality of these black Bansquiats has me very excited for the Throwers eventual arrivals... what with this "new" technique used to make the screenprint, I'm looking forward to seeing how they come out and what the level of detail is like.
Congrats to Carls... very happy for you!

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 11, 2020 1:45:02 GMT 1, Does anyone want to hazard a guess at the number of Throwers that will be produced?
The show card stated simply "from an edition" if memory serves, but I can't remember what was listed on the website.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 9, 2020 22:30:26 GMT 1, Realistically I wonder how many people actually went for the cheapest items.
Out of the +400k orders that seemed to have been placed, a large percentage were probably voided for multiple entries and breaking other rules.
Then how many people looked at the prices of say the Banskiat and thought, if I'm lucky enough, I can stretch to that?
Could it be possible that only a couple of hundred people may have actually ordered the spray cans or the t-shirts and didn't disqualify themselves?
Out of everyone I showed the GDP site to and applied for something, not a single one went for anything but a print/sculpture. No cans, t-shirts or mugs.
Though I love the mugs, I couldnt bring myself to go for that over the chance at a Thrower triptych.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 7, 2020 1:13:21 GMT 1, Going to give you my dough recipe to try out... have fun
560g water (22c) 6g instant yeast 13g honey 18g EVOO
410g "00" flour 350g bread flour 56g rye flour 18g salt
You can use all bread flour for simplicity, but the finer "00" flour is helpful and the touch of rye adds good flavour.
Shape into 225g balls for 2nd ferment (cold ferment).
Should make 6 pizzas.
Great tip for home use, if you only want 2 pizzas, make the recipe, sauce all 6 pizza bases, top teh two you want to eat now. Then bake the other 4 with just the tomato sauce for 2-3 mins to set the crust. Allow to cool, cling wrap and freeze. When in a rush add cheese and other toppings and slide straight in the oven, better than any store bought pizza.
Back to topic... Wondering when my Thrower will arrive and how many letters will be "missing" from the sig! :-D

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Feb 7, 2020 0:43:06 GMT 1, Cool free pizza for you I made amazing pizza couple of days ago, I cooked the tomato sauce for 8 hours, and let the dough ferment cold for 12 hours, calamata olives and four different cheeses ๐ I recommend trying a 3-4 day cold ferment.
As for the sauce, my preference is for as short a cooking time as possible to keep a fresh and bright tomato flavour, rather than a deeper darker flavour... but each to their own! :-)

Clearly Banksy has a new style of signature as seen now on two different GDP pieces/products.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Jan 18, 2020 18:24:17 GMT 1, I spoke to the guy that purchased it. He sent me this picture of the 3 side by side. I think they look awesome. 100% no Photoshop, end of stupid blaming here. Agreed.
Everyone was focusing on the "shadow" on the underside of the drone where the light was shining, not realising that shadow is painted on the drone to give the desired effect of sunlight shining from above.... you know, as drones fly in the sky with the sun above them.
Looking closely you can see the shadow made by the drone onto the floor that matches the position of the light source.
Haters gonna hate.

Art Insurance in the UK, by chefd on Jan 16, 2020 1:08:53 GMT 1, Hi BigP,
Care to share who you ended up using?
Also any info on the pieces value with the associated premium... trying to get an approximation for what a (hopefully soon) incoming piece will cost me each year to protect.
Thank you

BANKSY Gross Domestic Productโข, by chefd on Jan 16, 2020 0:44:37 GMT 1, Well this is encouraging to see!
Just checked mail and junk mail folder just to be sure... no shipping email as yet for my Thrower.
The order number I received is fairly close to the number on his tag.... so hoping this means shipping info is imminent, but also aware that order numbers and shipping pattern wont align.
Been quite nice doing 18hr days for over a month as I've had very little mental bandwidth to assign to wondering when it will ship! :-)

To your question, yes, yes I have.
