Grayson Perry ๐ฌ๐ง Ceramic โข Tapestry โข Exhibition News, by ab3 on Jan 20, 2021 13:30:41 GMT 1, I also ordered a new plate to see what was on the back, how they differed and have the two types. Here are some pics for anyone who wants to see the difference. You need to buy a third plate to complete the set. I do like things in three. It is the magic number.

What TV are you watching at the moment?, by ab3 on Dec 23, 2020 14:10:29 GMT 1, Succession is a marvellous show. Also watched 'Devs' a few months back and thoroughly enjoyed that too. Can highly recommend both. Is Succession watching in the UK for free anywhere? Sky TV have it i think. (but you need Sky)

Prospect Cottage needs you now Art Fund, by ab3 on Dec 9, 2020 16:01:04 GMT 1, Just to let anyone who's waiting know that my Michael Craig-Martin print arrived today (after 10 months).
It was worth the wait though.

Magnum Square Print Sale Password?, by ab3 on Oct 19, 2020 15:40:59 GMT 1, Co-sponsored sale with Aperture.com. Yep about two mins after posting my question I worked it out and the fact that some of them are in a smaller collection to buy rather than every print.

Girl with red balloon framing options, by ab3 on Sept 26, 2020 13:56:49 GMT 1, When I got one framed back in 2005 I went with a mount board (as that's what the framer recommend and I was doing with other prints) and a black (Ikea) Frame (print only cost ยฃ75 so seemed a waste to spend money on an expensive frame at the time).
After a while and the value going up, I put in museum glass to protect it. And a while after that I decided to change the frame to a white frame. I'm still really liking the simplicity of the white frame.
Make sure you post a pic here of what you decided in the end.

Art Insurance in the UK, by ab3 on Sept 22, 2020 15:57:20 GMT 1, I was a bit worried about this and different insurance companies passing the buck. (We all know that they will do anything they can to get out of paying money out.)
So I asked Brownhill who manage / work with / have some sort of connection with Hiscox Art insurance for a home insurance quote when mine was up in Feb. So that I could get home and art all through one broker, that way if there was an issue they could sort it all out.
They got me a competitive quote from Aviva Home and Life so now my art and home insurance is through one company and they can't say they didn't know about it.

Damien Hirst H8 โข Fruitful and Forever, by ab3 on Sept 15, 2020 21:26:39 GMT 1, What are those pictures on the floor behind him in the images. Are they cherry blossoms prints done at the same time and same printers? Or are they actual paintings?
Will we be seeing some cherry blossom prints at some point?

When did you buy your Banksy print/original?, by ab3 on Sept 4, 2020 9:36:56 GMT 1, Who found a Banksy pint in a charity shop? What print? Where? How much? So many questions. My thoughts also. If true, how have we not heard of this before now. He did place a lot of items in a Bristol Oxfam at the time of his museum exhibition. Perhaps something to do with that? Did he not also do a Hitler painting that he gave to a charity shop in New York to sell at auction? I thought it was just stickers in the Bristol Oxfam, maybe i'm wrong, but WE NEED TO KNOW!!!!!

Banksy Owners! How do you intend to avoid capital gains tax?, by ab3 on Sept 1, 2020 8:08:00 GMT 1, The chancellor may be making an announcement on increasing revenues from Capital Gains Tax (amongst other things) soon. In order to pay for all the borrowing they've been doing.
(this is according to some papers though, but I can see him doing this and raising tax on petrol as well at the very least).

Michael Craig-Martin Print - Turning Pages, by ab3 on Aug 4, 2020 8:06:25 GMT 1, I'd love this if it was half the size and half the price. Just don't have space for something this big at the moment.
I do however like those Tracey Emin plates. Should go nicely with the Grayson Perry plate I got a while ago.
Who knew i'd be the kind of person who had plates on the walls of my home?

Magnum Square Print Sale Password?, by ab3 on Jul 27, 2020 19:33:38 GMT 1, There are some really great images there in this round. I had a few on the short list. The Hoepker, the Robert Capa (i'd love to own one of his prints and if you get a chance read his autobiography). I really liked the Hassan Hajjaj. Which I think was my fav image overall it's a very cool vibrant image. However the Capa image didn't do it for me, i thought it was a bit boring and being a portrait photographer and looking at the other Magnum prints i've got (as well as the empty black frame) the Hoepker Ali portrait was a no brainer. If anyones got any images of their Magnum prints framed and on the wall, i'd love to see them. Love seeing how people display their prints. Shocking photos but get the idea...Iโve also got three Hidos together in a similar way Very nice.
I think we have very similar tastes. I've got two of those prints. The McCullin & the Parr, although i'm still waiting for the Parr to arrive from the last square print sale.
Thanks so much for posting.
Oh where did you get the frames from? are they the Magnum ones or from somewhere else?

Magnum Square Print Sale Password?, by ab3 on Jul 15, 2020 19:32:22 GMT 1, I emailed Magnum a few days ago and they told me there will be more information about the next Square Print sale within the next week or so. ...so much for not buying anymore art...! Cool, i'll have to pic something up again. Building up a nice little collection. Although i'm still waiting for my Martin Parr from the last one to arrive.
Anyone else still waiting?
