Damien Hirst โข Great Expectations, by Icesay on Nov 9, 2023 21:02:04 GMT 1, Glad I sold my GE early on! It would never make my wall and it paid for my currency and then some! Really? you sold your GE and it more than covered your currency cost? I'm amazed by that! Someone paid at least 2000?

Mason Storm ๐ฌ๐ง New Print Release โข Who is Mason Storm?, by Icesay on Aug 31, 2023 20:40:45 GMT 1, Dude, what do you care? There is literally no reason for you to bang on about it. You're not saving anyone from making a terrible mistake. If someone wants to buy good for them but let people make their own mind up. You can't help people that on their journey of discovery. Let it go. Timmyup is clearly linked to Stowe (or is Mason ๐คฃ) so yanking their chain and calling out those who create and hide behind shill accounts to create hype. We know that Timmyup will be there regular like clockwork to comment on their next Stowe release. Anyway, this shows the ways in which different galleries operate and not to take people for idiots. Could be true but if what you're saying is true, it didn't work. The image was poor and no-one bought it. Eventually people see through the bullshit. Maybe Mason painted monkey parliament maybe not but good ideas are hard to come by. Hype or no hype. Creativity will always win through in the end!

Mason Storm ๐ฌ๐ง New Print Release โข Who is Mason Storm?, by Icesay on Aug 31, 2023 19:48:39 GMT 1, To be fair, that is when the west coast of the US wakes up. Iโm in the Netherlands and im guessing youโre from the EU also so itโs only 6/7am thereโฆ. I think you may be a conspiracy theorist ๐๐๐ As predicted Stowe have now taken the regular edition off sale saying it has sold out. Prints will sell at any time if people want them. Stowe waited 9 hours (long enough for all time zones) and when they didnโt sell out they took them off sale as they didnโt want to be seen not selling out. Itโs how some galleries operate matey!

Damien Hirst โข Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Icesay on Aug 22, 2023 21:36:40 GMT 1, Really poor figures for an open edition considering the advertising. Less is more sometimes! Congrats to those that bought and loved. Sincerely hope no-one bought to sell on. I think the figures are fine for a timed edition considering the below factors. 1. The prints were not on display at the opening of show. 2. Therefore all press/photography for series was on the originals and not prints. 3. Interest rates are through the roof and people aren't making big purchases. 4. We are not in covid anymore with people sat at home bored with furlough money. 5. Crypto is down! You could buy The Virtues, Empresses etc with Ethereum and Bitcoin. That could have accounted 25%+ of sales. 6. The Virtues were released separate to show in Paris allowing breathing space for both to be promoted individually. 7. Hirst only made 1 post about the prints on IG. The main exhibition took precedence. 7b. In fact Hirst spent more time on IG showing the signed posters! 8. People are away on holiday. 9. If you aren't subscribed to Heni or follow them or Hirst on IG you would have missed it. (including sponsored posts). 10. There have been a lot of timed edition releases since 2020. Total edition size is 55% of The Virtues which isn't bad considering. No one is losing money except for Seascapes maybe. That's a hella lot I'd excuses! Pretty amateurish...unless you're suggesting Heni didn't want more exposure and deliberately limited awareness.

Congrats to those that bought and loved. Sincerely hope no-one bought to sell on. A quick calculation in my head works out at around ยฃ10 Million in sales in 10 days. Not too bad to be fair when you add all the numbers up. To produce these I imagine that not much extra effort is needed from image to image. That's what it's all about...making money. I must have missed that.

Banksy Show โข Cut & Run โข Glasgow , by Icesay on Aug 20, 2023 20:21:56 GMT 1, its very easy to check for yourself and see that www.pestcontroloffice.Com takes you to their actual webpage. I have to admit, I haven't read all the hundreds of comments about this but... is 'pestcontroloffice' a real e-mail address used by pest control? I thought it was pestcontrol.com, not pestcontroloffice.com. If I'm right, then that means it's a fake address and has nothing to do with pest control, or Banksy either. Never seen that website before. All the wording looks iffy....

Damien Hirst โข Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Icesay on Aug 16, 2023 19:55:51 GMT 1, 13 pages tells me this is Hirsts worst series yet. Increasingly looking like just chucking paint at a canvas. Very few actually emote even in a visceral way. When buying art it should say something and make you feel something meaningful, particularly when abstract. When I look at these I think Durge.

Invader Enamel Pin, by Icesay on Jun 12, 2023 21:06:40 GMT 1, Yeah it's true....Invader basis main body of work on a space invader game....let's take it up a notch and say graffiti as in writing your name. It could be consider a brand. By repeating your name on trains and buildings or benches you could say you are advertising. If we continue extrapolating one could argue that Obey, Banksy, Kaws, Hirst, all have an identity and none of it is truly a new idea. Mad innit!

Damien Hirst - The Beautiful Paintings, by Icesay on Apr 3, 2023 19:00:15 GMT 1, It's all very clever I'm sure but from all the images I've seen they all look exactly like a computer generated image. They completely lack the semi chaotic effect of a real spin painting. A bit like the magic eye prints at Athena back in the day. It's cool playing with the generate function but that's about it for me. For me this experiment is more about the what is art question. I think that a bio-mechanical machine *a perso) has so many conflicts whereas an algorithm has none in this context. It has nothing to do with random. The experience of clicking generate does not illicit an emotional response.
