NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by RBK on Oct 21, 2007 7:42:02 GMT 1, It may be an 'advertised' 14K, but they will take 10K. Hopefully he will share what the end result is with us.

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by jp on Oct 21, 2007 9:39:26 GMT 1, I think now Adam has confirmed there will be no more prints it would explain the jump in price.
Actually, they were going for between 6-8k EACH *before* Adam confirmed there will be no more prints. It's just supply and demand. This subject comes up over and over on this board for every artist it seems. Remember the Micallef Laz 50 editions? There were multiple threads about the prices of those prints and for months people scoffed, then suddenly those threads disappeared and were replaced by "I can't believe I missed getting a Bomber Girl" type threads. It was so strange to watch the collective consciousness of this board make a 180 degree turn in just weeks. The price only went up and now people seem to accept that those prices are normal. Is Neate different? I don't think so. Let's revisit this thread in a year and laugh or cry at the market price for these prints.

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by lesbianwednesdays on Oct 21, 2007 10:02:57 GMT 1, I agree. I can't see that such a significant price differential is justified between the self portraits and all of Adam's other prints. Personally I don't even think they are his best prints (although they are good). I seem to be a minority in that view though.
not at all perry, i'm totally with you. i do quite like the white portrait but the red just does nothing for me. that said i wouldn't ever want either of them on my walls, as much as i love adam's work these two in particular say nothing to me and do not even have the fall back of being easy on the eye.
this might upset one or two but they are nothing more than a trophy, a status symbol that owning shows you are in amongst the elite.
at least with say 21stCL and in particular banksy's kate's, they are good looking images, significant in the artist's profile and instantly recognisable. yes i know a lot of the allure of neate's work is the subtlty of it and that how the more you go back to it, the more it gets under your skin but these two are not wholly symbollic of his work or even the best examples of what he's capable of.
so there. ;D

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by Strange Al on Oct 21, 2007 10:33:56 GMT 1, All biases aside though, there has been confirmation of a few sales ranging from the 8-11K range. I know a set went for 8k from a gallery because I just missed it. Now people are talking about 14k, nearly twice what gallery prices were only a month or so ago! I simply cannot see these being worth much more than 8-10k max. For 14k, I would go find a couple nice Francis Bacons... 
If people are willing to pay ยฃ14K for two Neates, then I guess that's what their worth. Though such prices are just ludicrous and simply not reflective of the wider contemporary art world. Whether Adam releases any prints in the future is open for debate, despite what he may or may not have confirmed. I'd be most suprised if we never see another printed work from Adam - he may not do anymore Giclees with Elms, but I really doubt that he'll preclude himself from exploring the medium in the future. As an artist, why would you?
Though something tells me we definitely aren't going to see any new signed prints from Francis Bacon. Yet as Jam has pointed out, you can pick up Bacon prints for the same price as this set of Neates. In terms of international status and reputation, these two artist's a just miles apart. Neate is barely known in the contemporary world, while Bacon is one of the most well known and desirable figurative painters ever to have picked up a brush. While Adam's originals sell for 10s of thousands, Bacon's sell for 10s of millions. Yet Adam's prints are as expensive as Bacon's. It simply makes little sense.

LOL
Trophy and Elite, thats quite funny :-)
I dont think people would buy and pay for framing for these 2 to be on their walls even at the original price of ยฃ1350 each if they didnt like the image?
Just so they can walk past and say oooh I own one of these and that makes me special and elite hehehehehe :-) that makes me laugh
I think people buy them and put them on their walls simply because they like them, end of!! unless of course they buy them just to leave them in a tube under the bed or in a cupboard. Thats not quite the same as buying the image to see it, is it?
I will edit when my head clears a bit from last night :-)

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by worlddomination on Oct 21, 2007 10:50:31 GMT 1, The debate continues and i think most of the view points are fairly representative of the feelings of most people. The only reason that these prints are for sale is to fund another rather expensive purchase. I may well direct funds from somewhere else to go through with that purchase in which case i will withdraw them from sale in any event. As for the price well the market will dictate that, but all i can say is that i have had a considerable amount of interest, but they are at this point still for sale........

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by lesbianwednesdays on Oct 21, 2007 11:37:13 GMT 1, You could get a red Head for cheaper than both.
maybe where you shop 
seriously though, my point was and still is that as 'strong' and 'powerful' as these images are they are, in my opinion - mine, not for putting on my walls. your comment frankie about it looking stunning in a museum makes my point perfectly, i for one don't want to live in a museum FFS!
as for the comparison to other comparable artist's so called seminal pieces, you are the one who keeps banging on about it being 'neate's kate'.
there won't be another kate, banksy leads where others follow, kate is beyond classic made all the more so by her tabloid exploits of recent years, admittedly after banksy had produced that print.
adam neate is awesome, his work in the main is too but in my opinion these two images are over hyped massively and when coupled with the banksy kate comparison they border on the rediculous.

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by carlito on Oct 21, 2007 11:46:04 GMT 1, for me when I was walking into Elms on the preview night..the red portrait made me stop in my tracks absolutely awesome, the work that went into this peice and its sheer size and striking style blew me away..if money and wall space were not tighter than a gnat's chuff this would be first on my list to buy - lovely piece...and controversially I'd say, rather than looking at a coked up never was I'd love to see this every day...

Agreed Carlito. I cannot belive the prices of these two. Absolute madness. 5K for a brand new print. This should not happen.....until next week when a signed trollies hits the bay at 5. Bah! Bah! Oi Oi!
Neate said he will be hitting the street again asap, so keep your eyes peeled. Cheaper and free!

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by skanky on Oct 21, 2007 12:55:11 GMT 1, I really dont see any "Hype" in the prices being paid for these two prints, they are rare and in demand. The market always decides the price. I get that they dont do anything for you Rudeboy and I get that other people think its too much to pay for these images. The "trophy and elite" comments were not right . I own these for the right reasons ie f**kin love em , they are framed up and are the bollocks. If we want to talk about Hype then Laz are the masters and fair play to them, what really pisses me off is the idea that its okay for Banksys work to sell for that price but no one elses. I am a big fan of Banksy and I cant believe the prices paid for sum of it but I would never come on here and run it down. Like it , Dont Like it , Buy it or Dont Buy it it really is that simple. It would be pretty f**kin boring if we all liked the same things. Rant Over

quite a simplistic take on it skanky, surely a forum is a place for people to offer their opinions which is what i did. i wouldn't come round your house and slate anything but surely in here it's fair game? *i'm not actually slating anything*
the reason i've formed that opinion is simply because i've never ever heard anyone discuss them on here without the price/value/exclusivity coming in to the discussion. interesting, very much so for myself, to hear so many people speak so vehemently in defence of the pieces as artworks, i'm pleased.
the value is of little concern to me, i don't intend on buying them even at cost. although it would be almost impossible to determine it from my previous posts i simply much prefer adam's other work, specifically deep end, PWG and NOTV. they say a lot more to me and i could more than happily live with any one of or indeed all of them.
perhaps it's a little poor of me to dismiss something purely on the terms of liking something else more but i don't think these are neate's highwater mark, maybe ask someone who has never seen his work before to pick a few favourites. i'll bet my house on the fact that these won't get picked, certainly not both and that to me suggests the exclusivity is part of the allure.
just my opinion, maybe it's only us two then pezlow ;D

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by neutral on Oct 21, 2007 13:29:41 GMT 1, Maybe beside the point, but if I wanted to spend 14k tomorrow, given the availability, I will surely not buy these prints, or any prints as a matter of fact. You could buy an Harrington as well as a couple new comers canvases for that price and this will be only for your pleasure and not 50 or 100 others...

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by skanky on Oct 21, 2007 13:37:47 GMT 1, No worries I suppose it was a bit simplistic but it was the trophy and elite coment that brought it on. As you say I am defending the art not the price, the Tryptich is an edition of 50 and has not been in such demand so I am not alone in loving these works. Do you get my point with Banksys prices? Everybody says oooh ! when they reach new heights but if its anyone else the comment is crazy !. With regards your coments on the Kate I would have to agree with Carlito I would choose these everytime and would much rather have these on my wall. That for me is what its all about, what it means to you. Off to Upton Park now to watch the Hammers might drop in for a wee Queens Special

As you say I am defending the art not the price, the Tryptich is an edition of 50 and has not been in such demand so I am not alone in loving these works. Do you get my point with Banksys prices? Everybody says oooh ! when they reach new heights but if its anyone else the comment is crazy !. With regards your coments on the Kate I would have to agree with Carlito I would choose these everytime and would much rather have these on my wall. That for me is what its all about, what it means to you. Off to Upton Park now to watch the Hammers might drop in for a wee Queens Special |

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by lesbianwednesdays on Oct 21, 2007 16:57:48 GMT 1, sorry frankie and skanky, i really didn't mean to labour the point about kate, i simply meant in terms of reference - a high tide mark as such that a particular artist is gauged by and all other works fall in line accordingly.
21stCL is perhaps micallef's gauge yet unsurprisingly that does little for me too!
maybe someone lucky enough to not only own the pair but have them hanging too would like to invite me round for a cuppa and i can eat my words. or not
i stand by my indifference, must say the sway of opinion against me by people i would rate as not only knowing their onions but also having exquisite taste, so i will keep an open mind. for now.
i hope none of you think i'm anti-neate in any way, sincerely not the case.

NEATE WHITE AND RED SELF PORTRAITS FOR SALE, by pezlow on Oct 21, 2007 17:04:19 GMT 1, Personally I thought the 2 original self portraits were amazing. I stood and stared at them for a good 5 minutes drinking them in.
And I'm not saying I don't like them as prints because I do. But I just think they are not as good as some of Adam's other prints (Deep End and Tea Drinker specifically) and I think maybe one of the reasons for this is that they lose so much being translated from 3d in to 2d. But hey if I had had the opportunity to buy them at ยฃ1350 I would certainly have done so....
