OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by therivler1 on Jan 29, 2014 14:11:24 GMT 1, so it looks like my first failed attempt at purchasing actually went through. It was an AmEx. The side said it failed and I tried again with paypal (different card). That went through fine, and it shows payment with paypal, not AmEx on my order history.
any one else have this problem?

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by Hubble Bubble on Jan 29, 2014 14:11:36 GMT 1, Do you like it though, eschiff? (serious question) Or is it that you simply have to have something by the twins in your collection? Personally, I just don't get it at all… it's one of the ugliest things I've seen in years but fully understand beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But also I think some people just want an Os Gemeos irrespective of whether it's attractive to them or not. It's this latter area that I find a conundrum.

But also I think some people just want an Os Gemeos irrespective of whether it's attractive to them or not. It's this latter area that I find a conundrum. HB Good question. I love the image because when I've gone Os Gemeos hunting (mainly in Italy and Brazil) many of the images i've found are similar with the characters coming out of the wall. Is it my favourite image? Probably not. But how many people are now parting with 10-15k for a CYW which in my opinion is one of the worst images banksy has every produced. there's value in who the artist is certainly but as other have alluded to, the scarcity also bumped up this price.
I would say your argument works for (or against) banksy as well but is very rarely talked about. I think the reason there's so much backlash on this thread and surprise at the price is a lot of new members don't know the twins like they know Banksy (or even truly 'hot at the moment' artists like Phlegm, Dal, Dotdotdot, etc).

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by adewilliams on Jan 29, 2014 14:30:26 GMT 1, I thought it was an OK print, I see Os G as more illustrators than artists, there's no idea there, they paint a yellow character in different scenarios. I'm not sure how this will be important in 10 years time but sure its worth money now as they did a collaboration with Banksy 3 months ago.

I happen to follow the work of twins for years, so the quality of info, statements and opinions some of you are posting here, is shocking! I definitely need to keep that in mind when Im reading about an artist who Im not that familiar with just so I don't get a completely wrong and false image of the actual situation.

I'm willing to pay upto 10k a pop each of these babys.
..to this:
I thought they would have made more of a effort on the print, I wouldn't pay 1k for this print.
..to this:
In pounds = £3311 - that was price for people who lived in the uk and europe people who lived in usa and overseas got good deal on this = £2790 I willing to buy few of these right now.
Amazing scenes.

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by BKBOI on Jan 29, 2014 15:08:38 GMT 1, Very naive of people comparing artists, world rankings and how much their prints should sell. This sold out because there is a market for it even at that price. Flipping on ebay is a good sign of a healthy market. I just wonder why they have not announced the price and showed the image from the beginning if there is a market for it and this price is normal. If the print sold at this price is just for the collaboration with banksy and because they had never done other prints in the past. If they do not want to bring down the price of this print surely they can not do others prints in the next years saw the price at which they have sold this one, because as soon as they will make another print this idea of uniqueness will vanish. For Those excited about the collaboration with banksy I remind you that Mr Brainwash has an entire movie shot in collaboration with Banksy Like I said earlier, there is a market for it. People who needed to know already saw the image and already new what the price was going to be. I am not in that circle. But I would like to say that I actually saw the entire image 2 days before release date because I know people who are in the circle.

On the streets of São Paulo, Brazil a new form of graffiti was born. Like wildfire, the works of artists like Os Gêmeos, Nunca and Nina spread through the streets of the city, and then to art galleries and museums around the world. But when a new law against visual pollution threatens to destroy their work, the artists unleash a graffiti war against the local government, giving birth to one of the most creative resistance movements in Latin American art.
