When she says it,it sounds like: ors jai-meos Imagine that said with an accent. sorry, I'm not being much help. 
Ok that gives me an idea of how it's said anyway.
Cheers.

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by eschiff on Feb 5, 2014 10:10:35 GMT 1, just got mine! Won't post the same pics as others but in case anyone was wondering, it's deckled on all sides. Got an appt at John Jones Monday morning and will let you guys know what i go with. I'm not the biggest fan of floating (i hate seeing the ripples and on a piece this big that scares me), so i'll probably go boring and classis, black frame, white mount).
Also, (and queue the jokes for it was 4k euros) but the packaging was outstanding. One of those tubes where the ends don't come off and if you haven't seen them before you spend 40 minutes trying to get it off before realising it's taped in the middle.
I know it's a small small detail in an avalanche of a thread, but makes you wonder how some galleries continue to ship prints that get dented/ruined.

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by Deleted on Feb 5, 2014 10:26:32 GMT 1, The narrative behind the twins drawings is worth a read
"The new exhibition of works by osgemeos at Galeria Fortes Vilaça presents 30 original drawings that reiterate the creativity and inventiveness of the Pandolfo brothers. These works were selected among hundreds of drawings by the artists, themselves compulsive and highly accomplished draftsmen. The show is of an intimist nature, which is something totally surprising in view of who the artists are. Here, spectators will find neither saturated colors and shimmer, nor an escalating occupation of space; rather, they will find the brothers' skillful handling of pen on paper.
All the drawings on show are small-format; originally, many of them served as studies for street paintings, others were conceived merely to be rendered on paper. The older drawings, dated from up to three years ago, were folded up and taken around, tucked inside the twin's clothing pockets. They are time-worn and bear traces of their roles as sketches, such as scribblings, soiled spots, and even blotches of spray paint.
osgemeos investigate elements of a fantastic world that populate a dream realm. They render fictional characters such as those with wide faces - a trademark of the duo -, naked female figures, and mermaids portrayed next to giant fish, cats, snails, etc. A reference to culture and the folk imaginary is also found in the artists' versions of such popular legends as boi bumba and negrinho do pastoreio. The result is a surprisingly delicate linework and rich, painstaking details.
A few works bear text fragments that not always relate directly with the drawing. They are loose phrases that end up unchaining amusing dialogues between the characters. The drawings on show are all self-contained, there is no narrative linking them.
The artistic duo's creative process is simultaneous; they work on a same piece of paper, at the same time. According to them, there is no particular limit to the creative activity; in fact, there is no limit at all. In Drawing, osgemeos offer viewers the possibility to glimpse at the early thinking and linework that have yielded their prolific oeuvre.
In recent times, the twins joined The Graffiti Project, along with other Brazilian artists selected to inscribe with drawings the walls of an 800 year-old castle in a rural area of Scotland - the first castle in history to have its walls covered with graffiti. In 2007 they have also shown solo at the Museum Het Domein of Sittard, Holland."

OS Gemeos 🇧🇷 São Paulo Graffiti • Brazil Street Art, by eschiff on Feb 5, 2014 10:51:17 GMT 1, other thing...not sure if anyone noticed but the print number didn't match the order number. Someone was spouting some bs about the first 34 went to friends and family? Well, i got under 34 and as far as I know am not friends nor family with anyone there. Seems a bit confusing but heyho...

Yes thank you drives me crazy that a gallery can send art that gets damaged from lack of effort. Happens to me like 50% of the time I am glad after all the moaning on this thread that 99prints did it right on the packaging. |

They obviously learned a lesson after the early ones.

I'm not the biggest fan of floating (i hate seeing the ripples and on a piece this big that scares me), so i'll probably go boring and classis, black frame, white mount).
I'm more a fan of the white frame, I like the artwork to not be constrained by the frame but to "float " beyond the border of the frame. To me black frames restrict the image. As I turn to look at my Kaws and DFace prints framed this way all that leaps out to my eyes is the print - no frame.
Other than photography, where a black frame can make a b&w print pop, most galleries/museums go with white or blond frames to minimize the frame interaction.
Just some food for thought.

I never sold a print a week after, but it is too tempting on this one.
Sorry if I hurt you
But at $12000 ONO it's yours.
