JR & David Lynch @ 99 prints, by kbfrombk on Apr 8, 2014 16:59:26 GMT 1, i think the shark has officially been jumped. i would love to know how they thought they could sell this at that price point. i guess the OS release went straight to his head. i always respected JR for what he has done in the streets and to help people but i never thought his stuff translated well to print and at this price point absolute madness.
I think a clear "birth story" of the print, an explanation of maybe what kinds of cool ways the print was created, or what the F the artist(s) were aiming at with this strangeness, would have been helpful.
Even still on basis of aesthetics this piece is made for a drawer ;-)

I haven't read ANY type of back-story to this print aside from the hyping by 99p...

Still not convinced at nearly 3k, but not as bad as a lot are making out.

JR & David Lynch @ 99 prints, by twist65 on Apr 8, 2014 17:15:10 GMT 1, I think everyones going overboard with the negativity due to the high price and the 99prints release 'tactics' - maybe a grudge hangover from the first release. Which to be fair they probably deserve.
I don't love this print and I won't be getting one but certainly don't think it's the worst thing ever put through a litho press. I don't really get the image, but as Kyle says a bit of a back-story, even a strategically placed interview etc might have helped. It might be a grower.
So I kind of hope the release bombs so they change strategy on the next release. I'm not saying they should price things to leave room for flippers (if they did the tone of this thread would be different though!), just cut out all this secretive "I'm not telling you the price/details and am covering up the image with my fancy blue coat" nonsense... Even POW gave us all the details on the Huyuk.

Do most of you know he is an avid painter (and multi media stuff on canvas...like dead animals  on top of being a photographer and obviously a world renowned director with a keen eye for everything visual. This is a match made in heaven really...you all crazy!

This JR/Lynch print is what it is. As annar50 says above, the world would be a boring place if everyone liked the same thing. I wouldn't agree about rather having this print over an unsigned Banksy though!

I really hope these customers actually like the image and not just got impulsive.
2300 euros? Funniest drop of the year, I'm going to be chuckling about this for a few hours at least
Keep it up 99 prints

I suspect they pulled it to save face. And will try to quietly move it through galleries.
