Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by soupy on May 22, 2015 1:53:43 GMT 1, The test is whether they sell... the second test is whether they retain that price on the secondary market! It's a very fine line that many artists run... Faile and Kaws, for example. yeah... i guess, ultimately.... you are right. her prints have sold, but it seems like a lot of the fans or collectors are being overshadowed by flippers/speculators. i am a big fan of MH's work for a number of reasons, but the price points on these releases are not something i can wrap my head around. but if it sells, it sells....
as for faile... they do a great job to price higher editions and lower editions accordingly.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by natstan on May 22, 2015 2:50:45 GMT 1, So rather, is this another explanation then 'i would rather be the one making the extra money than let the flippers have it' ? If that is her reasoning, do you think she's being unfair by taking profits that should rightfully be hers?
My point to make more money then is proven by your saying. It remains to be seen how the market will receive it. Of course her fan base is not limited to only UAA, but some voices of disapproval here shows the latest pricing is not in tandem with what SOME collectors of her work want to pay for a print. I guess we can all only find out if the price is right in a year, whether if it will still be available at source.

But there is no chance in hell I would pay 960Β£ for an edition of 99 of that image. I wish print them all and MH the best, but I don't think I would pay more then 400Β£.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by daveart on May 22, 2015 14:18:53 GMT 1, Lets see... Maya Hayuk... what has she done recently that would warrant any respect.. let me think..
Oh YAH !
NYC Bowery Wall - most famous wall in the USA I would imagine. Keith Haring Sharf FAILE - FAIREY - everyone in the scene .. oh and a print release from one of the most respected female photographers in the business -- preceeding banksy's weaker image IMHO ---
Wynnwood Walls - one of the most prominent walls there right next to Retna and across from Swoon and FAIREY -- ever hear of these people ??
Heck she was just chosen to paint the entry lobby to the Facebook headquarters..
She has been creating art for over ten years
Representation from some major galleries world wide
I am not sure exactly what people are thinking to say she isnt a major player - other than Swoon - what female artist is doing more for the Urban Art Scene. Like her work or not MH deserves a bit more respect than I am seeing here.. squabbling over the price of a print? please... she deserves to sell those for whatever she can get. Just because people already have similar prints and are tired of the work she does doesn't mean thousands - literally - thousands of people walking into Wynwood walls every week don't want a chance to buy some of her work in the future.
Just my 2cents. Enjoy...

Small editions have been part of her success so far, so it's an interesting tactic to double the edition size and the price
Also, a few people shelling out big money for some of the Xs doesn't mean it justifies raising price across the bar and that enough people are ready to pay primary prices that are essentially secondary or 'flipper' prices. It's interesting to see how this unfolds, i might be wrong.

I almost burst out laughing at this. Fairey still sells prints at $55 (not pounds) a pop. And I'm sure more people heard of fairey than MH. I also heard david choe did facebook and there are tonnes of unknown artists who have been making great art for more than 3 decades...
Also, this is a forum that predominantly discusses print releases (prices, image, framing etc) - what do you want people to talk about?

But i think that with 1k pounds you can take prints from masters. Not only street artist but contemporary too. the Last gerhard richter release at serpentine is for 1500 pounds ed 500......gerhard richter... anyway i love maya's artworks

The Bowery and the Wynwood Walls are nice and all but they are note exactly the Moma or a high profile gallery like Gagosian's Galleries

It's interesting to see how this unfolds, i might be wrong. def curious to see how this goes. plenty of her prints sit unsold on fleabay at those prices and are constantly relisted. having a few sales around those price points is *A LOT* different than an edition of 99.

I think these are really great pieces very impressed with Maya Hayuk Art. I dont have any in my collection yet I think Im getting a bit slow in my old age and the Artists get popular so fast and the prices get out of reach.

THere are some good ones pre 2008 and i have quite a few. most of the ones since 2010 - yawn - and if you think FAIREY actually did all the work and was involved in every one of them .. hmm.. i would respectfully disagree.
May has dropped - less than 20 print editions and focuses mostly on canvas work and public work. they are very different than FAIREY's approach of cover the world with his agenda.. different doesnt mean better or worse .. it just means different.
i will not be buying this print.. i have purchased Maya's canvasses as i think for the money they are very exceptionally good. ie. a canvas vs an unsigned Banksy. time will tell what is the better investment but i can tell you from an art perspective i would rather have a MH canvas than an unsigned Banksy.. no contest.
you guys flame on about me giving my opinion.. its fine.. but dont panic when someone disagrees with you.

Nobody is flaming you, take it easy, Just find your list of 'accomplishment' lacking. And this is not personal by any means. Since you mentioned fairey in the same breath, I just point it out that he still look at catering to the lowest rung of the ladder despite his fame. As someone also mentioned, for the same money you can get something affiliated to a master's, whose achievement far surpasses those you mentioned. The point is not to talk down her accomplishments, but that there are many other options people can consider spending their money on. But if they think this is worth it, by all means go for it - they will decide the image and her accomplishment to date justifies the cost of the print they are buying.

the "X"s are sideways so more of a cross sorta thing...
it would look really strange hung as a diamond.... especially w/ the drips being the way they are.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by wompa on May 23, 2015 18:49:02 GMT 1, I'm seeing a lot of outspoken naysayers in this thread talking about the lack of diversity in Maya's work.. people say the same thing about Invader and it never fails to make me laugh.
It's OK if her work isn't your thing but it has substance and she works hard.. which is not something I can say for a lot of the generic hypebeasty stencil artists around here.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by coller on May 23, 2015 19:39:15 GMT 1, Seems like most agree she has put in her work; just that the price hike is too much and might bite back.
1,000GBP is more than most artists we talk about on here charge on release, from Fairey to Invader to Swoon, so it comes off strange.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by daveart on May 23, 2015 23:31:30 GMT 1, The price is definitely on the high side no debate. the question is why ? so, my free opinion is as such. I interpret this to mean that MH and her galleries will continue to drop very few editioned pieces. If you love MH work - this should, I think, actually be a good sign. I would as a fan/collector rather have her drop 2 pieces a year that are high quality and highly valued. How many MH do you really need in your house? so, are there 100 people in the world that will pay this.. probably. Will it sell out like a SF drop. No. but i dont think anyone wants it to .. Maybe i am reading way too much into this and it is totally a money grab. or maybe maya is about to destroy her market.. ie. if maya dropped twenty prints in the next 12 months at this price -- (which would still be far behind SF and brainwash and maybe FAILE?) then obviously there are not going to be well received if she does that. One drop every six months of 100 edition to give people that cannot afford 4X that for a canvas.. I dont see the problem with it.
I liked FAIREY's write up about art collecting.. and I dont disagree with him. but Also MH has a very long career behind her already and can hardly be compared to a new artist quickly raising prices.
I also wonder at this point if Fairey is doing his fans any actual service by dropping marginal images so rapidly and therby destroying the value. consider the fight for the next print if he said - from now on 2 drops per year - i will only make prints of really good images. that would actually solidify his fan base and weed out the flipping and the marginal quality images. i am not saying this should or will happen.. just food for thought and contrast to MH.
again, just my 2cents. Enjoy

Take the last ten FAIREY prints - you could probably buy the last ten on Ebay for say average of $150 each. you have invested $1500 . Now go buy MH print at .. not sure the exchange rate - say $1550 or something. now, put them up in your house. and decide what to keep. i know without question what I would do if i did this little test on art appreciation.

Maya Hayuk πΊπΈ Street Art β’ New Release β’ Art For Sale , by South Bound on May 24, 2015 0:12:14 GMT 1, Very X - released 4/14 Multiverse I - released 9/14 Multiverse II - released 12/14 Pilar - released 12/14 Chemtrails released 2014 (exact release date unknown) Unknown Titled print by Print Them All - released 5/15
That's 6 print releases in 1 year and she also released 4 in 2013, she's not exactly the street art version of JD Salinger.
It could be argued that she is reaching the point of over saturation.

Fans love what Fairey does; collectors not as much, but even many of them still do since they can have a huge collection (like that one collector fellow who had the rooms full of Faireys). Those are more fan-collectors than straight collectors.
I don't know anyone who is helped by this kind of price hike aside from the artist, if that. Even the collectors who are thinking their prints are worth 1,000GBP now will likely be hurt by this, as I don't see this selling out. Then instead of a floor, the price serves as ceiling.
And all the above aside - regardless of hype and other artists' prices - I can't imagine many people looking at MH images and saying "Yep, I'd definitely pay 1,000GBP for a lithograph ed. of 100 of that." Maybe that's just me.
