Jean-Michel Basquiat ๐บ๐ธ Brooklyn, New York โข Graffiti Art , by Poster Bob on Oct 14, 2015 21:50:41 GMT 1, You believed it for a second, didn't you? That's how full of shit these assholes are. I have found an auction result for "Head" at around ยฃ26k and they made 85 of those prints. Given that, we'll see how absurdly they price this.
Great, $50k for the first print sold. Each additional print sold increases the price by $10k. Bunch of p*icks. Surely not?!

Apparently screenprinted and limited in production as they won't be selling or producing them Beyond the end of this year.

It's ridiculous! But if someone's going to pay it they're going to try it. I hope no one does.

As a side note, I think they should sell this as a poster rather than a fine art print. If the artist didn't have anything to do with the production, it's kind of pointless.

Edit : just saw this is going to be over 2M wide, that is going to look fucking fantastic !!! But still 50k (allegedly)โฆsigh

Jean-Michel Basquiat ๐บ๐ธ Brooklyn, New York โข Graffiti Art , by daveart on Oct 19, 2015 17:12:35 GMT 1, i was curious about the timing of this print release so did a little digging.
www.dnainfo.com/new-york/20130905/boerum-hill/jean-michel-basquiats-dad-leaves-behind-sons-art-tax-problem
apparently the father passed two years back.. and now the sisters are in charge of much of the estate. Surely the new print and other licensing is driven by the sisters at this point. not saying that is good or bad.. but... well.. i'll not comment more at this time
