Kaws • Man’s Best Friend • 10 Print Set, by charliec2701 on Jul 7, 2020 20:52:08 GMT 1, It’s the pricing now that’s shafted across the board. 8k for a print, and it’s like there doing us a favour. I would rather have the bun fight and not get one at £500. Prints used to be for the collectors who couldn’t afford originals. Now in a lot of cases collectors can’t afford the prints. He’s a wanker.
What do you really think ??

Just download a picture, print it out yourself for pennies, and paste it on a wall if you really like his work. Just because someone's successful doesn't mean that they deserve to be hated, right?

Kaws • Man’s Best Friend • 10 Print Set, by acaipride on Jul 7, 2020 21:04:19 GMT 1, Good to see he's releasing more prints, but seriously, why so expensive? A print release is a nod to people who can't afford his canvases, but most people will struggle to afford $8,000. Why not make them $500 like Banksy would and let fans have a chance at owning one for their walls? Sure, flippers will flip, but at least there's a chance. I like Kaws' work but his greed gets in the way a bit And let the peasants eat away at his 5.25 million profit. . I think not. At the end of the day. This is a business. That building next door to his studio wasn’t cheap.
spoken like a true flip.

Hirst puts them all to shame. Either do it properly, or don't do it at all. Why do artists owe charities anything? It's a business. He's doing his job and getting paid for it. Who cares
if we were not in a knee deep pandemic with leaks everywhere and raining on top with thunder visible in the distance, i would agree with nobo, but these are the times.

Up there with his worst worm/sperm images. Now you mentioned it maybe this:

I wonder how he came up with the pricing 🤪😀

I really don’t get how he manages to charge these prices for the same recycled images, which I’d be embarrassed to hang in my 3 year old daughters room. Fair play to him, you keep buying this shit and he’ll keep churning it out. Probably buy himself a Van Gogh soon.

Also since he just keep pumping them out don't be sad not getting one, I assume he is just dropping more in less than a month. I'm sure we all get our KAWSy, so no FOMO here

But... i still dont see if its signed and numbered. On the mockup nor on his IG post we dont see any signature. People get mad so i bet he will sign it, maybe at the back even if he didnt plan it at the begining.
Anyway if its unsigned but numbered only i go with NGV which is almost same size edition. Signature means much.
