Swoon ๐บ๐ธ Contemporary Art โข Street Art โข Art For Sale, by numusic on Dec 9, 2007 21:10:39 GMT 1, looks a bit A-Level art to me, she can do so much more but everyones rushing to make a quick buck off her. IMO she should stop with all this print making. what are you talking about? her "originals" are still prints, just becasue they are not huge editions doesn't make them any different. Swoon is a printmaker, thats what she is , end of story.
Exactly, which is why she maybe shouldn't be using other print houses to make and distribute her stuff.

They're just all a little "meh" Not many skulls, bombs, guns, wings, hard to ignore obvious political statments etc..... I like them because they are nice, quite raw pieces. No great amount of thought needed to appreciate them, no need to analyse, different and easily identifiable. |

From talking to someone at BRP about her prints with them apparently she had a huge input into determining how the prints would be made. Given how serious she is about her work I'm pretty sure that all the prints released had her seal of approval.
I thought you were keen on democratising the ownership of art nu? By her releasing these prints she gives lots of people the chance to own her work for a reasonable sum. You don't have to buy all of them if you don't want to.
I would personally prefer an artist to release a few prints every year in small editions than 1 or 2 prints in huge editions.

For so long she released very little in the form of editions.
Now she has print incontinence.
imo (of course)

yeah, maybe I agree, not sure.. I guess It's difficult for me to be objective as I own a few originals... as for the democratisation of the ownership of art.. absolutely.. but does every single artist have to churn out prints ? Swoon could knock off 250 original prints in an afternoon..

Your view is just as valid as mine buffin. A lot of people don't get swoon. Have you seen any of her work in the flesh? If not you should.

They are prints and it seems that the cardboard edition is going to be $800 each. Couldn't make out the other price.
