Swoon πΊπΈ Contemporary Art β’ Street Art β’ Art For Sale, by Feral Things on Apr 26, 2012 19:39:19 GMT 1, I couldn't see it mentioned anywhere else but apologies if someone has already posted this.
Swoon has a new show opening at Galerie L.J. in Paris next week. The opening is at 6.30pm on 3rd May 2012 and the show runs through to 23 June.
The blurb from their email reads: "We have the pleasure to present a viewing of new works by SWOON, who spent most of her year 2011 building monumental site-specific installations in American museums. No installation this time, but a more traditional, simple presentation of works comprising collages on wood and linocut prints on mylar, inspired by the themes developed in her recent museum installations. A unique occasion for the visitor and collector to appreciate Swoon's work in a clearer setting than usual. Preview list: hello@galerielj.com"

Nope, never managed to get one despite months of trying. Was offered one but thought the price was a little too high, still looking.

Swoon πΊπΈ Contemporary Art β’ Street Art β’ Art For Sale, by Neate Michael on May 3, 2012 11:46:22 GMT 1, Hi, I have a Swoon for sale. The new girlfriend is not a fan of it (although Helena is on the wall) so I would like to swap it or sell it.
It is signed and has a COA from PaperMonster.
Feel free to make me an offer, if you want to pay cash, I'll put it towards a Murakami print.
If you want to offer me something of yours that you are bored of, or will never make the walls, then go ahead.
If any of you need a ref, I am sure there will be several forum members prepared to vouch for me (inc. the happy chappy that got a Banksy poster the other day).

The instructions are to have it on wood to achieve the best results.

Swoon πΊπΈ Contemporary Art β’ Street Art β’ Art For Sale, by georgec7 on May 3, 2012 21:59:09 GMT 1, I bought one off the forum about 6 months ago. There are framing options but you have to be careful - however - its a great print to own. First off - when you pen the tube, it literally springs flat - so no need to worry about paper having a memory as Mylar obviously doesn't .
I suggested to the framer two pieces of glass to sandwich it between but they said you will always get moisture in there, so we settled on a red background acid free art card with a cream surround - will post a pic . In my opinion definitely a great signed Swoon to own !

The backing adds to the print (in the artists opinion). The image above shows it on a brown background. The print is just white and black, so if it was a red background, that brown would be red.

Swoon πΊπΈ Contemporary Art β’ Street Art β’ Art For Sale, by dasium on May 4, 2012 16:37:47 GMT 1, interesting comment re the framing between two sheets of glass and the issue of moisture, I have a large Swoon print (on paper) that needs framing and that had been mentioned to me as the best way to frame them... looks like its back to the drawing board. Its too large to float..... but would be a shame to hide the rawnessof the deckled edges of the piece...

I love this frame job. The brick wall behind the plexi makes it appear as if the piece has been pulled straight off the street.
