UAA Exclusive "Drop" Thread , by snipt on Sept 7, 2017 20:36:02 GMT 1, I got a ton of really nice messages regarding my Jasper Johns find a while back. Better yet, I'm glad it spurred a lively discussion about the qualities that make a print edition "original." I recently came across a similar find that seems to have gone unnoticed, but I could be wrong. If its well known then I apologize in advance for the hype. Thought I'd have a bit of fun with it and do a UAA exclusive "drop". I will update this thread with the print information and url tomorrow at a random time. Stay tuned and hopefully people will like the print!
Previous finds for those looking for cheap publisher direct prints and posters:
-Jasper Johns: store.ulae.com/
-Cy Twombly & Basquiat Posters: shop.yvon-lambert.com/products/prints
-John Baldessari: www.artandfoundation.com/shop/books/hand-grasping-a-spider
Looking forward to it. Your finds are always amazing. Thank you so much!

No, not at all, I strongly believe that a bit of light hearted fun is most welcome in this forum.

UAA Exclusive "Drop" Thread , by Pattycakes on Sept 8, 2017 16:48:00 GMT 1, I can almost guarantee that these are reproductions. I've been seeing these for the best part of 20 years and there have been far more than 450 out and about over the years. Recently I've been seeing more and more digitally printed copies of these. All I can say is I urge caution.

I agree. Just to good to be true. If those were real they would be priced higher.

Agreed. Hence my emphasis on conducting your own research. IMO you literally cant get better on provenance as its direct from the publisher, and its numbered out of 450 so I don't think its a reproduction. If anyone is familiar with this edition, please chime in!

Well it's a risk. I'm not taking that one. But thanks for sharing, this is definitely an interesting story.

UAA Exclusive "Drop" Thread , by Pattycakes on Sept 8, 2017 17:07:35 GMT 1, The signed ones you see are indeed usually just trimmed down with fake signatures added. I know of someone who paid almost ยฃ20,000 of a set of these and they were fake as they come. That they come from the publisher doesn't really mean a great deal either sadly. If they are right, then I'd say the money is about bang on for them.

I appreciate the feedback and words of caution. In my personal opinion it would be crazy for the original publisher to decide, decades later, to start flogging fakes. They are still active, and to risk their reputation just to make a few bucks on a small handful of relatively cheap posters would not make sense (at least to me). Also, they only have a small handful available, so its not like they are just discovering the whole unsigned run. Everyone is welcome to come to their own conclusion; just thought it was a cool find for Lichtenstein fans.
Have a great weekend UAA!

We really appreciate the share. I normally buy art I actually like, even as investment. This is not my favourite, but that's a personal opinion. I have tons of other priorities and not endless money, otherwise I might chance it.

UAA Exclusive "Drop" Thread , by kristakis on Sept 8, 2017 17:55:04 GMT 1, Received this email from them:
our prints are numbered but not signed. You can find the complete story here:
shop.alinari.it/en/specials/cow_going_abstract-250 It is an original edition made in 1982 with the technique of collotype: shop.alinari.it/en/guides/guide_to_art_prints-127 The firsts 150 copies was numbered and signed, the rest untill 450 was just numbered.
Seems like a great find. Thanks again Christopher!
