REDUCED Artists on POW, by Daniel Silk on Oct 14, 2017 1:06:16 GMT 1, www.picturesonwalls.com/Home.asp
I wonder what all the Artists think who have had their Art drastically reduced in price in order the encourage it to sell?

I think even with big reductions in price I can't see many of these selling before the closure.

REDUCED Artists on POW, by moron on Oct 15, 2017 13:48:10 GMT 1, I think the reduced prints are bargains. Some under fifty quid and compared to some of the overhyped over priced prints being released for hundreds The low priced prints on POW will stand the test of time.
The prints are not very good, it's interesting that anything low priced is considered not very good. yet anything hyped up and expensive considered good.
I'd rather have the low price dprints on my wall than a stick figure.

Eric the dog is a total legend, I'm amazed all the hype is about Blus headquarters print and yet Ericas work is sitting there unsold. I agree. His screenprints on POW have a slightly Banksy look. Uncluttered. The monkeys are classic. www.ericailcane.org/ |

Just a few highlights....the mural on the Facade of the Tate Modern (which is the image of the Headquarters print); his mural that was buffed out at the MOCA LA Art of the Streest exhibit; the countless number of amazing political murals he has produced around the world; the numerous videos of his stop action murals that have had millions of views; also, the rumor that Blu is no longer producing any more prints makes the existing prints that much more desirable, given that he hasn't flooded the market with a huge number of prints to begin with.
Eric the Dog has some beautiful prints and beautiful murals, but I would not put him in the same league as Blu.

Agree to disagree with you on that, I consider both to be fantastic mural painters in their own right and style. There's a reason they paint a lot together.
But anyway, my point is that there are some lovely pieces by Erica available that shouldn't be.

There is so little circulation of Blu prints nowadays, it's difficult to say what they achieve because mostly sold private. Sure thing is, their monetary value is far below what they are worth to my eyes.

REDUCED Artists on POW, by Happy Shopper on Oct 18, 2017 11:15:27 GMT 1, A lot of work went into those Bast Calling Card prints... they're all hand finished and gorgeous, just a big edition (for him).
I wonder if they'll suddenly drop in price, or be returned to Bast, or what!?

I'm in the market for a bast, and have been debating buying one of these for ages, as I'm sure they'll look great in the flesh.
I won't buy, they'll sell out and I'll kick myself I'm sure.

I wouldn't be surprised if a few get bundled up and reduced again. Still, I have 3 of the prints that have sat unsold for years and I'm happy with them all! The frames cost more than the prints but hey ho
