Ai Wei Wei charity auction on ebay, by Lord Lucas Roham on Oct 17, 2017 11:17:44 GMT 1, Edition of 1000, unsigned, unnumbered and an offset. Not one for the flippers but a decent $100 poster.
These will sit for days.

Ai Wei Wei charity auction on ebay, by Lord Lucas Roham on Oct 17, 2017 11:47:05 GMT 1, The middle finger sculpture is formulaic pish and has been done 1000 times before (Recently by David Shrigley), the poster is meh and no one would give a f*ck about it if it was attributed to someone other than Ai Weiwei.
That's my two cents.

Ai Wei Wei charity auction on ebay, by Express Post on Oct 17, 2017 12:22:50 GMT 1, It's iconography and all artists do something that everyone can identify typically as their work.
It's something that the artists will always keep revisiting.
The middle finger is Ai Weiwei's, and there are plenty of other examples too.
Dali has ants; Yayoi Kusama has pumpkins; Murakami has those smiley flower heads; Yoshitomo Nara has the little girls with big eyes; Koons has balloon animals; Nick Walker has the vandal....
It is what it is.

I've just got email from newarteditions that they are not able to confirm that these are indeed editions of 1000. Interesting what does "newarteditions" have to do with the release? public art fund confirmed edition of 1,000 and it has been written in the advertising/emails. |

Interesting what does "newarteditions" have to do with the release? public art fund confirmed edition of 1,000 and it has been written in the advertising/emails. Probably since the description on eBay makes no mention of the edition size, with the date range, it makes sense that it'll be a timed edition, which would make these highly overpriced. |

Public Art Fund wrote to me this:
"The sale will go live at 12PM EST on Tuesday, October 17th. Each edition is currently being released in a group of 1000 exclusively to eBay"
