ROBERT LONGO | CHARCOAL PORTFOLIO, by Riotcops on Jul 26, 2018 16:24:28 GMT 1, Hey All,
I know Longo isn't a street artist but I have seen some appreciation for him on the threads here and figured I'd give everyone a chance to grab these prints if they like them. I fought for a long time to get 'Riot Cops' in this portfolio which is one of my favourite pieces of his based on the Ferguson Riots in 2014. I have the opportunity to upgrade to one of his larger Tigers so I'm selling to take the next step.
Untitled (Capitol Detail) - 2013 / 2017
Untitled (Riot Cops) - 2016 / 2017 Untitled (Throne Room) - 2015-2016 / 2017 Untitled (Bucephalus) - 2015 / 2017 Medium: 4 Ditone Prints on Hahnemühle Photo Rag Ultra Smooth 305g. Size each: 24" x 22'' - 56 cm x 61 cm (2 x upright format, 2 x horizontal format) Edition: 30 + 10 AP Condition: unframed, mint condition Each print signed and numbered recto '1/30'
Asking price is $4000USD per print, or $14,000 for the set. Won't break up the set unless a minimum of 2 are sold.
Let me know if you'd like any more details or would like to discuss further.
Cheers,
Shawn

ROBERT LONGO | CHARCOAL PORTFOLIO, by moron on Jul 27, 2018 9:23:18 GMT 1, Longo is a master, technical genius with his use of charcoal and ink. I cannot see anyone going wrong with these.
Longo wave pictures. Did Fairey get his idea for wave prints from seeing Longos?

Shame about having to let these Robert Longo prints go — especially since you fought so long to secure one of them. As collectors, I suppose we sometimes have to make painful sacrifices.
A point to note is that, given the set has been broken up, options might be limited if you're hoping to consign with a top-tier auction house.

It may also be worth recalibrating your pricing expectations.
Christie's sold a set of these Longo prints on 26 July 2018. By sheer coincidence, that's the date of your original post. And those ones were also numbered 1/30.
They went for £6,000 (including buyer's premium) for the complete set of four:

Another recent sale took place at Phillips, on 7 June 2018. The price was £6,250 (including buyer's premium) for the complete set of four prints — and therefore comparable with the Christie's result:

I'll explain. Not disputing I bought them from Christies, and I wasn't lying I fought for a long time to get Riot Cops. That was the main reason for the purchase. Took me a couple months with numerous gallery discussions - in the end they were all to high (approx double what I paid). I figured the price I got at auction, which was my max, was a fair price for the lot so I jumped at it. Simultaneously, while in discussions for Riot Cops I was in talks about a big Tiger piece with a gallery who talked about potentially having one they could sell. They emailed the night before the auction they had a client with one but I only read it after winning the auction. I panicked because I needed the money for the Tiger. Tried to get out of the Christies purchase, which obviously wasn't happening and tried to offload these fast as possible (both here and another site) to secure the Tiger ASAP even though I still wanted Riot Cops. In hindsight prolly priced them higher then I should have, but figured I'd be negotiated down. In the end, these didn't sell and the Tiger is now gone. So whats done is done, I took Riot Cops and framed it up as I originally intended, and I'm happy with it - gifted the horse, and came back on here to post the other 2. C'est La Vie.
