Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by Pawel on Dec 2, 2019 9:39:26 GMT 1, I was a bit surprised they were selling full sets for ยฃ90k without a little haggleย Have you lot got shares in the most overpriced gallery in the world??
Doesn't seem to overpriced compared to this. So it was supposed to be in person only plus tier pricing. It's neither, so apparently something didn't go according to the plan. Unless of course this is not the last tier.
Harland's Phaidon edition sold out at ยฃ3k no problem, same with Jonas Wood.

If this was colour it would be triple the price on the secondary straight away. I much prefer it over the MOCAD and Brooklyn museum prints, this is a nice full image and great little size!

Lets see in Feb 2020 when the market is full of these. I never consider any print value at ยฃ10 but i would rather pay the extra for the Tensionย ย
you rather pay "the extra" ? Mate.... it's 3.3 times the amount , 3k or 10k ,what are you talking about ?

Oh OK. Can't say I'm too surprised. It's tiny and you can say it's a Jonas Wood print only because it's signed. This at least it's a classic Kaws image. Not the best, could use more colors, but easily recognizable.

Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by Terry Fuckwitt on Dec 2, 2019 10:55:54 GMT 1, Why change from in-store purchase only and the planned tiered pricing? Is it just poor sales since initial release, that they've now back tracked on the original terms.

I guess so, but as as posted earlier ยฃ3k is not that expensive compared to Phaidon releases.
I'm coming to a conclusion that the portfolio was simply too cheap. 1k per print more then this? Than I'd this is half they price, it would be flipped to death.

Is it just poor sales since initial release, that they've now back tracked on the original terms. They aren't desirable. The image isn't great, the size isn't great, and the price is high for what it is. This means they didn't sell enough of them and as a result they were forced open sales to the rest of the world to try and move the very large number of leftovers. Tiered pricing makes selling out a whole run very difficult. These prints will sell out eventually, but I don't see them moving at more than ยฃ5,000 on the secondary.

I haven't bought one, but it's strange that they've not sold out yet. Probably not a lot of profit for flippers, but Kaws has more than enough wealthy fans that I thought would have snapped these up by now. I hope they didn't forget to add an inventory number when they put them online๐

Kaws NGV - COMPANIONSHIP IN THE AGE OF LONELINESS, by krazy on Dec 2, 2019 11:19:27 GMT 1, I'd rather a good "scrap" of a portfolio piece for the colour alone, I think others agree. Will I be hanging a single colour screen print of a sketch of a mass produced plastic toy that 749 other people have....Hmmmm let me think...no. Exactly. This release is just scraps for those who have missed out on the KAWS boat and are trying to convince themselves this is a nice image for the price. KAWS has never been known for his sketches. That's not true. Some of his most iconic pieces were sketches. If you've seen his scrap book and some pieces from the 90's they're mostly sketches. This print takes us back to those roots, which IMO is a good thing.
As an example, here's an early original sketch that I had from about 15 or so years ago.

Yeah, I agree on the image, size and pricing, but I still think it's odd they haven't been snapped up. He can shift tons of unlimited toys in a short time for what I consider big money, at least this is signed.

They haven't even been sent out to the buyers yet. They have them for sure i was offered a full set from them for ยฃ90k and any single for ยฃ10k I don't bullshit they have them I'm not doubting that they were selling them, I'm strongly doubting that they had them in hand when they advertised them.

I like the image a lot (have a lot of B/W artworks at home) - for me totally iconic KAWS. Size wise also ok, could be bigger but ok... and Edition Size also OK when comparing to his fans worldwide. At least the only signed/numbered print I can afford from source.
