Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by Mattmoo08 on Nov 14, 2019 14:04:52 GMT 1, Print Information Hello everyone.
This year's been wild. I started with Mausoleum of the giants, a ephemeral sculpture show in Sheffield where i took over an abandoned factory in the middle of winter and spent four months working myself to death. The show had a never ending queue every day and over 12 thousand visitors through the doors in the few weeks we were open.
After the show i made the decision to focus on engraving work instead of traveling painting murals. I was asked by KBR (Royal library of Belgium to collaborate with them on their Bruegel in black and white show. The show commemorates the 450 year anniversary of the renaissance master Pieter Bruegel by showing his complete print work. My work has always been strongly inspired by this golden era of printmaking so the collaboration was a perfect fit for me.
I was asked to engrave a copper plate inspired by Bruegel using the same techniques he would have used to make his print in 1558. My copper plate took three months of painstaking work to engrave with a Burin. The completed copper plate and the print is on show in Brussels until the 16th of February 2020. This print is an important milestone for me as i've worked really hard to hone my skills as an engraver over the past few years. It's by far the most richly detailed work i've made so far and marks the beginning of a body of work i'm very excited to share with everyone.
The print is called 'Luxuria' and the edition size is 350. Hand printed on mould made Fabriano Rosaspina 280gsm paper. The plate size is 29.5cm wide by 22cm high. The border size varies slightly between prints but all have roughly 2cm beyond the plate mark. Each print is hand made by myself in my garden shed so expect small differences between prints.
For anyone visiting the show in Brussels you can buy the print direct from the library shop as this release is split between there and our online release.
Have a good holiday everyone. I'll be straight back in the new year with lots more news about books prints and shows i have in the works.
Thanks as ever for the interest in my work. Your support keeps me company in the long hours i spend at the drawing table. My allocation will go on sale this Friday, November 15th at 5pm GMT/12 PM EST in the online shop.
Cheerio.

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by Adam The Collector on Nov 14, 2019 21:14:12 GMT 1, I have never purchased a work from Phlegm period let alone at release... how quickly do you expect these to sell out? Is it something I have to be at the computer at release time or should I have a day or two?

Beautiful print, cheap price and he has a big following. Although it's a big edition, I would say it will probably sell fast.

Previous prints have sold in the blink of an eye, this is a larger editon but I think a portion has gone to the museum. Id be sat ready if you don't want to miss out.

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by jettad on Nov 14, 2019 22:30:12 GMT 1, So hoping there isn't the demand for this as unfortunately I have a shoot scheduled at 9, so won't be able to be in front of a computer.

I am not hoping for a lack of demand just want to be prepared if I need to make sure I am sitting at the computer with the CC ready!

Phlegm monumental new etching on the horizon!, by cmatthews11 on Nov 15, 2019 1:12:49 GMT 1, Was able to grab "Fight or Flight" and "Tributary" direct from Phlegm's release without too much stress, but thinking this will be rather difficult. Hoping to not have to pay secondary prices this time around like every other Phlegm print.

This edition is his largest yet but its a very detailed very intricate work. Good luck to all trying for one.
