KAWS - Blankets Studio Voltaire, by sfnyc on Jan 22, 2020 16:13:27 GMT 1, The blue version could be seen as having a climate change message
No need to be looking for a deep message here, this is by Kaws after all! It's hype and pretty that's about all.

houseofvoltaire.org/collections/artists-blankets/products/kaws-2
Looks like they've got a few left for anyone interested!

Paid artwork? Did complete a few transaction with paddle 8...seems no issue. Just that once thereโs a seller who taking the longest period to ship the item but was follow up aggressively by paddle8

Just that once thereโs a seller who taking the longest period to ship the item but was follow up aggressively by paddle8 I haven't bought or sold through Paddle8 for a few years, certainly not since their liquidity issues, but it used to be the case they just sent handlers to collect the artwork and they'd have it packed and shipped on. Was probably one of the easiest auction houses I've dealt with in terms of logistics. |

Was probably one of the easiest auction houses I've dealt with in terms of logistics. Agreed, not having to worry about getting the piece to the auction house and covering expenses was such a selling point. Someone just picked up and the deal was done. Was looking forward to using them again but the negative stories kept creeping up in numbers. |

My feeling is itโs worth it as Artnet has a much more mature and established collector base, so yea any hit on the listing fee will be offset by the better result that comes with getting in front of this audience.

Haha well I didn't read it on their website...the internet is a big place. However, yes I should have gone and read through their website prior to asking a quick question here. |

How heavy is the frame? did you use glass or acrylic. I need to frame something large so wondering if the weight of the frame is an issue on my rubbish walls.
