And during 10 minutes website said "your order cannot be shipped to the selected address". And when the book became sold out my address is working again. What a miracle! Same case with the last Kaws signed book release. That's not coincidence.
I tried to contact them with a screenshot and their unique answer is "sorry the book is sold out".

Lroy, it's for a Museum show in Pittsburgh, at the Warhol museum, which is how they are using the images. The Warhol foundation sold the rights to Artestar years ago (same as Haring, Basquiat etc, likely most uniqlo dead artist collabs).
If you want to look into the Warhol foundation a little, there is a book about it, 'Warhol after Warhol' worth reading. It doesn't exactly paint them in a good light for keeping his reputation intact.

I know little about Russell Herron or his process.
Regarding these cardboard portraits, is it correct to assume they are drawings of actual bits of cardboard that were initially cut, torn and scribbled on by the artist himself?
If so, it would be interesting to hear whether Herron always retains the original cardboard pieces for himself, or if any of them have ever been sold to accompany and complement their corresponding drawings.

Thank you for the helpful confirmation.
Somewhat of a shame, in my view.
I do respect the rigour and purity of concept (similar to, "Either the NFT or the original. You can choose one or the other, but not both.").
At the same time, no doubt many of Herron's collectors would have loved the opportunity to hang side-by-side (a) an original cardboard piece, along with (b) its corresponding drawing.

Interesting point that Met, hadn't previously considered the 'original' that the drawing based on?
That said, enjoy how each drawing differs, and 'unique' as such, hopefully this will be illustrated in the book of all the portraits.
You also have the option to 'name' each portrait if you buy one of them, so for me enhances the personalization?
I'm a bit fan of these pieces, and own a couple, always fascinated by the detail, and the skill involved, real items of interest.
Thatโs correct that these are drawings of actual bits of cardboard he has created. However, the original cardboard pieces are destroyed and none are available with the drawings. He had sold some cardboard heads separately, but these were never used for drawings. Thank you for the helpful confirmation. Somewhat of a shame, in my view. I do respect the rigour and purity of concept (similar to, "Either the NFT or the original. You can choose one or the other, but not both."). At the same time, no doubt many of He rron's collectors would have loved the opportunity to hang side-by-side (a) an original cardboard piece, along with (b) its corresponding drawing.
