Julian Opie ๐ฌ๐ง Statuette โข Pop Art Portrait โข Lenticular , by Momo on Jun 13, 2021 0:10:18 GMT 1, Somehow I have now got two copies of this...and they are a bit different. Number one I bought from a member here who sold it framed. I have just hung it and not unframed it. I have no reason to doubt his legitimacy, he was selling several various things at the time, including another Opie. He told me he bought it several years previously (in the same frame) from somebody whose place he went to that had a load of Opies on the walls. It is distinctly red. Number two I recently bought elsewhere from somebody at a very good price indeed, he was worried that it was damaged and had reduced the price a lot. The damage to the edges is very minimal and would easily be framed out. It is distinctly more orange, still red if viewed on its own, but side by side this one is orangy-red I'm giving it to my daughter as a new flat moving in gift. I can't help but wonder if one is legit and the other fake...but if so then which one?! (Both seem to have very deep black on the black bits) Any thoughts or advice??
the orange one may have just been exposed to UV over a period of time and lightly bleached??

That certainly fits with the damage, negligible damage though it is.

I donโt know whether to call mine orange or red. I guess it could be called either. If itโs not too much of a bother, post up side by side pics of the two. Iโm curious to see the difference. |

Looks good. The Guardian reviewer didn't rate it much, so it'll probably be pretty decent.

Having seen in the flesh, the deer is impressive, the rest is OK. Made of a hard foam like material. Would have been nice if they had been metal. Much nicer is the set of three plates that are available from the museum shop - both online and offline. www.julianopie.com/shop/multiples/animal-statuettes  
Nice statuettesโฆ but 1.120ยฃ for a 3D printing seems โa bitโ high to meโฆ

I see. Last summer I went to his exhibition in Lisbon (recommended by a good person in here, I didnโt know it was there) and I could buy a zipper postcard for about 50โฌ (Plus a book). It has been released for the Oslo exhibition, if I remember good, but still hadnโt sold out.
Something beautiful, affordable and nice enough to be on the shelves of my living room. I think thatโs the kind of releases that should be in the exhibition gift shop

Not sure about the animals but a set of Melbourne statues hammered at ยฃ3000 plus 34%fees last week ( over ยฃ4K to buyer) so definitely prices are rising for Opie figures so canโt blame them for taking whatโs rightfully theirs.

Julian Opie ๐ฌ๐ง Statuette โข Pop Art Portrait โข Lenticular , by The Jokers Puppet on Jun 28, 2021 14:51:45 GMT 1, There is a Melbourne statuette set at Rosebery's auction (7 July) current price ยฃ700 for anyone looking for a set. Not sure if Rosebery is as well known as some auction houses but seem to be on the mailing list.
I don't have any pictures of the Opie exhibition as I don't tend to take them (bit like going on safari and being surrounded by people with lenses longer than their arms and not enjoying being in the moment. Always argue that one with the wife who often likes to compete with her Samsung phone). Its a pretty small exhibition so I would not suggest a special trip unless you wish to make an afternoon of it. Nice lunch at Soane's kitchen next door, view what was John Soane's country retreat (he was mates with JW Turner and a big art collector - recommend visiting Soanes Museum and the Hogarth collection if you have not done so) and the Opie exhibition which is essentially in 2 rooms.

Don't see anything that reminds me of a French village. The architecture is neither charming nor modern; it just reminds me of a badly rendered 3D environment from a computer game of the 1990s.
like the statue, thanks for sharing

cristearoberts.com/exhibitions/230-julian-opie/
A great display of his more recent work, and also items previously available.
Would like to share some pictures -
There is also a series of wood cut prints which are available which support the exhibition. These are really quite something, I was aware of them via the Cristea Roberts newsletter, but would certainly recommend them, they are really lovely -
Mr Opie was in attendance which was nice to see, actually had a really nice chat with him, a really nice fella. He actually took the Mickey out of my prehistoric camera, so apologies for the quality of them above.
Would certainly recommend a visit.
