Ai Weiwei Bombs, by hupster on Sept 2, 2021 16:29:49 GMT 1, That is a bold statement 🤣 Especially considering it's a poster, not a print. I remember people saying that about a certain tesco bomb for a fiver by banksy..... wonder what the price of one of those would be if signed.......

Ai WeiWei is Banksy? What? Who said that? I was saying posters can be worth a lot of money as well as screen prints.

Ai Weiwei is one of the most consequential artists alive. But he’s not a crowd pleaser.

I can’t see any sales of the unsigned on eBay so I guess you have to like the image as it’s not a flipper.

This is not an easy one, I agree - I have the unsigned one in a folder since I can’t get around to put it out. But there are several brilliant pieces that are very cheap and remarkable tbh. The £100 was cheap and brilliant, and if that is too conceptual for you the Odyssey print was also super cheap (and still kind of is I think - 500?), and it is remarkable (yet hard). And for a few thousand each (2-3k I think in private sales) the paper cuts are actually brilliant in the flesh (citizen investigation, map of China and NYC in particular - and the all set is actually a full retrospective on his lifetime work that one could build one piece at the time). And if you can make it to 5k… etc That is, there is actually a broad range of brilliant works for different budgets.

Ai Weiwei Bombs, by richmister on Sept 2, 2021 23:06:43 GMT 1, I was lucky enough to get an artist’s hand at source and I feel lucky to get this too. He is such an influential and powerful artist and to get the opportunity to buy a signed edition of 200 at this price is a great opportunity for fans without deep pockets. I can live with the fact it is a poster and I do think this has a strong message. It will be going on the wall.

I have this print collected flat since purchase; based in NYC - Just don’t have the wall space for it.
- Would sell it if anyone is interested in making a reasonable offer...
It’s absolutely massive and the framing quotes I got (to my minimum specifications) were just off the charts.
That is very tasteful framing Ravnur 2020

Ai Weiwei Bombs, by Bangksy on Sept 3, 2021 1:25:09 GMT 1, If you bought this to flip for double (or more) inside of a year, I think you're going to be disappointed because there will likely be a gangbang of these on Ebay for a while since many people seem to have the same idea. A couple years down the line may be a different story though.

Ai Weiwei Bombs, by Horatio Nelson on Apr 13, 2022 17:54:02 GMT 1, Hi all.
I bought this directly from source a while back, but it won’t make the wall. I have got too much up and too many new things on the way, so I am happy to sell for £400 (below cost at £500) if anyone is interested.

Ai Weiwei Bombs, by Daniel Silk on Jun 15, 2022 20:16:22 GMT 1, Don't you think Ai Weiwei art can be a bit random? I think these Bomb pieces are really good! Very strong images and nicely done, but does he fall down as an artist when you have absolutely no idea what his next piece might look like? In that a collector might want to continually buy a particular artists work, but then if it's not consistent or at least following any kind of path of development? Discuss ☺️
