Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by Invaded 420 on Dec 6, 2014 20:13:51 GMT 1, My complaint isn't about the price. An artist is free to sell their work for whatever they see fit. It's about his conceptual ideas behind what they're supposed to be you mean it's about how you think about what his concept should be. I love his conceptual ideas. And this kit is not, and has never been meant, to be stuck on the walls outside. His first kit, at 75 euros, was not meant to be bought and stuck on the walls. Despite the toungue in cheek packaging that you're interrpreting as gospel. For someone who loves all things GP, ... and whatson et al, i'd love to hear what their conceptual ideas are that you love so much as that is clearly important to you.
totally agree again about the idea of the kit, he's always signed on the packaging which also implies its not sposed to be separated from the kit. The idea is great and as you said tongue in cheek packaging is outstanding. He don't really need to change a thing.

are you thinking of someone else? I don't own anything purchased from GP or MW... but why the need to attack my character for having a different opinion on the IK's?
As other people have said, Invader himself has talked about the kits originally meant to be stuck to walls. So the packing wasn't as tongue and cheek as you're suggesting.. But now he's saying they're meant to be kept in their packaging which I think is kind of ridiculous.
Like I've said, I'm a huge Invader fan, and love the way these kits look and would love to own one, but I think the way he's marketed them and his changing talk of their meaning/concept is a misstep

Zach AP purchased from Black Apple Art. But your point is? Obviously your tastes are better than mine and you're right and I'm wrong. There's no chance we can just have differing opinions?
I don't have time at the moment to sift through his old interviews but next time I do I'll be sure to post one about sticking kits on walls, as well as the more recent one where he said his intention is for the kits to stay in their packaging. These are things he's said - there's no reason for me to be making it up

or, to go back to my original point (and remember, differing opinions, not an attack) how can you pretend to know what invader's intent is? From my experience with him (and other artists) the work they sell to the public is essentially a way to crowd fund to garner enough funds to continue their career. Maybe the kit sales will pay for his next trip to japan where he puts on another invasion. maybe it'll go to his kid's college fund. who cares. But you seem to put some ambiguous moral code on him, like he's violating some ethics of selling art.

knickers in a bunch? we were having a nice conversation on here, then you came on and decided to insult my tastes.
obviously Invader sells prints/originals/stickers/maps/balls etc to fund his travels and career (and to have money to live on) and I think he should continue to do so, and I will continue to be a fan. No where did I ever say anything contradicting that. I love his work, and love that he's able to make a living off his work.
I don't want to repeat myself, so you can go back and reread my original posts if you'd like to see what I'm questioning with these IK's. it's not the cost, it's the concept

Why pay for a package? I could do some packages as well, for no one to open. Oh I love that. God know what s**t I'll put in there. Only the unobeyiant would know.
time to go put up the Christmas lights. maybe someone will have found it by the time I'm done

Only the unobeyiant would know. someone on here posted an interview a few months ago where Invader said the IK's are conceptual pieces and not meant to be opened, or something to that effect. I'm not too good at searching, so hopefully someone can share a link to the interview time to go put up the Christmas lights. maybe someone will have found it by the time I'm done |

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by jadicicco on Dec 6, 2014 21:47:30 GMT 1, Here's an interview from 2011 if it helps.
"People can purchase Invasion Kits and become a part of your Invasions themselves. How does this collaboration appeal to you?
I see it more as a collectable piece to use in your own home."

Who thinks the kit will be released Monday? I don't, I have a feeling it'll be after Christmas now.

Quote from interview- thanks for posting. This interview is from 2011, whereas he's been making kits since 2000. I'm more referring to when he first started, 14 or so years ago, as well as the recent interview when he says they should be kept in their packaging. anyways, I'll stop posting on this thread now... time for the excitement over the drop |

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by Justdave on Dec 6, 2014 22:20:34 GMT 1, To be honest 11 years difference is a long time. I'm sure invader is that busy that he forgets what he says from one time to the next, so probably is inconsistent. I'm sure there is an interview to back up what you say. i understand the argument you make, but I think people are just going to have to agree to disagree because there are so many points to pick at invasion kits. I for one think there should be a COA or something. But I still own 3 as I like them and can't afford an alias.
Let's just move on instead of being at logger heads because of varying opinions.

But in the future I would like to see some editioned alias. Like priced higher than a kit but alot more reasonable than a normal alias which is 1/1

must say, just spent the day wandering around paris...the invader pieces here are just extraordinary, makes london look like his practice city.

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by iamzero on Dec 7, 2014 9:47:36 GMT 1, It puzzles me why anyone want have one of these kits framed and displayed still in the packaging. I now have an image of the same people that do this having their prints framed still with the acid free tissue layer across the front of the image too? .
Also it's a little harsh to suggest that if folk want stuff like this that hey should stop moaning and get a better paid job. Perhaps I don't have as deep pockets as some people on here but I think the kits are overpriced.

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by Invaded 420 on Dec 7, 2014 10:52:37 GMT 1, I don't think its harsh.iamzero. Just common sense. I have a normal job an I save and I buy what I can afford. I get like a grand a month so if i choose to buy a print everymonth i couldnt live. Thats fine with me cos im happy in my job and happy not to have everything thats released. Like most people. Just a select few who must have everything. Then when something super nice comes out and is on the pricey sode they moan its overpriced.If people want to buy everything under the sun then they know how to do it as I dont see artist lowering there prices anytime soon good day too you
Or mr zero, if you still think its harsh let me rephrase it. If I was that gutted about missing out on this due to the price (which i am (well not gutted, you can't have everything) ) i wouldn't moan. I would look at the situation an say if I'm going to buy 500-700 £ pieces of artwork every month I need to get a better paid job. Simple
I don't think its harsh.iamzero. Just common sense. I have a normal job an I save and I buy what I can afford. I get like a grand a month so if i choose to buy a print everymonth i couldnt live. Thats fine with me cos im happy in my job and happy not to have everything thats released. Like most people. Just a select few who must have everything. Then when something super nice comes out and is on the pricey sode they moan its overpriced.If people want to buy everything under the sun then they know how to do it as I dont see artist lowering there prices anytime soon good day too you Or mr zero, if you still think its harsh let me rephrase it. If I was that gutted about missing out on this due to the price (which i am (well not gutted, you can't have everything) ) i wouldn't moan.

Faced facts that ik15 would be my last when I took the plunge but that's the way it is. Spot on price point on these. Should be priced alot higher than prints but lower than originals. Bang on

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by iamzero on Dec 7, 2014 12:21:14 GMT 1, I kinda understand your point about the job thing but not round in circles dude. I'm simply looking at the amount of skill and physical hours that go into producing a screen print for less than half the price of an invasion kit. It takes time and effort but putting a bunch of tiles together is something that kids do at play school everyday. Now I know that really is over doing it I know but surely there is a difference between the two?
Now that could sound like I'm skating the kits which I'm not at all as I think they look great but I just don't get the pricing structure at all and that's why I don't buy them.

Invader • Invasion Kits IK, by Justdave on Dec 7, 2014 12:54:39 GMT 1, You are always gonna get people moaning about price. If invader charged £300 for an invasion kit, then they would all be on eBay within 5 mins and everyone would be moaning about that. So invader charged market value which will deter flippers and mean true fans will get them. Do you want to line flippers pockets, or the money go to supporting the artist? Never going to please everyone.
For the record I probably won't be going for this as I can't afford it.
