Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by Charlie Bronson on Feb 27, 2021 20:29:28 GMT 1, You're obviously a very clever man making your big gains with your art portfolio which includes multiple Banksy's and lots of other artists. Question is why are you quibbling dropping a measly £3k on this release? It bothers me that it may not appreciate in value nor will it pay dividends. Still a fair whack when although I like the art that money could be put to work. I mentioned previously I buy to diversify but still only pieces that I kinda like.
With so many flash in the pan artists who are revered one day and tossed out the next, a la Lucien Smith, I could never imagine buying art based on speculative future earnings as opposed to what I like. Doing so would also entail having shitty art on the walls. I guess there’s a big difference between why you and I collect, and that’s perfectly okay. Out of curiosity, what market research techniques and resources do you use to invest? I buy what I like, and that’s seems to have worked for the most part of the past 20+ years of art buying.
On a side note, Hirst is definitely not a flash in the pan artist, so my logic doesn’t apply here. Why not just buy it and hang it in your kid’s room? It’s definitely a kid’s room friendly piece. In 10 years I’m sure it’ll be worth more than what you pay now.

Anyone in the states know the shipping costs to the USA - and any import fees to be paid?
Cheers

Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by orchid on Feb 27, 2021 21:28:57 GMT 1, You shouldn’t be buying art with this mindset... Thanks for the well thought out response aka you have no idea. If that was the case I wouldn’t have the gains on the banksy’s, Stiks, Pejacs, Hirst’s, Emin’s, Blake’s, I already own
Given your collection, it's intriguing you're worrying about a $3000 piece, and you're using your kids education money to gamble on it. So I call BS

I think you're clueless or talking crap, but at least that's one fewer edition sold

This. Given his exquisite collection he should be fine taking a massive gamble on a cheap Hirst. So i retract my initial comment and now advise to go for it. Buy as many as you can. Use fake names. Go go t Go.

Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by Richy Rich on Feb 28, 2021 0:21:15 GMT 1, I’ve got one of the Richter P19’s and one of the small charity Hirst prints and I’d have to say I’ve been fairly disappointed by the dibond technique. Maybe it depends on the original image but both of mine feel flat, a bit subdued and overly glossy.

for reference, An example of one of the H’s framed with museum glass. This sits just across from a west facing window but the museum glass also really cuts out all of the glare from the gloss finish on the dibond. If I were to get one of these new ones I would likely do the same. (Even though the frame will cost close to the print itself) Also from those saying that these look flat and lifeless I have to respectfully disagree. Click and zoom in on the high res photo and you can really see the depth of the paint. When people have come over (back in the day) they often don’t realize it’s not a real painting.
Superb. This pic just cost me money and completely changed my view of “frame or not to frame” these Henis.

Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by Earl Grey 2nd on Feb 28, 2021 1:20:32 GMT 1, Is it me, or can I just say I like them. I feel like a lot of us are getting too wound up about future value...which is really flipping if we're honest. a number of members on here hate the fact it's a timed edition, because again it's not about the art, it's able value. I think Heni is being smart with the vault and I agree its a way for investors and consortiums to buy and sell with little risk - but why are we surprised.
Im lucky to own a number Hirst editions from Heni on diabond and I think were all getting too worried about the quality and value and not if you just like them. The quality is always good. They will look great. You cant really go wrong with hirst even though his market is flat, and if you love the pieces, just bloody buy them. If you dont then move on.
Dont buy purely as an investment as who knows where his market will be in a few years - you're better off putting money in to Hockney etc. Just buy art primarily because you love it, not for an investment.

definitely over glossy, quite annoying, especially reflections piss me off, hard to see unless full on straight on
i don't understand why they are like this, no need

Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by Charlie Bronson on Feb 28, 2021 4:14:59 GMT 1, Collectively there will be thousands of these printed and won't be worth much more when they flood ebay. I doubt any one print will be worth more based on numbers printed. Is anyone planning on hanging these on the wall? (I am)
I am. Bought #4, Politeness. Planning on framing in a 2” side thick, 1/2” face thick, white frame, no glass with a 3/16” float.

It’s very interesting you say the museum glass has cut out the glare and reflection of the dibond and Perspex of the print. I never thought of that. The cost is prohibitive though.

Presumably any anti-reflective glass would do the trick - doesn’t need to be fully Museum grade

Damien Hirst, The Virtues H9, by jimmyjam on Feb 28, 2021 14:48:53 GMT 1, Have you seen the video Hirst recently posted on his IG stories with the actual prints? Now I’m not sure which one is the best. These might look much different in person. You might want to check out the videos before deciding. Some look much better in person than online. To me now Honor and Control look the nicest.

Absolutely beautiful and the best advert for a Heni edition I've ever seen. Without being vulgar, how much was the framing?

That looks amazing buddy. Superb. I too have the Cannizaro and have noticed that the reflection and glare that comes off isn’t that noticeable? When I contemplated framing I was initially thinking of a simple tray frame but after seeing your pristine number it looks amazing with glass. I must say though that compared to other supposedly similar Heni releases it is nothing like the glare and reflection that comes off the Richter P19’s I’ve got. Those are an absolute nightmare. If anyone has framed a P19 in full museum I’d love to see a full straight on photo to see what difference if any the glass has made ??
Decisions decisions decisions ..... and they all cost money !!

I'm sure the early Heni dibonds were made in London including the H4. It now seems like they are using a German company, which probably explains the difference in glare. I suppose it might also explain the recent large output in all these dibonds the last year.

This looks great, and is definitely helping me with my decision. I imagine the dibond is fairly heavily. Is there hardware attached the back of the frame? How difficult was it to mount this in the frame?

This sits just across from a west facing window but the museum glass also really cuts out all of the glare from the gloss finish on the dibond. If I were to get one of these new ones I would likely do the same. (Even though the frame will cost close to the print itself) Also from those saying that these look flat and lifeless I have to respectfully disagree. Click and zoom in on the high res photo and you can really see the depth of the paint. When people have come over (back in the day) they often don’t realize it’s not a real painting. This looks great, and is definitely helping me with my decision. I imagine the dibond is fairly heavily. Is there hardware attached the back of the frame? How difficult was it to mount this in the frame?

But most people’s framed prints also look like that behind glass (unless you use more expensive non reflective glass of course)

These ones don't have the glass on them, which actually cuts down on the glare. It's unique to the open editions from what I've seen.

They all look the same to me, open edition, ltd edition, same technique
