Not the anxious series as these are his most popular series. That said, offering a relatively small editioned etching from this most popular series for ยฃ2k is hardly insulting. You could probably spend more on a Connor Bros print. Take your pick.

Personnally it's an iconic Rashid signature work and the cheapest you'll get so far ... but it's all about taste and understand people not sensible to his work. Would love this one and not a plate  I love his work, but know that this is a very bad example of his work. Like most popular artists, their prints just offer meager crumbs to those who can't afford and/or don't have access to their primary market. It's insulting really, but people still clamor for anything if the recent auction history is hot, so quality is disregarded. If people staved off buying, perhaps the offerings would improve.

Because it's tiny and the figures are too spaced out. I think this series works best to convey the anxiety and torment, when it's large scale and the figures are all tightly packed together, trapped.

When people say emerging or original works from new artists.. why not state the artists? Back up what you are saying.
I would say too many open editions, time releases and over priced prints for new artists really hurt the print market as well as the current economy / wars. These things will change and some of the nicer prints will do well again. It might take awhile tho.
Same members dog every decent cheap release from any blue chip artists. We are not all billionaires who can afford the nicer larger pieces or people who have the connections to artists that will actually make it. Let's face it Gagosian has a contact list of billionaires that most of aren't on - if you are congrats. These galleries will make or break and artist not some member on this forum. Stating the obvious about how art is being sold and bought isn't going to change any of this. You can do A LOT worse investing $2500 in art today than a Rashid Johnson print with his most popular images - even if it's tiny.

It's a small, cheap etching that he produced for the lower end of the market. It's good he produced it as an etching rather than a quick digital artwork. If you look what else ยฃ2k buys you it's a good little buy. No doubt 50% of the edition will end up on the secondary market as it ticks all the flipper boxes.
