Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by Roman Emperor on Jun 14, 2018 13:25:59 GMT 1, A couple of weeks ago @museumshop_onsundays on their Instagram page announced that they will sell a limited number of sheets of the poster, which was published by them (On Sundays Publication, Tokyo) in 1983.
I love that image so I asked for info and yesterday they replied:
Herewith, we may tell you details of "Keith Haring, 1983" Poster.
Price: JPยฅ30,000
525 X 680mm
2 color offset lithograph printing.
Shipping via EMS(traceable via Japan Post): cost depend on destination.
Packed with cardboard tube.
Payment before shipping. (by wire)
I remind that the lithograph is printed on Japanese pearlescent paper, Edition 1000. 30,000 yen is around Euro 230, or ยฃ203 if you prefer. If you consider shipping costs, VAT and customs duties the full price in Europe wouldn't be less than Euro 330. Not a great price considering that you can find it around Euro 250, more or less. On the other side the buyer would get a great provenance, the publisher itself!

Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by ca on Apr 1, 2020 6:18:13 GMT 1, Anybody can share some info on this unsigned/unnumbered edition apparently limited to 1000 and produced in 1983? Also, anything to look out for when differentiating authentic vs fake?
Any detail can help. Cheers

Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by Rock it Dont Stop it on Apr 1, 2020 8:34:25 GMT 1, Yup. Only 1,000 were printed in 1983 (confirmed by Watari Galerie, which is where I bought mine) for Haringโs first show in Tokyo.
The best thing to look for would be the paper that itโs printed on - they used this โpearlescentโ paper that glistens when you look at it up close.
Feel free to hit me up and I can provide photos.

Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by whattheactualf on Apr 1, 2020 8:39:33 GMT 1, Hi CAL,
I purchased two at Watari itself just two years ago or so... They had a number available from their archive, and all I can say is what they told me. That was along the line of these are from our archive, housed professionally, original from its time. Despite the language barrier I was confident these to be from the exhibition.
They had 2 or 3 items from past original exhibitions also on sale, both more recent than the Haring period, but from around C20 years ago from memory. Along with a recent pieces from JR at the time.
I inspected these and could not fault them. I bought two. Both of which I still have with receipts.
The pearlescent on these is like nothing I have seen on a print. I'm with you on this... I hope they are real.
If not, what a bloody beautiful print quality. When did you buy yours?

Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by whattheactualf on Apr 3, 2020 4:47:13 GMT 1, CAL, as accurate as i can measure mine comes in in at 515mm x 680mm
I checked Artnet for some previous sale results and details, and there do seem to be a couple of different measurements going around. None of them coming from major auction houses, which doesn't help make sense of it.
The most common from the sales are close to, or equal to, the above measurements, and who knows how things were done back in '83.
Any ideas on this?

The Basquiat poster is still available at Yvon Lambert but it is commonly believed that the ones available now are from a recent second printing, not printed at the time of the exhibition.

I remember they upped the prices on these a couple of years ago after someone posted them here, never realised they were a second printing though.

I think all the info was on that marvellous 'sleeper' thread that Silky deleted.

I remember they upped the prices on these a couple of years ago after someone posted them here, never realised they were a second printing though. I think all the info was on that marvellous 'sleeper' thread that Silky deleted. I bought one of the original 1000 in 2017 from YL for 250 euro. Shortly after that they showed up on the site as sold out only to be replaced by a second run. I emailed YL In 2018, and they confirmed the second run was also 1000, printed on a slightly thicker paper - and the price rose to 500 euro. My first run print is near mint as these were kept in storage @ YL, whilst prints from the same run that were purchased and framed up in the late 80's often come to auction with 30 years wear and tear - this can obviously cause confusion. My recollection is that this was Basquaits last show before his untimely death in the same year (1988).... |

I don't know if the Basquait stock that Watari have is first or second....The Haring is definitely original 1983 run.
"Keith Haring, who made his first visit to Japan in 1983 by the invitation of Galerie Watari, spent a two-week stay at a huge number of flat and three-dimensional works, printed materials such as stickers and posters and other goods, and even outdoors. We showed off the speed and skill of the street by showing off wall painting and live drawing on the street.
This poster was published by On Sundays at that time, using the artwork drawn by Keith who came to Japan.
Only 10 items will be sold online."

Keith Haring Galerie Watari Poster For Sale, by Anthony Styles on Aug 26, 2020 8:24:17 GMT 1, I often wondered why the Basquiat Supercomb posters were not more expensive tbh. The original run was 1000, from a reputable gallery and his last exhibition before he died.
Agreed, not the best looking piece but still I would have expected them to be worth a little more than the circa ยฃ1000 ish prices they sell for at most.

'cause there is no way to be sure that is the first or second print, maybe?
