Faile - Saed for sale, by met on Feb 15, 2023 3:52:13 GMT 1,
To potential buyers, I would advise exercising caution before moving forward with any acquisition of Faile Tower pieces.
The Tower was part of the Bedtime Stories solo show in 2010*, held at the New York gallery of the disgraced, convicted and now-dead Perry Rubenstein.
Without the approval or consent of the artists, the original purchaser took it upon himself to dismantle the Tower and re-sell some of its components individually.
As far as I'm aware, Faile continue to refuse to recognise the separated pieces as Faile artworks. And rightly so in my view because, for the artists themselves, those pieces were part of and sold as a whole โ they were never intended to be standalone.
Adding to the unseemliness is the fact that one or more owners of separated Tower pieces were apparently dishonest (including through omission) about the non-recognised status of those pieces when they subsequently tried to offload them onto other buyers.
Within the Faile market, it is fair to say these Tower pieces are therefore viewed by many as tainted.
No informed, reputable dealer, gallery or auction house would touch these. And to the extent they may be uninformed, this would immediately call into question their due diligence procedures and general competence.
Some further comments can be read in the thread, PSA: Faile Works on Wood from the Faile Tower, started by WOOF on 25 June 2019.

Faile - Saed for sale, by hnkpnk on Feb 15, 2023 9:28:22 GMT 1, Agree with Met.
But also, without the missing "V" panel it doesn't make much sense and is pretty ugly. What is "SAED"? Why is her arm growing out of her neck? Where's the missing eagle head?

They shouldn't be opening this many threads.
And they shouldn't be posting the text in the thread description, because that blows the preview massively out of proportion.
