Damien Hirst H15 โข The Archangels, by keyser on Apr 30, 2024 16:02:30 GMT 1, I used to buy quite a bit from Heni and be lucky with plenty of lotteries etc. Made the mistake of cancelling my Empresses order when there was a huge delay on them and the NFT kids were driving the price down and haven't been lucky since! Convinced I've been added to a naughty list with all the flippers selling at auction too quickly.

Hirst isnโt against flipping which is why he doesnโt have any resell conditions. |

The 4196 figure is probably made up. Even if true, there will be multiple applications from the same person / gallery (and their distant relatives / pets etc) and they would count an application for all 4 as four applications.
For those that missed out, they might hear again within 48 hours - but I would drop Heni an email to say you want to buy if there is a cancellation. ๐

Damien Hirst H15 โข The Archangels, by artlike on Apr 30, 2024 17:56:50 GMT 1, I'll stop. Great if you're happy. But people on here mostly WANT TO buy something, WANT TO like something. They see the big name, see the profits that were made with the Virtues, need something that is easy on the eyes and identifiable by the uneducated visitor. I'm sure even Hirst himself thinks it's all a big joke.

Yeah fair game.
If I was a betting man I would wager the applicants were considerably higher than 4200

But the money is taken out immediately if successful and given the value of these I would expect people lucky enough to get 2 will keep to sell on.

You gotta admit though, this art collecting thing is kind of ridiculous right? I mean I'm addicted as well, but Jesus, what we pay for unimpressive crap is just nuts.
Ask anyone in the street who doesn't collect art, what you or I just paid for <Insert Art Object here> and what we just got, and they'll think we're insane and/or stupid.
So we don't look as crazy, we then have to follow-up by saying, "well you can immediately sell this for 3x as much."
Collecting is a serious addiction.

I also buy what I like to look at, but remember years ago when I was caught up in the UAA hype machine chasing things without actually really liking what bought and slowly figuring out that many here are just trying to boost their own eBay sales by creating a market.
You're right that my comments are often snide. A lot of the times, it's just to have a fun time trying to counter the hype. I just assume that most of the posts here aren't very genuine. Apologies if you were offended enough to feel the need to give your own opinion. But I do welcome you to the conversation.
To me it's baffling why people spend large amounts on autographed printouts from famous artists, when prints are never even close to how great an original artwork can be. That money can be spent to buy a good sized painting from artists who may be far more talented than the celebrity artist. Especially with these Hirst editions of late, anyone here can go to an art supply store and produce the same, if not better work for $100. And they would have the satisfaction of creating something rather than just consuming.
So why do people spend $8000 on a printout? Is it for the minute connection to the artist?
You would think the only rational motivation that could possibly drive someone to purchase Hirst editions would be the potential resale, because no one here would buy this same edition at the same price, if it was released by a guy off the street.
Or is it motivated by the thrill of the hunt? The addiction of securing a release and the adrenaline rush from that.
I'm really curious to know what motivates everyone. Is it just something nice to look at before the eventual sale?

Iโve always been baffled why people buy autographed print-outs instead of the original large format blossom paintings, which can be sourced from White Cube / Gagosian or at auction for as little as ยฃ1m. |

Fine if you think so! But how is that format the best when the originals are a completely different format?
Format means the shape, size, and general makeup (as of something printed).
I.e a giclee is the best format for an edition of these paintings.

I was lucky enough to be allocated Raphael, which I am shamelessly flipping, please get in touch if you havenโt been allocated one and would be interested in purchasing.

Damien Hirst H15 โข The Archangels, by nobokov on May 1, 2024 15:14:27 GMT 1, That's good. I also buy what I like to look at, but remember years ago when I was caught up in the UAA hype machine chasing things without actually really liking what bought and slowly figuring out that many here are just trying to boost their own eBay sales by creating a market.
You're right that my comments are often snide. A lot of the times, it's just to have a fun time trying to counter the hype. I just assume that most of the posts here aren't very genuine. Apologies if you were offended enough to feel the need to give your own opinion. But I do welcome you to the conversation.
To me it's baffling why people spend large amounts on autographed printouts from famous artists, when prints are never even close to how great an original artwork can be. That money can be spent to buy a good sized painting from artists who may be far more talented than the celebrity artist. Especially with these Hirst editions of late, anyone here can go to an art supply store and produce the same, if not better work for $100. And they would have the satisfaction of creating something rather than just consuming.
So why do people spend $8000 on a printout? Is it for the minute connection to the artist?
You would think the only rational motivation that could possibly drive someone to purchase Hirst editions would be the potential resale, because no one here would buy this same edition at the same price, if it was released by a guy off the street.
Or is it motivated by the thrill of the hunt? The addiction of securing a release and the adrenaline rush from that.
I'm really curious to know what motivates everyone. Is it just something nice to look at before the eventual sale?
Iโve always been baffled why people buy autographed print-outs instead of the original large format blossom paintings, which can be sourced from White Cube / Gagosian or at auction for as little as ยฃ1m.
