David Choe โข Jimi Hendrix , by Heavyconsumer on Jun 26, 2009 6:43:38 GMT 1, It def' says in his blog that this print is a giclee. If that puts anyone off who grabbed one, I'll take yours off your hands at cost (god only knows where I could hang such a beast though!!!).
(ramble time) Personally I prefer high quality giclees to most screen prints I've seen. So far the best looking prints I've seen in the flesh have all been giclees, including some of Choes earlier releases as well as from other artists e.g. Neate, plus with an artist such as Choe who's prints are def' secondary to his paintings, it's probably the best way to get a likeness for the OG piece. For artists who specialise in print-making, like McCarthy, Danger etc etc, I guess the screen print is actually their medium of choice and primary product. I'm sure it depends who produces them etc etc, but I'm no expert, I just know what I think looks good on the wall. Baring in mind most artists don't ever pull the screens themselves or produce the actual screens, I couldn't care less what technique is used, just as long as the end product looks good.

I can see why his $500 prints might have taken a little longer to sell out, in these tough times, but there's no doubting his talent and he certainly isn't hiding. His Chinese show looked pretty immense from the pics I saw online, his paintings are selling for a lot of money these days and they seem to sell pretty quickly when offered - and now this, unquestionably THE print of his career so far IMO. I'd love to see it in the flesh some day, even if I'm not lucky enough to own one.
As for being available all night, they were sold out by the time I read about it, at around 23:00 in Brazil (03:00 BST). Unfortunately I hadn't read/heard about this one in advance.

They weren't available for more than 2 or 3 minutes. I recieved an email from him with about 100 other names at 2:15 pacific and you can see that he posted the details to his blog at 2:16 pacific. The very first comment under that blog update is from Choe himself stating that they were sold out before he finished updating his blog. It should make a nice print for those who grabbed them.

David Choe โข Jimi Hendrix , by lee3 on Jun 26, 2009 19:53:02 GMT 1, Willy, they are under the framed artists stuff on this site. I still haven't seen the original myself as my father lives on the east coast but will probably be paying him a visit later this year. He caught the collecting bug a couple years ago after seeing Choe's City Girl and has set himself up with a very nice Choe collection though I don't believe he's branched out to other artists yet- I guess he knows what he likes. I remember him asking me if he could have City Girl, as if I owed him something for raising me, and I told him point blank that he's F'ing nuts and to start his own collection. Maybe a print for bringing me into this world but certainly not that piece. I don't recall if he ever framed the Hendrix piece but I doubt it given its size. The photos are towards the bottom of the link below that i posted some time ago before it had been stretched to a frame. I should add that I didn't take those photos and if memory serves they came from Choe.
