again, tell us what you think would do the print justice. what would you choose for frame and matte, colors, etc.?

Banksy Stop and Search Print, by mp on Feb 11, 2008 6:23:13 GMT 1, I went with the seemingly unpopular white box frame with a float mount to see the deckled edge, but that being said I think everyone's looks great and framing choices are the same as art itself. Not everything will appeal to everyone, so buy the one that makes you happiest.
To answer your other question, I never used to frame my pieces in white, until I saw some of Faile's work in white box frames at a gallery and was blown away by how much emphasis it puts on on each piece itself. Been doing it ever since.
With Stop and Search, I kind of just love how the image feels like it comes out of nowhere amidst all the white.

okay, so the frame part is out of the way.
now, what colors of matte would you do...or are you a floating type of guy? keep in mind there is a lot of negative space in this print.

So we should all frame our prints the way you like it. Sounds great. I think often the idea is to have a street art motive in a fancy print. Not a new idea but can work very well.

Blimey thanks for the insight.
I completely missed the point of this print it seems.
I thought it featured Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz, written in 1900 and turned into a film in 1939. I'm ignoring the policeman as I think Dorothy is the star of the piece. They would have therefore definitely used a minimalist frame in that case - no 'ornamental' frames back then - or were there?
I have rung the local adult education centre but they don't have 'Basic Concepts in Art and Design 101' and even asked what '101' meant as we are English. I was thus wondering if you could give me some pointers RuralHick? I was particularly interested in the use of colour in your minimalist frames - or is it just white frame, white mount, white wall, and whitewash anyone else who wants to do something different?
I do like the white frames above but equally like some of the others.
Eagerly awaiting you reply HickUp,
yours sincerely,
Andrew Youngus Maximus III Jr.

Banksy Stop and Search Print, by thetruth55 on Feb 14, 2008 22:20:54 GMT 1, Well, since I started this thread, I'd like to share my Stop and Search...just got it back from the framer's. This is my first signed Banksy and the first Banksy I've had framed so far. I went with TrueView Museum glass, archival mattes, mylar corners on the backing....I think I was fairly lucky in getting an outer matte that is nearly an exact match to the color of the officer's gloves. My reasoning for my selection....lots of white negative space in the image...thought the first black matte would nicely outline the image (i.e. draw you in), and the second matte was to highlight the obvious - the latex gloves. Please let me know what you all think. I suppose I can already expect "rurualhick" to say it is hideous....but anyway, all comments are welcome...I like it so that's all that matters. Thanks to everyone else for contributing their photos here as well - they all look superb!

Whats quantifiable about it? What makes your opinion the correct approach and all others an indictment of their art taste? Why not simply state your preference than assume yourself to be the leading authority on frames and art taste?
Just for you two contrasting frames that IMO work well. Note IMO thus suggesting I am quite happy for others to prefer something different. Making neither their or my opinion right or wrong.

Two things here. While it is true that there are basic principles of colour theory, this IS just that - theory. Because the way people perceive different colours is still subjective. So while it may be clear to your sensibilities that "the fundamentals have been bastardized" it might not seem so to everyone else in the world.
And secondly I believe the saying is "less is more"

Banksy Stop and Search Print, by Harveyn on Feb 15, 2008 10:14:05 GMT 1, "Colour theory of Art" is more to do with basic colour concepts that can or cannot be used when constructing an image. Since when has art been solely about visual appeasement. Do you seriously believe that some of the most creative artist of our time did not purposely work with exactly the opposite concept in mind to create an image from colours that intentionally produce conflict.
Your not picking Dulex colour swatches for your bedroom.
Besides which please indicate the countless examples that you refer to that break this colour theory and also can you possibly take your caps lock off.
