I was told that they were. This however runs contrary to what I have also been told - that Ian is solely working on editions for his Blk Mkt exhibition in September. None of this nudge nudge wink wink, more direct feedback from straight questions to both galleries in question

I agree. I respect their desire to make sure the prints are protected well, but the shipping price is just crazy and i'm sure is stopping a lot of legitimate Francis fans (like myself) buying them.

Mean while one of the finest artists to grace the scene in a while has prints going unsold. Ok ok I'm hung over and a little pissed off this morning. <crawls back into his cave>

I've already got my piano girl, and if i wasn't broke at the moment i'd be snapping up the paris print as well!
In fact everyone ignore this until i have some cash again! ;D

It's the cost putting me off. I bought one of the prints from his previous set, as it's my favourite IF. But as much as I like the new set I just can't stomach the price. With shipping/duty you're talking ~ยฃ500.

Not going to argue that arcam and although its a nice gesture sending flat having the common sense to ship in a tube also makes sense. I wonder if the problem is they don't have backups for damaged goods. Either way bend to the consumer and allow a choice BMG I know you will

I could put a print in a wide-mouth rock-solid tube and label "gift" or whatever it takes for you not to have to pay tax on it. just thinking. maybe i'm way off.

Shipping is $75 to Europe, double thick Yazoos.

By far and away one of the best artists on the scene at the moment, and a great gesture from you guys in offering to reduce the shipping costs to the UK. I hope that anyone with the cash takes advantage and gets their ands on some really strong prints.
Right time to watch Newsnight review and see what the BBC take is on the new Andipa exhibition.

Top your going to have to backup that statement for me here compared to what images are these poor? I think all 4 of these images are strong and the detail amazing. I think you can match up Piano player and Paris to anything that has been released to date IMO. Of course everyone is going to have a favorite death star etc but calling these images poor isn't justifiable IMO. I have a print from each edition the quality seems to be about the same.

I was hasty in saying that the images 'are' poorer, just my personal opinion(judging from sales, I'm not the only one), as for the quality of prints, the latest seem to lack a touch of detail on comparison with earlier prints (could just be that I'm being picky-again, just my opinion).
