EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by Ruggs on Jul 6, 2010 11:49:01 GMT 1, Got this newsletter info today. Thought i'd share the details about the forthcoming 'Not Everything Is So Black and White' print release.
I know a lot of you are still waiting very patiently for this print to drop and I promise it is on it's way. It's a complex 20 colour print and with lots of other things going on, the production has taken longer than expected. As soon as they're ready I'll send a mail out letting you all know exactly when they'll be up on the site and ready to buy. Until then, sit tight and keep that cash to one side. The print will be an edition of 120 for £210 and there will also be a VERY limited hand finished version. I'm afraid I can't reserve prints for people, it's going to be a first come, first served deal.

Between £300 and £350
Would be interesting to know what the hand finishing is gonna be.
Would imagine it would be the coloured rain perhaps??

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by Karl Read on Jul 6, 2010 12:23:26 GMT 1, it looks good and im sure it will be smart (and i am aware the idea was before blah blah) but as someone said before, this is surely just a poor mans nola
I prefer it to Nola. Way prefer it!
Value aside, if i had to hang one on my wall for life and never sell id choose the eelus everytime.

If you argue he's a poor man's Banksy, then you'll argue that any stencil artist other than the big man is. Some of Eelus's prints on show in London at the minute.

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by Happy Shopper on Jul 6, 2010 13:39:01 GMT 1, I liked his Electric Sheep show more than this recent one.
Seemed like he was going in an interesting new direction. But this new show felt like he just trawled magazines and books for images he could give his style too. No meaning or real thought. I could be wrong!

I thought the faces with the geometric shapes etc were the most interesting pieces from the London show, i'm tired of seeing girls with wings etc now though..!

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by RYCA on Jul 7, 2010 8:42:21 GMT 1, i love this print, the original was dope, i don't get how so people are comparing it to nola (probably the weakest banksy print in my opinion), because of the umbrella ? man, this has more going on for me, its a colourfest! and going by the last print (dress-up) this is by far a more (technically) difficult print to produce than alot of prints i have seen? might have to get one...

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by Cedric Mnich on Jul 7, 2010 9:17:44 GMT 1, I am not familiar with screenprinting technique but why is it difficult to produce ? Is it because of the colour rays alignment on the grey BG ?
Why is screenprinting the favorite technique when it can be dealt with high quality inkjet printing nowadays ? Given the number of colours, I am not sure screenprinting is the cheaper compared to inkjet printing.

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by bullet on Jul 8, 2010 0:57:22 GMT 1, i would agree with that, i would see printing it out on a printer (no matter how hi res) a cheat.
old methods in this will never die as the result is so much better and personal.

EELUS • Not Everything is so Back & White, by Cedric Mnich on Jul 8, 2010 10:20:43 GMT 1, Yeah, I can understand that screenprinting is a close technique to stenciling after all and that it gives much more "emotional" value. Given the work requested to make a screenprint (even with machines), I don't think prices are expensive compared to hi-res inkjet printing which after all are only computer printing. Regarding quality I see no difference except screenprinting can have interesting effects such as use of transparency layers or gold / silver inks compared to inkjet.
