Tavar Zawacki ๐บ๐ธ Above Street Art โข Print Release, by karengolden on Apr 19, 2010 11:14:34 GMT 1, Above just made available his most recent print editions titled "READ BETWEEN THE LINES." (normal + X-rated editions)
DIRECT LINK HERE >>>http://goabove.com/main/?p=785
EDITION SIZE: 25 NORMAL EDITION (Seeing is believing), + 11 SPECIAL โX-RATED EDITIONโ (Go fuck yourself)
PRICE: $100.00 US DOLLARS FOR NORMAL EDITION (Seeing is believing) /// $175.00 US DOLLARS FOR โX-RATED EDITION (Go fuck yourself)
>>>>>>
SEEING IS BELIEVING (night+ glow in the dark)
SEEING IS BELIEVING (daytime far)
SEEING IS BELIEVING (close up)
>>>>>>> X RATED EDITION>>>>
GO F*CK YOURSELF (Night+glow in the dark)
GO F*CK YOURSELF (far daytime)
GO F*CK YOURSELF (close up)
โREAD BETWEEN THE LINESโ INFO: Above is back at it again with his creative wit and conceptual ideas. We are seriously impressed by how much Above is able to juggle and produce. With less than 2-weeks until his jam packed gallery show in San Francisco he gave us this new print to upload and release. When we asked Above about his โread between the linesโ edition he had several different replies that all seemed to make us laugh, go a little cross-eyed, and question if his concept and perspectives of looking at things is either pure genius or cracked out retardedness? I suppose the selling results of this print will put that question to the test?! What is impressive was the surprise element that we didnโt know about when we looked at the print until Above turned off the lights and we saw a new glowing image under all those black lines. Above has been designing and mixing chemicals to get what he calls โnight oozeโ that is a very hyper reactive glow in the dark mixture that he hand finished on each print. Quoting Above โWhen I was in high school I went to a lot of warehouse raves and once I was rolling on Ecstasy when some other ravers were breaking open glow sticks and dripping the glowing ink all over the floor. The glowing effect and concept of only being able to see something in the dark made me think it was a great medium to work with? But then again I was super high on drugs so what the hell did I know?! I literally spelled it out in the prints titleโs so take a moment to read between the lines, think, and then turn off the lights and enjoy againโ

The intersection of lines and the amazing glow at night is something to really see. To see a big pair of cartoon looking eyes staring back at you from the wall at night is not something you get to see all the time? Thanks for your feedback

He wanted me to explain it better but insisted its not your normal "speedball" glow inks. Just a few of the X-rated edition. Should be sold out be midnight?!

Just wanted to inform you that this morning the "X-RATED" edition sold out. We still have a small handful of the normal edition available if anyone wants to purchase before they are sold out. I'm in the process of uploading more photos of Above's "gift pack" for his free giveaway at his show at Whitewalls. I'll be back soon with some new photos.

If anything if one were to read a little closer into the depth of the statement about art and the "art world" you might find it pretty funny.
I wear contacts so maybe I don't see the same as you?! No worries the X-rated edition has sold out and as last check we only have 4 left of the 25 normal edtion. Rock on dude!

Stale design, idea, execution. And no, not every print is pushing boundaries or original but this could have been knocked up in 5 minutes. Taking me slightly longer to find the deep statement about the art world mind you.

The city of Madrid, Spain is the selected city where Above visited last year during his European stencil tour. We enjoyed the photo and placement of his stencil and hope that you feel the same way. As always each print comes signed, embossed and individually hand finished by Above. Just $99.00 for 1 print in an edition of 25. All 3 previous editions have sold out and we can only anticipate the same results for the Above Madrid prints. Thank you and have a wonderful week.

This photo was taken in 2008 during Aboveโs then 6-month long โSouthcentral tourโ thru south and central america. Unless you live under a rock or never seen the movie SCARFACE then you should get what Above is commenting on here.
small edition of 25, each hand colored by Above for only $ 99.00 U.S. Dollars.
It's a fun edition and very affordable! Maybe that's why all 5 previous cities have already sold out.
