Adam Koukoudakis, by jboy on May 3, 2007 1:29:38 GMT 1, Hi guys, i'm one of those who tends to just hang around on here if i'm honest with you, but i enjoy reading everything on here and hearing about the latest stuff!
I am posting my first post (if thats correct English) about Adam Koukoudakis who i saw at Lazinc a while ago. Could anyone tell me more about his work or what he has done. I've seen a few bits but i am looking to buy some of his stuff when i can find some for sale!!

Adam Koukoudakis, by ABC on May 3, 2007 9:36:35 GMT 1, I was chatting to him just last week, His canvas did really well at the Pez charity show and he seems to be a geniune bloke so just drop him a line.

Adam Koukoudakis, by jboy on May 3, 2007 12:16:39 GMT 1, Yeah his work seems to be a bit under rated. I really like it, especially his smurf print thats genius! By the way, i had an email from one of the organisers of the planet patrol do tonight that eelus will for once NOT do any star wars stuff for his print. Sounds interesting...

There were a lot of jealous people on the night of the auction! Congratulations. I saw it in the flesh and it looked great.
Is anyone else planning on going to Cargo tonight btw? Me and Mrs Stylus will be there...

Adam Koukoudakis, by rydal on May 3, 2007 20:21:58 GMT 1, Do I sense a slight warming towards Adam? Previously a lot of forum members didn't really rate "that smurf bloke" at all. Personally I have a Bleedin' Smurf canvas and Cheeky Pigz and love them both, the Smurf looks great on the wall. Adz is indeed a top bloke and I for one wish him every success. If he gets together with a reputable print house and releases a few good pieces I think he could build quite a following.

What is 'crap' in your eyes, just out of interest?

Adam Koukoudakis, by jboy on May 4, 2007 0:32:11 GMT 1, I'm not going to mention any names as that would cause a whole load of mischief. I just mean prints and other pieces that are complete crap and people just buy for the sake of it because its new thats all. A bit like hamsters hoarding any food they see is a good analogy i would say!

Adam Koukoudakis, by carlito on May 4, 2007 0:39:31 GMT 1, I think the great thing about this about this forum is that it opens your eyes to new artists.
I'm going to keep an eye out for new works by Adam.
I think there's an awful lot of decent prints coming out at the momentl....
give us a clue about the 'crap' ones I'm interested too (promise no minus respect points from me)

Adam Koukoudakis, by jboy on May 4, 2007 0:45:41 GMT 1, I agree, i am all up for new artists. I guess we all have different tastes its just sometimes a watch people buying prints for extortionate amounts of money and they are just buying for the sake of it without appreciating what it is. They are almost buying it because everyone else is and i just think thats a bit weird thats all. Each to their own i guess! ... and i think Adam is one to watch out for as once he gets himself established he has got some great ideas, there should not be any snobbery involved just because no one is buying his stuff.

Adam Koukoudakis, by RetroCanvas on May 4, 2007 0:58:55 GMT 1, Well,
It's only a temporary thing, the render needs taking off of the castle so its being used as the artists canvas before it gets pulled off.
Cool project though. I bet they'll hate it when it gets ripped down.
