Artists You Might Not Know, by Mirus Gallery on Jun 2, 2018 23:58:41 GMT 1, Haha, what a great thread. Im not one to judge but being around this forum long enough there isn't much that moves the needle besides that list of artists. Some are deserving others meh. But in the end I see this forum as a place to speculate about prices and art versus genuinely collecting. Maybe I am wrong and I know many of you guys actually have a real passion for collecting but maybe don't speak up. The only threads stay relevant are those selling or speculating.
As a gallery I post plenty of new artists with installation shots and rarely get a reply. I still post hoping one day people would wake up and contribute more and share more about emerging artists.

Artists You Might Not Know, by Happy Shopper on Jun 3, 2018 0:15:50 GMT 1, Javier Calleja is obviously a newish name that many are following.
I'd also add Joakim Ojanen.
How about Ben Frost or Lush? Not new, but also not talked about enough!

Interesting you mention Alex Prager as i think of her as a photographer.
However, the biggest piece hanging in my lounge is by her sister Vanessa Prager.
Certainly recommend checking out her work.

yep. but the sculptures from joakim are much better than the prints... just my 2 cents.

Annoying, it took a couple of days to sell out as well if memory serves. I’m sure there will be other opportunities.

Artists You Might Not Know, by Mirus Gallery on Jun 3, 2018 11:21:53 GMT 1, Also I think people need to realize that selling out a print doesn't amount to much now days, plenty of great artists don't sell out prints but sell original works of art. Also plenty of mediocre artists sell out prints but can't sell originals consistently. I could guess why this happens, most of it is that people are willing to speculate on an artist at a lower cost but not willing to really invest in an original because its cheaper to have less skin in the game. This forum alone has made print markets for mediocre artists, yet its not great at pushing original prices for those same artists. Why do you think that is?

Computer screens are pretty faithful when it comes to print/screen print reproduction in colour terms but are pretty shite when representing something that has a lot of subtlety and layers...
There are also economic factors but I won't go into them as I am not long awake

Artists You Might Not Know, by Express Post on Jun 3, 2018 11:47:47 GMT 1, There is a private chat group that discusses originals. Meets up once a month in London. These are usually private viewings at Art Basel type galleries. Sometimes Christies, Sothebys and Phillips too depending if it's auction season.
Invite only.

For me its about transparency, I always know what a print will cost and can make the judgement if I can afford it or not.
With originals I always have to ask and risk looking lika a fool when I realise the prices was much higher that I thought and I can’t justify it for that piece.
I hate having to ask for prices for every show where I’m interesting in a work hence I end up with more prints than originals.

There are also economic factors but I won't go into them as I am not long awake I don't think people need to see work in the flesh in todays market. We do very large sales over PDF's as people usually know the artists work and have followed the artist enough to either know the quality of the work or have seen one in person before. But seeing the work in person I think is why galleries still exist, just this week for our grand opening we Brought a Kris Kuksi to Denver where people were blown away by the work in person and very appreciative to have us bring this work to their city. Most can't afford a 28K piece but I still am happy we were able to share the piece with the local art fans and collectors. We did end up selling a smaller 500.00 edition from the artist and I am ok with that. |
