PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by corblimeylimey on May 9, 2007 16:15:08 GMT 1, After I've completed the Tarot card series by Scorn (and hopefully bought Trolley Hunting too) my wallet will be empty, and the walls will be covered. The only way to go then is to sell something to replace it for something better although it would be a VERY tricky choice deciding what should go, I'm not sure I'd let any of them go.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by johnerotten on May 9, 2007 16:55:57 GMT 1, i agree. one of many variables in this "market."
resptect +1
I think at times we could possibly be getting people that want to talk about a market crash, just as an attempt to temporarily drop ebay prices so they can buy them up cheap, and then make a killing when the values pick up again   I could well be wrong, but lets not play the game

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by tomhills1 on May 9, 2007 17:25:46 GMT 1, Just a post about some things been reading here on the board such as the the LA printer's proofs up on ebay right now that are all the rage and the insane hyperinflated Banksy prices on ebay. 1. Printer's proofs. I guess these prints will be worth as much as anyone is willing to pay for them at the time. But honestly/ Printer's proofs ARE NOT worth more than the regular editions and historically have most often been less desirable in collector's circles than the regular edition despite the fact that there are "less of them" as seller's often like to trumpet. Realistically they should be exactly the same. And worth practically the same. And while I'm here, the rare "low number" b.s. that a lot of ebayers also like to claim make's their print more valuable is absolutely 100% a crock of sh*t. The number of the edition has nothing to do with it's value ***except possibly if it's a drypoint intaglio because the etched lines can fade towards the end of the edition. 2. I know Banksy is here to stay and we all love Banksy or else I wouldn't be here! Ok. But let's get realistic. Some people like to think buying Banksy prints is like printing money. And it's true there is a huge demand for Banksy but at the same time the ever escalating value of Banksy prints reaks of hyperinflation and bubble. And on top of that there isn't a single artist ever in my estimation who's work has escalated so dramatically EVEN THOUGH many of these images are printed in editions up to and over 1,000! Not even Warhol's prices escalted so dramatically until the 90s, long after he died. And this also is coinciding with a worldwide hyperinflation of prices for art. But art market crashes can happen and have happened before. The problem with art is you don't "need" art. And when the sh*t hits the fan it's that kind of stuff that gets hit the hardest. The art market crashed in the 90s. Look it up. This crash was related to yet again hyperinflated prices that were followed by a real esate crash particularly in asia that affected economies worldwide. Julian Schnabel is the poster boy for failed art markets. Extremely hot in the late 80s and then... from financialsense.com: "Luxury spending is the first thing to fail when the oxygen goes out of the economy," wrote Robert Hughes for Time magazine in 1990. Air was still gushing out of Japan's asset-price bubbles, and "art [was] the canary in the mine shaft." The little bird stuffed by Tokyo's plutocrats croaked it on Tuesday, 6 Nov. at a Sotheby's sale in New York. The auctioneer โ head of Sotheby's North America โ choked as he cut the asking price for a Julien Schnabel piece made of broken plates from $650,000 to $210,000. Yet still there were no takers. It had sold in London the previous year for $225,000. I'm not saying Banksy prices are going to drop. But don't think Banksy is immune. If anything happens to the economy, if the real estate crash (here in the states) get's much worse. If inflation due to rising gas prices get's worse. If the economy fails due to say global warming catastrophies etc. Then jobs are going to suffer, pay's going to suffer and nobody is going to want to spend $20,000 on a signed barcode print. Get real. When you're trying to stretch all you got to pay your mortgage and raise your kids then who cares about a Banksy print in an edition of 1,000? really... Of course if all you paid was $1000 great, not a big deal. But if you paid $20,000 for a freakin barcode print. You better be on your toes... www.financialsense.com/fsu/editorials/ash/2007/0209.html
this is what i love about intelligent articulate people: they put into one post what i've tried to say in a whole thread! 
brown-nosing over, concise and to the point are two things i will never be and i truly respect you for being both.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by pezlow on May 9, 2007 17:31:47 GMT 1, Apologies to all for my double (and triple) posting on this thread earlier. I honestly have no idea why it happened and thanks to Silky for sorting it out. Hopefully it won't happen with this post.
Anyway back to matter in hand if there is a crash in prices I think it will affect us all. Whether we want to keep our art or sell it anyone who doesn't have at least some eye on it's value has got to be super rich. Furthermore, and perhaps more importantly, a crash doesn't just bring a reduction in prices but also means a hell of a lot less vibrancy in the scene - less investment in new artists from galleries, less shows etc etc. As an art junkie that would be a disappointing scenario.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by corblimeylimey on May 9, 2007 18:17:52 GMT 1, Why is everyone talking about a crash? Banksy is on the up and IMO prices have a way to go yet, really when you think about it, it's only just starting to take off. The US and word markets have only just started to become interested, I can see this year and probably next being better than ever, who knows after that but it doesn't have to end in a crash.

I'm with you Silky, it really is just starting BRP have only been going since Feb, SOS are also in their the early stages, Stella Dore a month or two away. Lots of artists only just beginning to get into the print and commercial side of it, the whole sector is just beginning to grow this time last year it had hardly even started.

Grow up." Hahah, yeah, I noticed if you don't pump up Banksy all the time here you get some negs. Oh well. Yeah, sorry Pezlow, I mentioned some of this stuff one time elsewhere burried in another thread and just thought I'd post it one more in it's very own thread. Sorry. I'm just a little tired of seeing ebay sellers make claims about prints and printmaking that aren't necessarily true. And as for the art market crash. Ok it's the second time I mentioned it. But all day long people also post prophecies about how much more there Banksy will be worth if they can just wait a little longer. And how there is no place to go but up. And why talk about any possible negative consequences when their prints are worth record sums. And how new artists and printshops are popping up by the dozen (that's not a good sign imo, I mean I'm all for artists making a buck, but when everyone starts trying to get on the train, that's a classic sign of, well...) ...so 2 times I mention crashes versus hundreds of people pumping banksy. But hey I love Banksy. It's a classic rags to riches story here for him and the collectors, which is what makes all of this so captivating and interesting. But it's also just a little sketchy too. If it looks too good to be true it usually is. The sun doesn't always shine. I'm not wishing anyone bad luck. I'm more just amazed at what people will spend without considering the risks.
As i and most on here have bought at POW prices and because we love the images i dont think its a big worry.
i would only be worried if i had paid 10K for a barcode.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by stuey09 on May 10, 2007 8:41:37 GMT 1, You're spot on Curley, and for me this is a key point. Paying a few hundred for a print that you get a lot of pleasure from looking at isn't a gamble of any kind. So if a person sticks to affordable art that they like - and theres plenty around - they really can't go far wrong. Let the gamblers worry about a price crash.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by corblimeylimey on May 10, 2007 10:48:01 GMT 1, With you curley and stuey, I've been fortunate in that everything I've bought apart from J&J and Bleks Tango have come direct from the printers/artist I've possibly paid ยฃ80 over the odds for Tango, but that's offset by gaining ยฃ250 on the J&J alone.
I'd be happy if the prices stayed the same, I'd even be better off if I sold them for 25% less than they're worth now but I'd rather have them on the walls so I'm not really bothered.

Complete insanity. (unless you earn 100k a week and/or play for Chelski)
i was thinking last night what does this say for a signed trollies in the POW edition ?
The price on this one print is almost double all the others in the run
if they do a signed colour run of 300 what are they going to be worth ?

Why is the Trollies so hyped and nearly double the price of the othe LA P/P's?
Personally I dont like it as much as say Morons, but hey, what do I know.

PRINTER'S PROOFS and ART MARKET CRASHES, by onemandown72 on May 11, 2007 20:21:01 GMT 1, I love all this talk of money, crash, who loses out etc. all of which are anything but uppermost in the minds of the artists when they create their work.
The first and only sensible rule of buying any art, is that you must like, if not love what you buy.
If not it is just like putting cash on the horses, only pay what you can afford to lose.

OMD - I completely agree with the sentiment of your post and have quoted this mantra myself many a time.
Though I beg to differ about the talk of money being anything but uppermost in the minds of the artists when they create their work. Look at the subject matter of Banksy's LA prints - I'd argue that 3 of the 6 draw their inspiration from just this type of debate.
