Reckon it'd be best to see em personally. Inkjet prints doesn't instill too much confidence, however aren't Giclee prints just Ink jet anyway?

Its the old Micallef 21st century vs My walk or Happy fucked up.
21st century is total spooge as a print, where as My walk and happy fucked up and probably the rest of the eyestorm lot just aren't quite up to the quality of 21st century... Which is probably why its always been more expensive.

Quite impressed with the old sausage memory if I don't mind saying so.

Gordon Cheung..., by pezlow on Jun 28, 2007 9:40:19 GMT 1, Strangely a mate of mine has just bought a small Gordon Cheung original from the drawing room:
www.drawingroom.org.uk
They had a fundraising sale last month and he was one of the artists that contributed.
I don't know a huge amount about him. He is british born chinese. I think he did some post-graduate stuff at the RCA. His originals are very finely painted pictures on pages from the Financial Times (long before Mantis had the idea).
I saw the prints at Alan Christea when they had their print exhibition last xmas. They look pretty good in the flesh but nowhere near as good as his originals. I have seen some of his originals at previous royal academy summer exhibitions. Also I think Saatchi has some of his work.

Gordon Cheung..., by owl on Jun 28, 2007 22:04:24 GMT 1, They are a set of 4 prints in an edition of 25.
Rider (my favourite)
Floating Worlds
Monkey
Colosseum
I first saw Rider at a show in Islington earlier this year & it was a gallery called Houldsworth.
Went to have a look at them & was v.tempted.
They wanted £1,000 + vat or £3,500 for the set at the time.
Apart from the price (which somehow seems quite reasonable nowadays) they are a bit big which was probably what put me off - haven't got the space to do them justice.
Can recommend Houldsworth tho' - friendly,enthusiastic etc.....& no I am not connected to them in any way, just a humble collector.
I think if Gordon keeps up this quality level we'll see more of him.
Hope this helps.
