5 x Jose Parla originals for sale, by highbrow on Jun 19, 2011 17:36:53 GMT 1, First off I have to agree as far as selling paintings, once he purchases them, trades for them , baters for them whatever they belong to him. Maybe he needs to fund another purchase, maybe he has a personal issue, maybe he owuld rather have 100K cash sitting in his house, regardless it is his business. I guess we would say then it is in poor taste for Carmichael gallery to have a show of resells, or ebay is in poor taste, or whatever. Once he legally obtains the art, it is his to do with what he wants. As far as also calling the kettle black there is no difference in selling one print and 5 paintings still the same crime, like if you steal 1million dollars or 1 dollar definition in the dictionary is still stealing. So enjoy selling your kaws print and I am sure two of the 5 works he listed will find a good home as well and everyone will be happy..

5 x Jose Parla originals for sale, by artylang on Jun 19, 2011 17:48:29 GMT 1, I guess I look at it a little differently. When I purchase work for my collection, I am usually very considered, active and passionate in obtaining it. When I do get the opportunity to add that special piece to my collection I feel a connection to that gallery or artist. As collectors, we are protectors of the art, and that artists' market and reputation. A sale like this does none of that.

lmao! That sounds so pretentious. As collector, I enjoy looking at the pieces on my wall and it's enough to make me feel well. Must be boring to feel invested with a higher purpose and duties... Go say your prayers and then you'll run 20 miles as punishment for that kaws print! ;D

Plus people are not allowed to post private information about people on the forum. If you cant follow these rules you do run the risk of being removed from the forum.
Thanks! Have a nice weekend.

Do you listen to yourself?
Spoken like someone who has never had financial problems. You are hardly a hero for not selling art. You are not curing cancer. You are spending lots of money on pretty pictures, one of the most selfish things you can do with your money. Get over yourself.

If you acquire it from an artist/collector, I think it's a sign of respect to hold on to it for a couple of years and if you chose not to then contact the artist/collector to inform them of the sale.

Everything you have was bought at sometime to say selling something is anything other them a way of life is crazy. Art is no different then my dining room table can I not sell that, I mean an artist puts his heart into the work, the man that made my dining room table I know worked on it for 5 months , he put his heart into that can I never sell it ? Again good luck with the sale hope you are making a buttload of cash on it.

5 x Jose Parla originals for sale, by oneeye on Jun 20, 2011 21:53:06 GMT 1, This is the exact reason why Jose is overly protective of his work. Blasting out 5 pieces for sale on a public forum isn't good for any artists' career. Immediately makes the artist and the pieces less special.
That being said, I think the owner is entitled to do whatever they want.

5 x Jose Parla originals for sale, by tadghostal on Jun 20, 2011 22:01:53 GMT 1, Hey, amb--I went through the hassle of trying to offer a Parla through previous galleries and even here before settling on using Sotheby's. Parla is one of my favorite artists, but man--he and his galleries have done an absolutely shitty job of developing a reasonably functional secondary market. Hit me up via PM if you'd like to swap notes. It's possible I could spare you some hassle in not dealing with people who routinely engage as though they're real buyers only to tie up pieces for days/weeks, and then failing to follow through. You're likely to hear from them now that you've posted here.
Good luck.

That being said, I think the owner is entitled to do whatever they want.
As I've already said, they were offered to all 3 of his current / past dealers before offered openly.
Elms do not trade in secondary market but I was 'extremely' unhappy with his US gallery, and still am. Absolutely disgusted by them.
Lastly, not that it's a big deal. They were offered for sale on a US forum prior to this and I had put that any '2' of the five were for sale. I just showed 5 so people could choose.
I didn't add that to the post here, not for any reason, just didn't copy and paste my post from the other forum.
People that use both forums will see my message prior to the one here stating that.
______ posts are comical.
He is without doubt one of the biggest flippers on here. Hirst Decks, KAWS, Tauba Auerbach $1000 print for $5000 the day after it sold out at Printed Matter...the list goes on and on and on and on. Even his fellow countrymen are calling him out:)
Now he's doing the Zzzz like it's boring, but I think it's kind of backfired. lol
____ is unhappy as he *asked to remove this bit* and is now worried his investment has dropped in value. That is the one and only reason why he decided to start having a dig.
No offense intended ____. We've had some great chats in the past and I have no issue...just a bit of banter, and we have already spoken by PM and I think we decided to agreed to disagree.
It's been amusing reading some of the comments above...all good fun.

5 x Jose Parla originals for sale, by afroken on Jun 20, 2011 22:24:18 GMT 1, It strikes me that the big problem here is the galleries. Amb, you have talked up Elms on here many times but surely you must realise now that they are damaging the careers of the artists that they represent (or should I say, represented because they've all gone elsewhere). If you're going to sell art at those kinds of prices then you owe it to collectors and above all the artists to protect their ecosystem. If they're not prepared to place secondary market works carefully then they shouldn't be selling it in the first place, particularly not at artificially inflated prices.
Elms is a gallery that I decided some time ago NEVER to deal with for this simple reason. They are quite frankly full of s**t.
Without a doubt selling this kind of work on forums is damaging, but only if it goes unsold, and unfortunately the damage is done with Parla. The best thing he can do is draw a line under it and get some proper representation.
And for the record, if I were you I'd be selling them on here too so I'm not having a dig.

No problem with what you've said at all.
A very well written post and I agree with you 100%.
But I also think that it shouldn't be 'my' responsibility to give a full background to details leading up to the sale (which have now come out).
I think it's a bit unfair that people have to justify themselves sometimes.
Hopefully people will see I followed the 'ethical' steps first, and then decided to offer to what I believed to be a group of people that may have been interested in a piece.
If I had put on eBay, then that's a whole different story.

EDIT: which is his US gallery by the way? Have you tried Oh-Wow? They represent him too and I've had nothing but an exceptional experience of them. One of the best galleries I've dealt with. If your bad experience was with Oh-Wow then ignore me.

As for eBay...I think I'll keep them:)

Why not?. I would have thought Elms would have a list of people who were interested in Parla's work they could email and try and get rid of them to his fans. They could make a few quid out of it. You would be happy, job done.

10% to 20% is they sell the piece they got from me.
50% if they sell the piece they got from the artist.
When there's no shortage of work from the artist, why bother selling mine?
I guess 30% to 40% is the reason:)
Mainly because they can't. Why not?. I would have thought Elms would have a list of people who were interested in Parla's work they could email and try and get rid of them to his fans. They could make a few quid out of it. You would be happy, job done. 10% to 20% is they sell the piece they got from me. 50% if they sell the piece they got from the artist. When there's no shortage of work from the artist, why bother selling mine? I guess 30% to 40% is the reason:)
