RAE BK ๐บ๐ธ Brooklyn New York Street Artist, by petro on Jun 4, 2015 19:20:24 GMT 1, Great new prints from Rae. I did get the email and preordered a โItโs The Kids That Suffer.โ Weird how some who are typically on the preorder list didn't get it. I'd just send an email through rae-bk.com and inquire about the print you're interested in.

RAE BK ๐บ๐ธ Brooklyn New York Street Artist, by Deleted on Jun 4, 2015 22:58:20 GMT 1, Thanks for creating the thread Dreadnatty. The release caught me a little by surprise. These are flying out, email me if you would like one or both prints for matching numbers.
Same price as direct from RAE, $350 but lower postage/fees in UK/Europe as posted from the UK. Expecting them here in a couple of weeks.

RAE BK ๐บ๐ธ Brooklyn New York Street Artist, by dreadnatty on Jun 6, 2015 5:04:47 GMT 1,
Chances are youโve likely come across prolific Brooklyn based artist RAEโs work before. If youโve spent any time in NYC, it is almost a certainty that youโve seen some of his stickers, installations or murals. RAEโs art is vibrant, colorful, dynamic and enigmatic and never fails to make me stop and smile when I chance upon it. I have often wondered about the person behind the art and reached out to RAE to ask him my nine questions about his heart, his fears and his notion of the good life. I am delighted that he agreed to participate in our interview series. His responses, as youโll see below, are full of the same poetic whimsy, depth and energy as his artwork. You can connect with RAE on Twitter rae_BK or follow him on Instagram rae_bk.
WHAT WAS THE LAST EXPERIMENT YOU RAN?
I have a cat that speaks to me. She told me she doesnโt want to lead such a nocturnal, lazy and mundane existence. So I made a hole in the bottom of my fence so she can go out and explore the neighborhood. I may take her to see Europe one of these days. In the beginning she was just going out for short trips but now sheโs gone for days. I am about to outfit her with a small camera to see where she winds up and what she does in a day. Iโll let you know how that turns out.
WHAT ARE SOME OF THE THINGS THAT YOU FEAR AND HOW DO YOU MANAGE YOUR FEAR?
I fear that more and more people will make decisions on social and/or political issues based on what their group or party affiliation supports rather than look at issues on a case by case basis.
WHAT BREAKS AND DELIGHTS YOUR HEART? IN OTHER WORDS, WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IN AND SURRENDER TO?
I was in Ethiopia in 2014 and noticed there was pretty much no public spaces for kids to play. In Addis, the capital city, I finally spotted a playground but only one kid was inside playing while others watched from behind a small fence. The fence was one they could have easily climbed over and joined in but they chose not to. Instead they stared longingly at the one kid inside who was laughing and enjoying the zip-line ride and swings all to herself. Next to the entrance of the park was a security guard who told me that the playground belonged to the large hotel behind it and they only allowed guests staying there to use it. It was bitter sweet to see one child enjoying themselves so much while the others couldnโt even get a sniff of what it felt like to soar through the air just for the fun of it.
WHAT IS THE MOST PROVOCATIVE IDEA YOUโVE COME ACROSS IN THE PAST DECADE?
Allow yourself extra time and you can do the work of many alone.
CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT A TRANSFORMATIONAL MOMENT IN YOUR LIFE?
In high school I was a delivery boy at a butcher shop in Brooklyn then later became a deli counter person and then sort of an unofficial manager. I worked there for about 5 years. One day a lady who often shopped there asked me for help and after I assisted her she turned to me and said, โYouโre really good at your job. Keep going the way you are and one day youโll be manager of this place.โ For the rest of the work day I kept staring through this large glass window into the back of the store where all the older butchers and meat packers worked. I kept thinking about how each one told me at one time or another of the big dreams they had. Some claimed they still planned on following through with them. I quit the next day.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO YOU TO LIVE A GOOD LIFE?
When I was younger I used to think a โgood lifeโ meant having what โyou,โ as an individual, wanted. Money, success, fame, etc, but as soon as I got a small taste of that I realized it feels very hollow if the people around you donโt have the means to at least make ends meet. So many hardworking people canโt pay the bills no matter how many hours they work in a week. Having the good life means being able to uplift others that want to do for themselves. I like it when someone gets an opportunity and makes the most of it. Could be the smallest of openings but they squeeze in there and pry that shit open.
COULD YOU SHARE ONE PIECE OF ADVICE ABOUT THE ART OF BEING HUMAN?
Never hold people to the high standards you set for yourself. Youโll be disappointed more often than not. And when you do find those that operate on the same level take note and appreciate rather than be jealous.
WHAT IS YOUR DRIVING QUESTION?
I have severalโฆ.
How big is the universe? Will time travel ever be possible? Will I ever get out of this life alive? Would I trade in my life up to this point to start over again?
ANY BOOKS OR MOVIES YOU RECOMMEND?
Books: โThe Measure of a Manโ by Martin Luther King Jr. โOn Bullshitโ by Harry G. Frankfurt Movies: Amores Perros, Dead Man, Little Odessa, Rocks With Wings (the documentary film) . . . *
THANK YOU, RAE!

The deep blue is a nice variation from the "The Many Faces Of" original. Like them both.

I'm not going to invoice until I have the prints in hand and ready packaged to ship out.
I still have a couple of Many Faces left, which was my favourite one and the one I thought would go first, shows what I know!
Thanks as always to the buyers on here.

In any case it's great to know that they are being appreciated

The Many Faces Of does have a couple remaining, again these will go on the website if no one reserves.
Anyone who has bought a handfinished print before from RAE will tell you just how much work goes into them, they are stunning and very much like originals with just a single black screen on each one. The rest being applied by hand.

It's definitely happened in transit from OI to me as the bent bit on the print correlates with where the cardboard has been folded/bent. I would've doubled up the cardboard on these to avoid this happening tbh (that how Brooklynite did there's iirc) as it's far too thin to fully protect a flat shipped print. I hope other's are more lucky than I've been..
