Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by trasbash on Nov 4, 2011 14:03:06 GMT 1, Wow. Ive never seen so much disgust for a show. Makes me want to visit even more. That said I know photos rarely do a piece any justice but those figurative pieces look incredibly horrific. Im all for encouraging development but surely artists should get feedback on a new style before getting

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by daveart on Nov 4, 2011 15:11:07 GMT 1, After further review of the pictures a few ofnthe figure pieces are really very striking and would allow you to hang them in a home setting and be quite pretty . Not really what most of the faile images bring to mind .. Anyway .. Seems a few people are getting a bit carried away with the negative reactions. Not every art buyer is. 22 year old male .. Maybe these pieces appeal to broader audience and overall help them expand their base and reach.

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by Agent Provocateur on Nov 4, 2011 18:46:57 GMT 1, Think it's all been said before, but my two'penneth worth is... great show, interesting change of style, didn't feel that tight, painterly backgrounds and faces looked very amateurish (straight from the tube, one colour brushed on top of another etc) and they're worse at painting hands than Banksy is at feet!
It's interesting, imo if this show had been put on by an artist we didn't know I think there would have been a much better response, because it's Faile and we all know what they've been doing over many years the new visual language doesn't resonate the same as something we've come to love.
When artists, especially established ones, step away from their typical style there is always going to be a lot more questioning and critiquing. I'd have to agree with some things that have been said about seeing other artists influences in this new work... I could see some Paul Insect, Miss Bugs and Barry McGee with the use of distorted silhouettes, graphic patterns and old book covers.
On the print/price side of things I think it was a master stroke. Two signed exhibition screen prints (notice I'm choosing my words carefully!) with powerful images from their new direction for £45 is pretty damn unheard of for Faile, Laz and most of the other big artists around at the moment.
I know there's been conversations about whether they're posters or prints, my reasoning is why can't they be both!? Laz usually prints one or more show cards for their exhibitions, this time there weren't any, so I presume they thought they'd save some money not printing them and instead do a couple of affordable prints that advertise the show (which makes a bit of money as well). And at £45 most people could afford one if they had a chance to get to the show (there's unsigned ones available till the end of December).
Over the past couple of years Faile have released quite a few prints (and blocks) in the medium price range, loads of og's and smaller editions in the high price range, and now these two editions that fit in the small price range. Loads of us have vocally or silently wished/hoped particular artists would release something that was more affordable as money's tight and I think Faile/Laz should be commended here.
The problem is when we hope for more reasonably priced art we sort of expect it to be exactly the same quality/imagery as the artists more expensive stuff. So when they're mass produced lithographs (Banksy 'Forgive us...' and 'Petrol Bomb'), high edition numbers or screen prints advertising a show we're disappointed. There's probably a couple of good reasons tho, one being it keeps a good hierarchy of work and doesn't p**s established high paying customers off. The other being the economics of time and money, the artists want to give something back to their fans but need to bear in mind how much time and money will be spent on it (when compared to creating their more expensive work).
Hmmm think that's more than two'penneth worth! Apologies, but I haven't had a good ramble for a while, here's a couple of better shots of the exhibition print I luckily got last night which hopefully shows the quality...
The one thing I did find strange was how empty the PV was, I've been to a few at Rathbone and they're usually heaving. As most of the book covers seemed to have been sold prior to last night my assumption is the 'Private View' evening is no longer the opening night of most shows. PV evenings for the larger galleries now seem to be geared to the 'fans', allowing us an early look at the show whilst supping a few free beers, then advertising it all over the internet by discussing it and showing photographs. Most of the larger galleries must have an earlier viewing for buyers with large wallets to attend and have a chance to buy something.
Ahhh stop typing... NOW!

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by xmyart on Nov 4, 2011 18:56:43 GMT 1, Lets just say, as there is not ONE of them on ebay, everyone that got one is obviously pretty happy to have it. Makes a change to see that!! Or that they are availiable and unlimited so no need to try and flip ? Of course the signed ones is a different storey, give it time once the hype has built a little more then you will see a couple on the Bay, wait for a few more people to ask to buy this on here for over cost , . I need this print in my life , wow great in the flesh , Willing to trade for unsigned bansky , will swap for any on list below,. all that kinda stuff,
Hunter mate, im pretty sure you know i wasnt suggesting the open edition that will be available for 2 months, is going to be flipped.
I meant the signed ones, thought that was fairly bloody obvious dude. Will try to be clearer when stating the patently obvious in future

I was hoping to get a book cover and had emailed for the list/prices well in advance so them being sold out before the preview was kinda annoying. Lesson learnt for next time... Aside from that, I am well happy with my signed print/poster/advert doo-dah which is the same image as one book covers I was after. Nice paper, good printing and signed all for 45 notes - with a couple of free beers, seeing some nice (and frankly, way out of my league) art and meeting a few new forum members chucked in for free
I'll be beside myself if they do something similar for the Invader opening @the Outsiders next month ;D

After the comedown of seeing that top floor room at rathbone place rammed full of beautiful Banksy originals, Faile was a very very dry and dull place compared to the atmosphere at the Sickboy show where people were literally queuing up in the masses just to get in the club-like event which was a waay more exciting, lively show with people like Ben Eine floating around.
Evan Hecox at stolen space was also worth a quick peek if thats your thing...

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by andrewd on Nov 4, 2011 22:02:08 GMT 1, I don't really get all of this fanboy negativity about the Faile show. Upstairs they totally nail the Faile ideal of re mixing images using different sized blocks etc in extremely strong groups of images. Totally outstanding. Really worked for me. Downstairs, well call it the difficult second album or whatever but chapeau, the images really work, it's strong and it's Faile, no doubt about it. This may equate to a challenge to Greg Gossell and Hush as to where they go but really all this negativity is silly.

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by letiss on Nov 4, 2011 23:44:35 GMT 1, I enjoyed the show, how could you not, free beers, good conversation with forum members and a £45 signed print. Happy days. As to the paintings, I barely got downstairs as the work upstairs was excellent and was pretty much a whole show in itself. Seriously even if you didn't like the paintings wouldn't upstairs have made up for it? Unless you had £50k or whatever to spend does it really matter? Even if you didn't like the show, if you bought a print you could have had a cheeky look at the Banksy Kate Moss's and Invader stuff in the Laz backroom. It as surprising though how quiet the launch was, it was mainly the usual suspects and not many other people.

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by volvic on Nov 5, 2011 21:17:32 GMT 1, i think if faile has decided to try out a totally new direction to its collectors then shouldn't that reflect in price? its clearly not as strong as there previous work and if they are in a transitional faze then so be it but why should collectors have to pay over inflated prices just for a name? the work is amateur and i am sure they will home there skills and make it much tighter but don't rip people off in the process. I think if these canvas's were 8-10k each then they would have flown out the door's and collectors would be excited to have something fresh and new on there walls by artists who are pushing the boundaries but 25-40k? computer says no...

No price list as far as I know, but as mentioned earlier in the Thread, it's pretty easy : small format 10K, medium 28K, large 40K

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by motor on Nov 6, 2011 15:59:00 GMT 1, First of all as few mentioned here I have to admire the guts the guys have to put up a show like this. I love the artists who are 'pushing' it. And Faile has been doing it for years. It doesn't work all the time but it works. It is quite refreshing reading so much about the actual show. Even if the opinions are so diverse. Great feedback for Faile boys. They are old enough to take it. I did have a second look after the preview evening and I wasn't disappointed at all. As I said I do like it the and although not the best from Faile I have seen, there are some wonderful pieces on display (even the new ones). Second floor is absolutely fantastic. Well worth to have a look. However I wasn't not sure about the pricing of some pieces. Great move with the release of signed and unsigned unlimited version of the print show posters and book covers were priced perfectly well but I would liked to see the other pieces priced a bit lower. But that's just me, at the end of the day I don't have a gallery to run or art to show...
Reading some posts - it's nothing new but there are some members with a chip or two on their shoulders over here.

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by alexnh123 on Nov 6, 2011 19:22:29 GMT 1, text doesn't even fit on the poster. lol... you couldn't make this sort of comment up.
You don't think the Y of the word gallery, and the F of the word Fragments should have been the correct size to fit onto the poster, of course i've already considered, is this the whole point, being a fragment of the word if you will, but the background text, and imagery chopped off does that job, they were the 'facts'. looked rushed to me, using closest available screen, or closest available paper size, and the whole thing stinks of a whole new layer on Steve's part to milk more money for extra add on sales. I think someone is getting greedy, and day by day further out of touch with the community that he might have once been part of.

They could have sold them for at least £200, but did a really great thing.

Fragments of Faile - Lazarides London - 3rd Nov, by mouser on Nov 6, 2011 21:15:46 GMT 1, Meh, people like moaning, if it was old style faile, they'd moan it was nothing new, if its new faile, they'd moan it wasn't old style, if laz sold the print for £500, it'd be too expensive, or alienating people who couldn't go to the show.
Similar line in bollocks starting with the expected banksy release.... if any of these things really wind you up enough, just step back and remind yourself that no-one is forcing you to go to shows, like artists work, buy prints etc... If your life truly is being ruined by a negative reaction to an art show, be thankfull that's the worst of your worries, and mabye put some thought into a new hobby?
I'm not a big fan of BMW cars but really dont feel the need to sit on BMW forums and constantly tell people how rubbish the cars and dealers are.

I think someone is getting greedy, and day by day further out of touch with the community that he might have once been part of.... And you only came to this realisation today? ;D
"Lazarides - selling sh1t to idiots since 1999"
