Secret Postcard sale - Pure Evil, Mr Scruff @ £45, by speebe on Jan 7, 2012 21:07:22 GMT 1, Noise Festival - Secret Postcard Sale: £45 for an original artwork.
noisefestival.bigcartel.com/products?page=2
This is a not-to-be-missed opportunity to purchase unique artwork, in time for the gift-giving season!
NOISEfestival.com’s Secret Sale consists of original “one-off” postcard artworks created by leading artists including Red or Dead fashion label founder Wayne Hemingway, legendary singer-songwriter Elvis Costello, Academy Award winning Aardman Animations, Poet Laureate Carol Ann Duffy, as well as Mancunian DJ and Producer Mr Scruff, alongside emerging creative talent from the NOISEfestival.com website.
The secret is, the exclusive artworks are signed on the back so buyers don’t know the identity of the artist until you’ve made your purchase.
Each art postcard costs just £45 (plus 20% VAT), regardless of whether it has been made by a famous name or an emerging artist, so you could pick up a unique piece of art that’s worth much more!
All proceeds of the sale will go direct to the NOISE arts Charity, currently receiving no core funding for its work in promoting new talent. This fundraiser will help the organisation to continue their dedicated work to support original talent in Architecture, Fine Art, Moving Image, Photography, Fashion, Product Design, Word and Music.
Charity Number: 1107181
VAT Number: 856 0243 33
This sale was set up a couple of years ago but I think I'm one of the few people who have bought something... So I thought I'd share my dirty little secret with the forum.
You can spot a few of the artists easily such as Matt Sewell, Pure Evil, Jon Burgerman, Stuart Semple etc but there are a lot of great images left.
Artist List: noisefestival.bigcartel.com/artists
The two I bought are in this line up.
I bought one by Fashion Designer: Wayne Hemmingwa & one by Aardman Animations.

Secret Postcard sale - Pure Evil, Mr Scruff @ £45, by speebe on Jan 8, 2012 0:29:20 GMT 1, No worries....
I've known about this for a while now, after buying mine I thought I could pop back and slowly buy them all up, but TBH I'd rather see them get sold and raise some funds...
I also think the Pure Evil is still there...!
Think Panda... but I might be wrong???

Secret Postcard sale - Pure Evil, Mr Scruff @ £45, by maroom on Jan 8, 2012 10:37:38 GMT 1, It's interesting to see what does and doesn't take off - particularly on this site.
I posted this when it was launched in December 2010 but it looks like lots of cards haven't sold.
I've no idea if that's because they're not to people's tastes. Or because they're missing the Banksy or Hirst signatures. Or even if it just needed Pez's hard work to make it a success!
Personally I think there's still lots of good pieces on there and when it launched I bought one of the birds (they're by Dave Sharp) and and another piece by Thomas Martin that's no longer up on the site.
