Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by maroom on Dec 22, 2011 16:08:09 GMT 1, I popped in earlier. Firstly I have to say all are very nice.
I completely agree they're expensive and he's released too many but still very nice all the same.
Reading here there's been the most interest in Lanatoside B and Benzyloxyurea. Both are classic images and I guess unsurprisingly have sold quickly and have already increased in price.
I think the Meprobamate plus Controlled Substances Key Spot set worked really well but you'd need a lot of space to get both on the wall.
My favourite was Vespula Vidua, closely followed by Vipera Lebetina. The PDF doesn't do them justice and I thought they were a great take on the original spots.

Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by redfred on Dec 22, 2011 16:14:02 GMT 1, Martin. Are you saying you have edition 20/100 of Lana? Hi Jd, i did have the 20th Lana print at ยฃ3000 on reserve (not sure if it was actually numbered 20 though), went up to see it this morning and after half an hour of staring at spots! I declined on the purchase, just didn't do it for me, something about the colours maybe, i liked more the Benzy and N-Methyl for the vibrancy and just seemed to be easier on the eye. Anyhow it means there is still the last Lana available at ยฃ3000 for anyone tempted.
That was the one I got, Cathy said it had been on reserve but the buyer had a change of mind so they are at the new price of ยฃ3.6k now.

Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by primetime on Dec 22, 2011 17:10:34 GMT 1, I ended up getting a Benzyl as well, but the lano was very attractive and difficult to pass over. Just wondering if/how other people saw the same dilemma, that was why I asked. I agree with many on the board that all of them are nice but these certainly seemed to be the most popular of the newly released prints.

He's buying his own art at auctions. He's copying other artists' images. He's milking cash cows to death.
But his series of spot prints is aesthetically hitting a very weak spot of mine.
Bought a Lana.

Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by Pattycakes on Dec 22, 2011 23:13:23 GMT 1, These are not bad prints, and I think the price is fair. Would I buy one? No, but that's mainly because I don't really like the spots all that much, saying that a lot of people do, and for the money they are asking (at least on the first 25) they are a good buy. For those who want to know the auction return, I think you'd probably lose 15-20% of your outlay if you sold tomorrow. However, I suspect with the Hirst Hype next year, there will be some rise in his print prices - fyi whatever you misses tells you - size matters!

I sure hope so. I just sent them $4400. They only had the wood block prints so it makes sense that they are tied to Paragon.
You guys are making me nervous on Christmas Eve!

Yes, they are in effect one and the same. There were some problems with the site the other day which may be why it has been taken down. There is nothing to worry about though, it will be back up again. I have ordered my first spot print, looking forward to picking it up in the new year and getting it on the wall in my new house

Good point, looking at my pdf it doesnt show a signature on the front of any of the wood block prints, really need someone who has seen them in the flesh to confirm.
