Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by stang on Jan 17, 2012 16:31:10 GMT 1, hmmm, just noticed that with the sun/mon thing thanks for the heads up. we had only 2 days off work from london around the world with stops in hong kong/la/nyc but that included going to galleries on mon/tue. i wonder if you were able to contact the gallery and tell them you were flying in from hong kong for 8 hours whether they would open up...worth a punt perhaps.
Some do say "Or by Appointment" but probably only if you're gonna splurge 500K on an OG!! Worth a try I suppose

Some of the galleries aren't open on a Saturday either so I figured I would need at least 5 days holiday, probably more to make the trip more enjoyable
I very much doubt Gagosian gallery would open so you can get a stamp

Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by Billy Sport on Jan 17, 2012 17:00:15 GMT 1, I have been thinking about this a lot, pros and cons, the cons are
you will need either a large chunk of time from work taken off, or a lot of separate trips. A few of the galleries arent open saturdays, most arent Monday as has been said on here.
If you're doing Hong Kong and or NYC, LA separately, you'll need a saturday night stay to get the cheaper flights( and I guess the idea is not to spend shed loads of money, otherwise you would have been better off buying one of the OC releases).
Its a lot worse for anyone in Asia or LA as the minimum flying time fro LA is 5.5 hours and Asia must be 10+.
Flights get more expensive closer to the departure date, hotel costs (US and HK), living expenses and travel costs while in the City..
you either have to be a) rich (but then you could just buy a print), b) have a job that allows you to travel (to these destinations during the show) c) no family commitments d) fanatical...
Im still tempted though!

Damien Hirst Spot Prints, by eschiff on Jan 17, 2012 17:46:28 GMT 1, ok, i just got a quote for 1500 that would go the opposite of my original plan and would entail 3 days off work (this doesn't include the european destinations which i could just do on wkends)
Leave thurs for nyc, arrive thurs at noon, go to galleries
leave friday morning for LA, arrive afternoon, go to galleries
leave saturday for hong kong, arrive monday afternoon.
go to gallery tuesday, leave tuesday night arrive in London in time for work wednesday.
can't believe me and my mate are actually considering it. The funny thing is, we keep asking each other how much the print would be worth if we did it, but after doing it, i'd reckon you want to keep it for the experience!

This is prints, not originals...
Eyestorm prints:
Opium - Edition of 500
LSD - Edition of 300
Valium - Edition of 500
Then call Paragon Press who have released at least 3 lots of woodcuts.
Then call Other Criteria who have done these screen prints and the metallic ones.
I assume the new book on spots just covers the originals, not the prints.
Hope this helps.

I put this thought to bed over the weekend,having wracked my brain for about 10 days but now reading you lot I think the fire in my loins has returned...!
Its much more expensive from OZ...cheapest round the world ticket I could find was $3800 but that excluded internal travel within Europe, and then accom. on top...cant be cheap spending a night in Geneva etc...
Last weekend I went down the road to Brisbane to this....
...but it just wasn't the same....

No where near the full amount. Aside from the Eyestorm and Other Criteria ones, Paragon have over the years released 20 or so spot prints in various sizes. These are all documented in the current and forthcoming Contemporary Art in Print books they publish every now and then.
There is the momart Spot print encased in Acrylic, the Etching published in Bregenz last year.
The list goes on, short answer is there are an awful lot of them.

The OC prints look good value (good value if you can afford them that is) Editions of 100, screen print for ยฃ3.3k-ยฃ3.6k.

Maybe. That price for the LSD is pretty ridiculous though. Just saw one sell on eBay recently for 2K usd, which is WAY cheaper than OC prints are now.

Just google Hirst fake prints!!

Try finding an LSD print from a gallery or on here for ยฃ2k, I'd buy it.
I passed on them originally because I spent all my money on booze and women (not sure that's a true statement) more like mortgage, bills etc etc. Although I've always been on the lookout, until the fakes hit the market that is. Even top galleries were passing these through the doors (alleged)
If these float your boat then you have a print you can admire and more importantly, you have piece of mind knowing they were not knocked up in the back room of your local pub.
