Zhao ๐ธ๐ฌ Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by highly framable on Oct 23, 2012 18:21:57 GMT 1, thanks for the kind words one and all.
just to further clarify (as we are still new and terrible at explaining these things, sorry!):
For ยฃ29 you will be getting the diptych. 2 prints. "front" and "back".
The 2 prints will have the same number (xx/66)
There will be 66 sets for this edition.
GREAT VALUE? YEAH!

yes, despite the many pre-order requests (sorrrry, we really would love to but have to be fair to all!) we really don't think there should be any problem for those who try to score the set during release time.
most of our releases takes days, if at all, to sell out...
we're not exactly POW...
still a long long long way to go...
but we're trying!

Will re-examine when mental daughters aren't running around, and post up some pics.

and yes, as with all zhao's prints, these are very crude creations!
he wants every print to be his and not some printer's or machines' (though that would've saved us lots (and lots!) of time and money)
hope you like them enough to give them space on your walls!

Translation: (prints) Received. Really like them! Ya! Ya! Ya!
YA!!!
For those who are wondering, Ai's not being nice/poite. Ai says what he means.
He didn't feel much (and was pretty harsh) on zhao's "Made In China" till the last iteration which he finds interesting...
He likes the Chairman (but didn't find it "high" enough).
So we are over the moon with the constant positive comments from him on this piece throughout its creation.

Zhao ๐ธ๐ฌ Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by highly framable on Jun 4, 2013 16:02:09 GMT 1, first off, a huge thank you to james2g for your comment! we were worried sick that the image did not get any reaction from this board! (except for the kind pms and the "likes" from some of you, thank you so much)
yes it can look terrible to you. zhao wants something as simple as possible to address his feelings about the killings and bombings around europe and us. and how we victimised some yet criminalised others, when everyone is suffering and everyone is guilty.
like a traffic sign, zhao wants the piece to remind us that every victim was a culprit, and every culprit, victim.
and yes, we worship ai weiwei till no end. we are planing a sleepover at ai's place in beijing soon.
like school girls around bieber. the man is just so damn inspiring.
but no, true believers are not embarrassed at all. zhao will keep sending work to ai for his criticisms and endorsements. This process has now become a driving force for him.
And if Ai said such wonderful words about the piece, we cannot help but to shout about it.
"la la la!",as ai would say
again, thank you james2g!

Zhao ๐ธ๐ฌ Print Release โข Show News โข Art For Sale, by Dr Plip on Jun 4, 2013 18:30:13 GMT 1, Firstly, I like the message and the idea for the image. The soldier could (IMHO!!!) be tidied up a bit to give him more definition though. But Zhao might like it rough.
Have you considered printing multiple versions of the same image on the print, in a Warhol style? It might reinforce the message that violence begets violence, yet we're only really hurting ourselves.
Or maybe the throwing hand could be coming off one side of the image, and reappearing behind the soldier?
Please excuse the rough image. I don't have Photoshop software. I tried cutting and pasting it, but it just ending up f_cking my laptop screen.
