New Invader show in Paris, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 10, 2024 11:27:16 GMT 1, I just received the tiles I got on eBay, and hesitating between keeping them sealed and opening them to admire & check everythingโs ok. Any advice from fellow collectors? (Debate in 3, 2, 1โฆ) 100% open then you know if broken or not.
I used a kitchen knife (not too sharp) to guide through the glue on the back so didnโt risk stretching the envelope by pulling it.
Enjoy ๐

NEW (ONGOING ?) INVADER INVASION in LONDON, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 9, 2024 15:55:05 GMT 1, Does this suggest that Heni is going to be the printer for the camo prints? Iโm 99.9% sure the Camo prints have already been printed (by Idem Paris?) as they were at the ISS exhibition, and I donโt recall Heni ever producing an actual x colour screenprint as their production is for digital.
It wouldnโt make any sense letting Heni release the Camo prints from the UK after being a key part in the ISS exhibition in France. Space Shop can easily handle the orders after shipping 000โs of items before.
There might however be another release with Heni on the horizon that will be on dibond again, although a sculpture (like 3D Little Big Space) would be a much better idea.

NEW (ONGOING ?) INVADER INVASION in LONDON, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 8, 2024 0:19:51 GMT 1, Without giving too much away, Invader has placed two new works somewhere around here.
Iโm hoping that the Camo prints are not released via Heni (so theyโre not priced out of reach).

Be fair. User name is 'artcollector' so you can be sure this is a legitimate post. I'm about to PayPal them the ยฃ14k, friends and family as requested. We're all friends here...
Exactly what I thought as well. If they were called โartdealerโ then I would have been suspicious, but itโs reassuring they are a collector.

New Invader show in Paris, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 6, 2024 19:29:52 GMT 1, whats this RESCUE PLASTIC TOY thing hes doing, i love invader but buying a shitload of toys of Ebay and selling them individually in a new invader bag is bit lazy, least cut them up and make new characters, People are now trying to sell them for silly money on the secondary market, not sure how much they cost in the exhibition, if they cheap and something for a kid to buy after a visit fair enough. I could understand people buying them if there was a lucky dip to win one of the actual Invader toys, but the rest look like they are worth 50p.

Goin ๐จ๐ต Street Art โข Print Release โข Art For Sale, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 4, 2024 20:46:28 GMT 1, Actually would have preferred it with her head hold high. Chin up girl! This print is titled "Stop Bullying" you say, and I quote "I support (and fight for) things that I believe are correct and right." Well, you've been picking a fight with me since you joined this forum, so far you've said you don't like the way I speak, called me thick and accused me of having ADHD and or a mental health condition...thanks for that! Maybe time to take the boxing gloves off? You even use a peace symbol as your avatar, maybe change that too? I blocked them after their first post (when they set up another account) and only see their remarks when they are quoted, which are always negative. Not surprised they still behave like this after their original account that they deleted.

George Condo ๐บ๐ธ New Print Release โข Print For Sale, by Acme Thunderer on Jun 3, 2024 19:42:51 GMT 1, I got into this art scene 20 years ago as it was not corporate (but really exciting with new artists), but many of us are turned off by some companies like AA (flogging established artists in their twilight years).
It appears that these AA vetting processes are nothing more than a marketing ploy to contact and build a rapport with collectors so they can spend even more with them. I work in marketing so itโs what I would do if I was them.
They make them feel special thinking they are selected and passed the test. The people who are buying multiple releases from AA (including all their timed releases) have been lured in and are falling for it, although Iโm sure they think it has worked in their favour.
Weโve seen similar tactics employed by Heni when people think they have to buy everything unless they might miss out on something they really want.
Itโs also why they do all these draws / lotteries to build up their contact and client databases - not to be fair and giving everyone an opportunity.
It is 100% clear that AA couldnโt give a toss whether they are resold or not, just as long as the people buying, keep on buying.
Sorry if it upsets any of the AA faithful. For what itโs worth, I am always genuinely happy if someone has got something they really wanted to display on their walls and I definitely donโt begrudge them.
