Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 17, 2023 16:13:56 GMT 1, People still continue to think that low edition sizes correspond to higher values. This is dependent upon image quality, and in the case of times releases, low editions are driven by low demand due to poor images. Ask yourselves, how often do you see wanted threads for a signed Toxic Mary as opposed to a Banksquiat? Why do you think that is? beside that, I think in this particular case other factor drove the demand. 1- not the best time to do a release; most people are on vacation and summer time is not the best time to buy art. 2- The Art Market is in a difficult stage (bear market). 3- edition size of the empresses (2000 pieces per print) teach that hype beats taste. My opinion on this release is that in 2 years WLMS will be much desired than Blossom. Edition size will determinate an increase in prices. A no to unnumbered points 4 and 5. Blizzard may do well on the secondary, I liked it, but the visibility of the canvas grain irritated me to no end.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 17, 2023 16:10:55 GMT 1, Anyone know if any signed posters are still available? Trying to get a friend to collect one . 🙌🏻🙏🏻 Based on selling 100 a day, and they’re being 200 of each, sold from Saturday (some could have been sold on Friday), they should sell out today. I would call before sending them down.

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Poster Bob on Aug 16, 2023 18:08:56 GMT 1, Any Catawiki results should be disregarded. Like quoting the price of a Rolex sold at a flea market. Why do you say that? I often sell or buy on catawiki and I am quiet happy with it Because one of the first steps of analysis is to remove garbage.

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Poster Bob on Aug 16, 2023 17:59:55 GMT 1, This result is pleasant to see but not really relevant. Reminds of 3D little big Space sold at christie ´s. As of today, there are 23 Invader Heni editions for sale on ebay. About half of it are Marilyns. They are today the hardest to sell with a good price as offer remains strong. My understanding of market is that you can get one for arround 5k. A Country Life is currently auctionned on Catawiki . 3 days remaining and it is a 3,7k€ + fees (9%). To me, sales on Catawiki are often a good indicator of market state for an edition. Will post the result Final result : 4300 including fees. Not bad but not crazy. I guess market is arround 4k to 5k for this édition right now Any Catawiki results should be disregarded. Like quoting the price of a Rolex sold at a flea market.

Many times they are included by people who work for the auction house or by the artist themself. Try auctioning some tat at a third-rate house and see if they are interested in it; you may be surpised even if you offer something seen in their sales history.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 15, 2023 13:35:47 GMT 1, Most of them accept a 50 to 80 pounds profit. Disapointing to see that people never learn, easy to get more in one or two years with a 30 euros frame well chosen. Good for foreign buyers like me. It’s very thrilling right now on ebay : you make agressive offers, you get counter offers and you counter the counter offer… At the end of the day you end up with a good fun and 6 posters for not much. Hope this will pay my mortgage and my children studies in a few years (😇) Why do you think you’ll make a profit off of these and that they’ll be desirable when the previous show posters have not appreciated and HENI and Hirst seem fixated on pumping out giclees at all price points? Surely there’s another Fruitful and Forever around the corner.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 14, 2023 15:56:59 GMT 1, These might do numbers between the virtues and empresses (lower end of the difference). Seen a few people looking at the prints. The posters are again another run of 1,000 spread over the 3 designs, so people working there stated. So 2,000 in total, 666 across each one. Fair queue for them today including one guy buying 'one for my mum'. I witnessed a French bulldog get a print yesterday.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 13, 2023 23:57:24 GMT 1, So is nobody getting one? I'm tempted in the hope I end up with a unique work!! If the comments on Instagram and the lack of interest on here is anything to go by these just don’t seem popular. This high gloss finish really doesn’t seem a winner either. They’ve certainly been pushing them though as that’s all I keep seeing on Insta. We shall find out soon enough if these really have bombed. I actually wouldn’t mind one myself.. I have seen them in person and the glare really is an issue on the black and white works, especially those without the paint splashes. Seeing the grain of the canvas in the giclee is an odd choice that doesn’t sit well with me.

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by Poster Bob on Aug 10, 2023 20:52:09 GMT 1, Earlier today on Artnet... a very strong result for a copy of Heni Invader Red Shot Marilyn. $13,000 hammer. …yet there is still one sitting unsold on eBay for £3k… And it will sit there because the seller is insanely shady and insists on cash or bank transfer only for a £3k piece. I gave up on dealing with him and I live 15 minutes away. DO NOT buy from him.

Ai Weiwei Avant Art Releases 2023, by Poster Bob on Aug 10, 2023 15:28:35 GMT 1, Y'all should just collude and set the prices here. UAA members were the majority of people who bought it anyway. Let's start the traditional way: I've been informed of a five-figure sale at a Mayfair gallery. Don't ask for a source or an iota of proof.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 10, 2023 15:25:53 GMT 1, The market is in horrific shape. Anyone who is well versed in it would be very weary of such a large outlay on poor images. I've said it in relation to other releases, but I think that HENI and Hirst will be humbled by the sales figures. I await them with baited breath and hope that they will drive them away from shiny finishing and towards the creation of a more higher-end product. your prediction on edition size? Clueless tbh, but I would not be surprised if the majority of them end up being editions of 200-300. Best case scenario for HENI right now would be to sell 50% of the volume from The Virtues and I do not see it happening at all.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 10, 2023 15:05:32 GMT 1, any forecast on edition size? I guess in the 500 for the h13 1-2-3-4 and much less for others These open editions always sell >1,000 each and I don’t think this will be different, despite the views of the minority audience here (including me). The release has been promoted heavily at a highly visible London show alongside $100k+ works and to the audience for those works, they’ve spent a fortune on targeted social media ads (its all over my socials at least), and the Philips audience (plus many galleries) will not hesitate to buy multiple complete sets.

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 10, 2023 12:37:35 GMT 1, Any reason these are listed in $$$ and not £££ ?? Sounds like some sort of tax avoidance scheme. They probably put all their millions directly in to a US bank account so don't pay as much UK tax as they should do. Yet another reason why I don't like Heni. Would you dislike them even more if you knew that the owner was red-pilled?

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 7, 2023 22:28:45 GMT 1, If its in your pocket, get a currency!
I had a currency but sold it pretty early on for $13k to fund some other purchases.
Looking at a few more random pieces right now including trying to track down a copy of "No News Today" from World Aids Day back in 2006 or so if anyone has one stored away...
Or I'll just wait and hope for another real, paper print in the next 1-2 years. No real rush as my walls are currently full anyway!
If you're after a new Hirst print on paper it might be a bit of a wait. According to "Art Collectorz", his last release on paper was in 2016. (Of course I could be wrong here)

Damien Hirst • Where the Land Meets the Sea, by Poster Bob on Aug 3, 2023 16:19:17 GMT 1, Quite clever of Heni to tie in with Phillips for this release. Don’t underestimate the volumes Phillips will be able to shift for them. I don’t see the final edition numbers being as small as people may think due to this. I think that with the state of the market and the poor image quality (only the Richter-Longos appeal to me), that the edition sizes on these will be very low. I keep seeing it everywhere, that new editions are just not selling well at source.

Banksy Show • Cut & Run • Glasgow , by Poster Bob on Jul 30, 2023 18:26:31 GMT 1, Is a walk up ticket still an option or am I not likely to get entry? Trying to find a way to get to this. When you get to the museum there’s a sign on the left telling you when the next walk-ups are available for. The times were better than the close-to-midnight times I had.
