Faile • Dog Prints, All Editions , by jones27 on Feb 19, 2010 18:10:58 GMT 1, I cant remember a time (excluding from source) when you could pick up an NYC Faile for under 1k. They seem to only change hands less these days.

new Faile print at Laz, by jones27 on Feb 18, 2010 17:22:58 GMT 1, That is sweet. But why the bloody high price. If only our pay packets had the same inflation as Failes over the past 3 years.

The Faile Bast Deluxx Fluxx Arcade, by jones27 on Feb 12, 2010 17:19:29 GMT 1, Deluxx Fluxx is just brilliant - I nearly fell down the stairs. I didn't feel the retrospective at Rathbone said enough, 10 years of faile could have been so much better. Some stuff was quite special but only 1 floor. It needed to be bigger.
Agreed. I felt the inclusion of Challenger and the papermonster Fight Vanity was simply to make up the numbers. The canvases are great but some prints from the golden era (2006) were needed.
But its all about the Greek St exhib for me.

The Faile Bast Deluxx Fluxx Arcade, by jones27 on Feb 11, 2010 19:44:43 GMT 1, Had a quick visit. The Faile/Bast Arcade was fun. Lots of 8 bit love on the ground floor with shoot em ups and a race car console (all covered in paste ups). Some great imagery on the side of the machines, particularly the pretty girl getting a piggy bank off Faile Dog. The machines are 12k ! There was a shooter called 'Waiting for you', it featured (fresh) imagery of a girl shooting another - Im praying this gets released as a print !
Loved the basement, an oasis of red and green offsets. Feeling the 3D paste ups (esp 'everything under the sky') and the table football. Apparently there were 3D glasses but the illusion worked perfectly well without. The colours and smell of fresh ink/paint had threatened a little dizzy spell, so I departed for Part 2.
Quick walk up Rathbone for 'A Decade of Faile'. Ground floor action of boxes, prayer wheels, massive canvases and various prints. Hightlight being 'There were no words' canvas and the Jesus Tiger Study (am a 10 ways fan)..Also cool seeing the older circa 99 prints....V.cool exhib (esp the arcade)
Also funny hearing Steve Laz phone up Faile and asking them who the boxers are...
Apologies for not taking pics, Im sure loads will appear soon.

Bast • The Wig Print, by jones27 on Jan 19, 2010 11:59:08 GMT 1, The only thing I ever liked of Bast was Pistol Woman. It had attitude with a hint of mortality (the bullet holes). But his recent protraits I feel are cold, lazy, ugly and dont say anything. Im much more attracted to Supine. His work has some narrative, emotion, warmth and beauty.

Wish Supine would get a move on with his forthcoming PM print.

José Parlá Print Release - Elms Lesters - 5th Dec, by jones27 on Dec 18, 2009 11:54:42 GMT 1, I take my words back about initially dissing this release. The WTL has really grown on me. The warmth and beauty really is captivating. Im hoping to bag one on the secondary (in the hope someone has overspent at Christmas). Think I may pop over Elms on my lunch break to have a proper look.

Banksy - No Ball Games (GREEN), by jones27 on Dec 14, 2009 20:07:21 GMT 1, The way I see it is Pow released a grey version for the UK. And the green lottery is more for those not in the UK. It kinda makes sense and fairer on those not able to reach the shop (due to living in other countries). It cant be a coincidence that most winners (on here at least) are living abroad. Since when was London the UK? We're not that small of a country you know, especially when less than 24 hours notice is given. I'm trying so hard not to rant so please, no more unconsidered posts.
Oh piss off Ross. Anyone living in the UK could reach London with 48 hours notice (if they really wanted to).

It kinda makes sense and fairer on those not able to reach the shop (due to living in other countries). It cant be a coincidence that most winners (on here at least) are living abroad. Hope that's not true as it's very unfair on those who don't live anywhere near London. Not everyone can change their plans at the drop of a hat to travel to London to wait in queue overnight in the freezing cold to purchase a print (something that is not even guaranteed if you have to travel several hours). I hope everyone was given a fair opportunity in the lottery for the green NBG. Although at the mo it seems there is a substantial number of winners from the US. I would love to know how the draw was conducted...
I guess its better for the art to be as global as possible and not just confined to livingrooms within a 200 mile radius of E1. Of course POW cannot advertise the green as sorely for overseas collectors (as we'd all claim to have second homes abroad - for one reason). And arguably those who flip (within days) are living in the UK. Im probably wrong but cant help a half baked conspiracy theory.

Banksy • No Ball Games GREY, by jones27 on Dec 10, 2009 17:56:06 GMT 1, It would lovely if POW followed Red Propellers method. Release a bw unsigned edition which is available for 2 days and the amount of buyers will determine its edition size. One per person. And the person to correctly guess the edition size will win a limited coloured edition. They would make shite loads of money and we all get a Banksy on the wall.
