Prints in Tubes, by bonesy on Feb 3, 2009 14:14:11 GMT 1,
I communicate and ask questions with galleries, artists all the time. I just personally wouldnt ask them to replace something that I (or my brother) damaged; thats just me.

Prints in Tubes, by bonesy on Feb 3, 2009 14:08:01 GMT 1, This is a debate Ive had on here many times. There should be no "extras" produced to replace limited edition prints which are damaged in transit. If the artist would like to replace a numbered 57/100 with an AP thats obviously fine, but a new 57/100 should never be produced.
I used to have this argument years ago on here about the "extra" POW prints. Everyone defended their practices until the "backdoor" prints escaped.
I understand the efforts of print houses to replace prints damaged in transit but a limited edition item should be exactly that. The integrity of the limited edition run should come first and foremost, thus the collectible nature of limited edition items. The artist produces X amount but that dosent mean they all survive "mint" as time goes on.

WTB: Shepard Fairey "Arab Woman" on metal or wood, by bonesy on Feb 2, 2009 23:44:01 GMT 1, It weighs around 3 lbs or so i would guess, not very heavy. Of the 3 HPMs on wood of this image there was one sold at LeVine, one at MK Gallery, and my guess would be the third was sold at Stolen Space. Good luck.

WTB: Shepard Fairey "Arab Woman" on metal or wood, by bonesy on Feb 1, 2009 20:13:47 GMT 1, Those bamboo pieces Shepard did for the benefit are great looking, very clean, and nice and big (there was also a Monkey Pod I believe). The HPM wood and silkscreen wood versions are the normal 18x24" size. Great purchase T&P

WTB: Shepard Fairey "Arab Woman" on metal or wood, by bonesy on Feb 1, 2009 12:16:58 GMT 1, On wood, at this time... around $1200-$1300, at the highest.
Shepard produces 2 wood versions. Straight silkscreen on wood and HPM on wood (collage background on wood which is then silkscreened on top of). There are typically 3 (including one AP) of each version if the version is produced for this image, both versions on wood were produced for Arab Woman. Reatail on each is higher than the $1200-$1300 mentioned above. In all reality it will be very very difficult to find one. Good luck.

This provenance sounds like its going to be the pink Laz receipt provided at the time of purchase, which I dont think is going to say 'signed'.

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by bonesy on Jan 30, 2009 11:37:50 GMT 1, I had unsigned prints from LA numbered in the 20's. The LA prints werent even ready until the 3rd day of the exhibition. They had the raw piles right from the printer in the back room, which was in view, and were getting peoples orders together (that they had taken a couple days before). At the time they were distributing them none of the prints in the pile were signed. These were signed after the show. I had some in the 20's and a friend had some numbered in the 30's, this number is in the middle.

Bonhams โข Art Auctions โข London ๐ฌ๐ง, by bonesy on Jan 29, 2009 23:46:57 GMT 1, Why is the seller of the six LA prints (which incidentally are all the same number) not selling them as a set - surely they would be worth more rather than splitting them up? I've seemed to always see sets sell at a discount to individual prints except in few instances. Figure, when you are selling them together you are greatly limiting your potential bidders.
Especially with the money many are willing to spend in todays market. I do think they will go for above estimate too.

Its a full LA set that is signed (set #30). It must have been signed after the show, somehow.The only signed LA prints to come to light before this were the Printer Proof sets from Moderm Multiples.

Keith Haring for sporty art fans, by bonesy on Jan 28, 2009 22:39:29 GMT 1, saw this on retrotogo.com. Keith Haring has designed a SIGG water bottle, looks like for cyclists. There's more info at www.sigg.com/shop/index.php/en/design but looks like a bargain at ยฃ13.99: really?
He's working on an edition of these with new ones released every couple months.

KAWS Originals!!!!, by bonesy on Jan 25, 2009 23:34:19 GMT 1,
Ammazing, those were selling for little over cost after they were released, as were the dissected toys. When did the dissected stuff get so pricey?
I love Kaws's bus stop stuff from 10 years ago (probably rather own one of those than anything else by artists in this genre). I chekced out his recent NYC sponge-bob and head mold extravaganza, it was alright.

BRP overseas lottery result, by bonesy on Jan 22, 2009 16:52:36 GMT 1, that's right, stab brp in the back because you weren't drawn the news of the print was reported world wide & there were 900 entries what did you expect?
What are you talking about? Everyone on this thread sounds civil to me.

BRP overseas lottery result, by bonesy on Jan 22, 2009 11:01:54 GMT 1, When its just an email entry with a name there is a huge possibility for dedicated people entering many times. I think having people include unique credit card numbers and mailing address's is a good way to cut back on this.

David Choe print for $20 ?, by bonesy on Jan 16, 2009 10:44:51 GMT 1, I bought a small stack of these Id guess close to 2 years ago, along with 2 other similarly priced Choe prints (girls fighting and another). They arrived seriously damaged but they sent me replacement ones. There is no way these are limited to 100. The item description used to say 100, they made many many more than that. Not good quality, but still only $20.

Shepard Fairey "Jumps The Shark" , by bonesy on Jan 8, 2009 22:34:26 GMT 1, If it was a cheesy play on his most famous image as a cash grab for himself then I would def agree with you, but I dont think he'd ever do that. It took him no time to do (Im sure) and will generate cash for a good cause so I dont see it as jumping the shark.
