Shepard Fairey - quick interview, by daveart on Nov 7, 2016 15:48:47 GMT 1, love him or hate him he is a smart well spoken guy. I personally wouldnt put the current political pieces on my wall as i dont find them appealing but i think he is an important part of the conversation. I mostly respect him for admitting this little gem:
"I'm a capitalist pig like everybody else but i still think its possible to be a capitalist and have some compassion and not leave the world and humanity in worse shape than when you arrived.."
I do see that he has that problem right.. down with the man! but he is the man.. ha. down with capitalism! but he is a capitalist. probably flying a private jet by now and living in 5 stars on the road. But he also does have compassion and speaks out for things he believes in and I give him that latitude in his career.
ok, not trying to not make a political statement here but still also express some respect for Mr. Fairey.
annnndd..... discuss ...

Faile โข Dog Prints, All Editions , by daveart on Oct 27, 2016 14:05:55 GMT 1, WOOF - good question - No, we didnt get that far. I am guessing that like many old FAILE prints there is number on the back but I did not confirm that. However, given the paperwork, calm responses from the seller, and a quick email to Laz to confirm the sale and that the original purchasers name on file matches the paperwork shown - i was convinced enough to throw my offer into the ring.. I'll threw a question out to FAILE as well to see if they would elaborate on this piece but I am guessing that will be a long process.. Is the Coa in any way tied to this specific print? I.e. Does it say print 1/3 and does the dog have numbering. Otherwise what good is the coa?

Faile โข Dog Prints, All Editions , by daveart on Oct 26, 2016 15:28:04 GMT 1, To be fair to the seller - I have seen a scan of a letter from LAZ that does state and confirm the information provided by seller in this thread. This is very nice and I guess something that happened back in the day before everything blew up as it has. I think FAILE 's team could be critiqued for not getting this in their book as they do list a large number of unique and small editions from that period.
Side Note : I like when the forum works like this in exchange of information and overall learning for everyone. No one has even been called a nasty name yet on this thread! Has civility returned to the forum ??

Faile โข Dog Prints, All Editions , by daveart on Oct 26, 2016 2:57:19 GMT 1, sorry Kingz but I am not feeling this... you say you have paperwork .. but then say you cant show the paperwork ? so, my 'opinion' and still willing to be shown that i am incorrect .. is that this is from the normal edition. still a cool piece just needs to be sold for what it is. or proven to be what it is. i see no reasonable reason why the provenance cannot be shown.

Faile โข Dog Prints, All Editions , by daveart on Oct 23, 2016 19:36:44 GMT 1, really great FAILE piece. Those who have seen me around these parts know I have a weakness for them
That said i would caution that maybe there is some terminology here that needs to be careful with..
FAILE Dog : Shimmering Red - Has had multiple releases - each release has been an edition of 10.
I suspect - and I would love to see the paperwork and picture of back of print to prove otherwise as this would be an important and interesting small edition - I suspect that this is would be better described as a print from the 3rd Edition - and that Edition had 10 prints in it. The FAILE Prints and Originals book shows this clearly on page #190.
Still a cracking cool piece.. but 3rd edition is very different than edition of 3 .. so, anyway, good luck to all parties and i'll be checking back to see if the provenance shows this as an special edition of 3 .. as that would make me a potential buyer

WTB Swoon, by daveart on Sept 20, 2016 15:02:56 GMT 1, hi all, thought i would put out a feeler for a Swoon piece. Looking for original pieces. Prefer pieces that have a decent amount of color in them both on the paper and on the background. I am not looking for prints or unsigned pieces.. so anyway, shoot me a PM and let me know what you have and price. I am USA just FYI for shipping considerations.

FAILE "Enjoy The Ride" Print Release, by daveart on Aug 30, 2016 14:32:19 GMT 1, these are great. and i am a long time FAILE fan and supporter but i just gotta call something out. is there some alignment problem with the left leg of the wolf/dog /guy on the bench. that brown line goes up and misses the black pants like the leg ends in mid air?
i would think any Chicago fan or peal jam fan or FAILE fan would jump on these. fun cool piece.

FAILE - HAPPENS EVERYDAY - SOLD, by daveart on Aug 4, 2016 13:47:43 GMT 1, Such a flipper! Maybe not on this Faile, but you have flipped a Miss Bugs, Eelus and a Pez recently. You are a member I avoid. Good luck with your future flips.
The thing is 9 years old surely that's just 'selling' which is why the whole site as a "Sales" section. Is there something else going on here or just venting at this sales thread - 'member to avoid seems like an overly harsh reaction to a sales thread on a nine year old piece of art..

Faile "Almost Rapture" Print Release, by daveart on Jul 29, 2016 13:06:25 GMT 1, I guess someone was too butt hurt by my last post and had to take it down. i cant believe i am wasting my time on this but just in case some new collector that might be impressionable by this crap on here is reading.. i'll try to provide a strong counter point.
1. classic fail? total moronic statement. - These prints are based on massive canvases that hung at the Brooklyn museum for a good while in 2015. Those canvases are probably the best FAILE pieces i have ever scene and if you like FAILE at all these prints are worth your time. or did your mean - 'oh they pity, i cant buy these and make some money in the next 60 days' right, now i understand the critique.
2. FAILE has had multiple prints in the past that the bickering crowd has labeled a failure. Go find the thread from when they issued the box set and people howled about it. and then suddenly. sold out. your accusations apply for every under appreciated print that sold out?? i dont buy it and its reckless.
3. These reckless posts sadly influence new collectors and are really unfounded and irresponsible.
4. having been to the FAILE studio i can tell you first hand it is not stacked top to bottom with unsold prints.
i hope the moderators find this post less offensive - or at least less offensive than people accusing a well known leading artist in the scene of fraud.

Faile "Almost Rapture" Print Release, by daveart on Jul 27, 2016 18:14:12 GMT 1, so, Dwight ... the t-shirt comes out when ? "Comparing Faile to Banksy is dumb. But comparing dumb people in similar circumstances works."
FAILE has put their time in. curated shows around the world. put out work from uniques to open editions etc. They will have some hits and some misses but overall they have been cranking out cool stuff for 10 + years and i think they will be for another 10 + years. If you like it buy it and hang it. not a huge risk either way.

JASON ZENGA - Kaws Running Chum Silkscreen Set - darkcity, by daveart on Jul 18, 2016 19:09:55 GMT 1, i am not an expert on .. well.. anything really.. but here's another 2 cents. i got messed about in a fake art deal years back. one thing that saved my a$$ was that in paypal i actually used my credit card to pay. Paypal was a total complete waste of time - however, i contacted the credit card company and they have fraud coverage as part of your annual fee. They told me if there was a police case opened they would pretty much immediately refund the money. As i was not the only one impacted the person selling the fake art was eventually arrested for fraud. I called the police department in that city and they gave me a case number. I called the fraud department at the credit card company and gave them the case number. My next statement had a reversal of my charge - no other questions asked. Paypal would still be hassling me over this.. they were worthless. in fact - sorry i am on a roll now- they told me that the person involved had been on their watch list for a while for fraudulent activity. i went total nuts on that.. like 'how can you process payments when they are already under watch' - they basically said 'hey this is America - you are innocent until guilty and if we shut off the account too soon then we are the bad guys' oh whatever.. they annoyed the hell out of me.. anyway, just wanted to say -- paypal does offer some protection - but basically until you get proof of the fraud - ie. a police involvement - they did not seem too interested - and neither did the CC company. So, bottom line to all of this if you get messed about by the seller and want your $$ back - if you can at least get the cops to call the guy and maybe open the smallest investigation - you may get some faster movement from the financial institutions.

Dolk Rip On / Rip Off May 24th , by daveart on Jun 15, 2016 13:59:45 GMT 1, when i read these threads critiquing artist selection of work for release or critiquing their new body of work i start to think 'what if the internet chat board system had been around in previous generations.' imagine your critique say of Warhol's camouflage series or duchamp's The Fountain. or closer in what were your thoughts on FAILE's pieces of FAILE - so many critiqued and said it was the end ..etc. the future is pretty hard to predict and its just so easy to have an opinion and type it out quickly. i get that .. i suppose i even encourage it.. just keep it civil - and here's my opinion. any artist working hard, putting themselves and their work out there for critique, and trying to be successful and relevant deserves at least your respect.

Anyone else getting bored by urban art?, by daveart on Jun 6, 2016 20:22:34 GMT 1, here are 10 conversation starters if you want to move on from Urban Art and jump back to say the previous few generation of artists that would be well worth your time to collect. And while these artists just may be worth your time and money i personally cant see getting up and checking a chat board full of commentary on these artists. and that is really what this is .. entertaining and sometimes informational conversation about what is going on in the world of art around us day to day. So, for those of your so bored you have to move on .. i have prepared for you some lead in conversations as you move up in your collecting from mere urban artists that are boring you to these scintillating leaders of pop and previous art movements. I have carefully selected artists that have work availalble in the sub $20,000 range so you can ditch your Banksy and trade for one of these artists that will thrill and engage you in many future conversations.
1. "Urban ar was so boring I moved on to collecting Ellsworth Kelly pieces and now i am unquestionably losing sleep on whether a red triangle or a blue rectangle should be my next purchase."
2. "Who else thinks Donald Sultan should just more on from Poppies already and start on some other damn flower. and wait .. would that make the poppies more valuable ?"
3. "Can someone tell me which way this Miro Print goes on the wall .. is it blue squiggle up.. or red line down? damn.. i dropeed 15k on this and cant tell how to prop it up on my vanity"
4. "Estate signed Picasso pieces - a steal or a deal ? - those unsigned Banksy prints did so well for me .. "
5. "Regarding Warhol - i have unique opinions that no one in the whole world has thought before. Kind of like the urban art forum and all my interesting insights on Mr Brainwash pieces a few years on.."
6. "I sold my car and two unique DFace test prints to by a $25,000 Alex Katz print and just realized there are like 30 years worth of prints that look just like it .. what should i do now ?"
7. "your help needed on this... Would you save all your money for 55 years to buy one decent original Hirst the day before you die?"
8. "How much will Robert Indiana pieces jump in price when he passes.. which he surely must.. soon.. right ? this is really a good speculation idea because it could be like ages before Shep dies. i cant wait that long to turn a profit."
9. "Help ! - I really want to like this Rauschenberg print .. so, will someone tell me why i should like it so i dont feel like a fool plunking down 15,000 on this piece. It makes me almost miss the days of arguing over the giant mushroom Dolk used."
10. "Stella VS Lewitt - i cant Fing tell them apart after 2 glasses of cheap wine. someone help me get what the F is going on here.. Starting to wish i hadnt bad mouthed all those up and coming stencil artists for being so similar and re using images .. but i'm not going back now.. well, at least until i get a new screen name setup."

FS Mr. Brainwash MBW 1/1 & more, Dolk, by daveart on May 22, 2016 13:55:37 GMT 1, this is an interesting approach. i guess it does say 'happy to take offers'.. but i offered the full asking price on three thinking that would make them 'sold'. i think maybe it should say 'for sale to the highest offer by xyz date and time?' somewhat confusing.. anyway, i'm out. dont like the invisible better offer game ..

MOMO, Faile, Maya Hayuk, Swoon at MIMA Museum, by daveart on Apr 20, 2016 14:21:10 GMT 1, Maya's work looks amazing... must be quite a thrill and challenge to fill a large space like that . FAILE's images on the wall are cool but looks a bit muted with a light color palette..nothing really jumps out of that work which is a bit disappointing. assume that is the times square prayer wheel ?? Swoon looks great as always.. etc..etc.. looks like a great show for all the artists.

D*Face Misprints & Misfits Solo Show, by daveart on Apr 14, 2016 14:27:01 GMT 1, Dface was fun when it was all reasonably priced and you could buy it and hang it without really checking the balance in your account.. these are tricky prices ... understand they are somewhat unique etc.etc. just..well.. ..stuck.. love the pop tart though.

Haring Icons Series, by daveart on Mar 30, 2016 20:17:41 GMT 1, i would agree with the above that the pop shop prints would be a good place to look. there are a number of series that have great colorful images and as mentioned you have two distinct price points -- signed by Keith Haring vs Signed by Estate .. i dont really like to give advice but given a limited budget i would proudly hang an estate signed pop shop rather than not having one.
i have never purchased from this site: gallart.com
but one thing i respect about them is they state a price and they have a wide selection of KH work. This would be a good place to start some research and see that a KH signed pop shop is $18,000 and an estate signed one - same size, good images, etc... is $7,000 .. that's a lot of savings for a signature.. so with the budget stated above you could get 2 or maybe 3 unsigned and make a cool display..
i have no idea if there is upside on artwork at this point. but i think these are really cool and KH artwork is well established... fun to research..etc. i do think if you have some patience and watch auctions the pop shops and icons come up pretty often.

Haring Icons Series, by daveart on Mar 30, 2016 16:19:25 GMT 1, The white icons are a lower edition - 60 i believe.. First KH i ever bought was a white icon dog from Martin Lawrence Gallery NYC. Sold it years later to switch to the colored Icons. If you havent seen them in person the white are very subtle.. depending on the light the embossing almost disappears and looks blank and then you shift position and see the image clearly. this is either really cool .. or just too subtle .. i went the second route and switched to the color icons..

Haring Icons Series, by daveart on Mar 30, 2016 14:42:27 GMT 1, OCFA ---- link says 'Price On Application ' but doesnt have an obvious way to 'application' ... i'm sure everyone is curious what a Icon dog or baby would go for these days...
Tigerblood -- you have to just keep looking.. they pop up in auctions frequently .. full sets are going to be expensive of course - if you find a full set be sure to ensure it has the original box with it - a work of art all on its own. Condition is of course important. and framing.. framing in the 1990's wasnt apparently quite up to today's standards.. i have purchased a few pieces from that era and rarely am impressed with the framing.
I dont know of any COA really.. buying from established gallery or auction is probably the best paper trail you will get.
Note that these are signed on the back by the executor of the estate. I frequently see listings for these that say "Signed" .. well, yes, they are signed.. but not by KH. you probably knew this but felt it was important to add just in case..
Good luck with your search! i know a few members on here have KH Icons..

Urban Visionaries - Are Urban Artists Selling Out?, by daveart on Mar 28, 2016 20:28:49 GMT 1, Ha .. yah... that's me .. wondered if anyone would ever find those. well, hopefully doesnt sound to over simplified. I did those videos to support the art show we do here in Des Moines, Iowa. I'll be putting on another show this summer in Des Moines- free to public - free beer on opening night (thought that might get your attention) etc. All part of an Art Week here in town that focuses on local art venues and artists.. i have been promoting this for a few years in town and has been a fun process.
This year the show will feature some great Haring work, Shepard Fairey, some Banksy Pieces, FAILE, Chevrier Originals, maybe some other items thrown in. Show will run from June Wed June 22nd - Sunday evening.. all in small public downtown art gallery..
The whole event i have been pushing for our town is :
www.artweekdesmoines.com
which leads to the big event
www.desmoinesartsfestival.org/ -- this is recognized as one of the best public art festivals in the world.. check it out.. hosted around one of the best free sculpture gardens in the world.. its really mind blowing ..
i'll maybe post some information about the show in June..
