Rammellzee x Futura x Mr. Len, by twist65 on Apr 1, 2015 12:57:15 GMT 1, Agree Coach, am hoping its a separate 12" square print, signed not printed sig. Perfect for a cheapo frame job. If it's any different though its not the end of the world at that price..

Rammellzee x Futura x Mr. Len, by twist65 on Apr 1, 2015 12:40:28 GMT 1, Agreed that is a total bargain - thanks Delloy!
Thats 2 legends in 1 hit, have been meaning to grab this Rammellzee interview on vinyl for a while, have just picked it up with the futura print / vinyl. I need a better understanding of Gothic Futurism! Looking forward to receiving both..
www.vfeditions.com/product/view/210
From the blurb -
Legendary hip-hop MC and graffiti artist Rammellzee was utterly unique. A friend and adversary of Jean-Michel Basquiat, with whom he recorded the seminal and hugely influential ‘Beat Bop’(a highlight of Charlie Ahearn’s film Style Wars), Rammellzee's graffiti and art work are based on his theory of Gothic Futurism, which describes the battle between letters and their symbolic warfare against any standardizations enforced by the rules of the alphabet.
Rammellzee performed in self-designed masks and costumes of different characters which represented the "mathematical equation" that is Rammellzee. On the basis of his Gothic Futurism approach, he described his artistic work as the logical extension into a new phase which he calls Ikonoklast Panzerism.
Mo’ Wax boss James Lavelle had been introduced to Rammellzee in NY by Futura and had flown him to London with the intention of collaborating on an early UNKLE record with Major Force (the result of which was ‘Rock On’, which then because a collaboration with Beastie Boys/Beck producers, the Dust Brothers).
“He was my favorite rapper,” says Lavelle, “having recorded the seminal track ‘Beat Bop’ - released, produced and designed by Jean-Michel Basquiat - arguably the greatest and most influential rap record of all time.”

Martin Whatson Toucan Print , by twist65 on Mar 26, 2015 20:33:27 GMT 1, No need to sell to real collectors on a forum that probably has the most Whatson fans you will find anywhere, when you can flip at a million % mark-up to Santa, Gandalf and the Caramel bunny.

Gallery have not paid for a consignment sent, by twist65 on Mar 26, 2015 19:34:34 GMT 1, Well done Zanda, persistance pays off and always good to see the forum helping out. Some good advice was posted on here. Chasing up debtors is defo a pain that most can do without. I see Opus still have 3 of your works listed, hope they play fair with you next time!

Just keep chasing and making some noise, and if all else fails send them a CCJ, they will no doubt pay it before it goes to court but keep you waiting as long as possible.

Bast / Paul Insect / Rostarr - Cocurata 'Extraction' Launch, by twist65 on Mar 20, 2015 17:04:00 GMT 1, Worth checking the Cocurata tumblr thingy for a Friday drool - lots of old and new Bast / Pins / Rostarr goodness...
www.artcuratesfashion.com/
Anyone know if the collages which are piled up on top of the Pinocchio canvas (image near the bottom of the page, I can't seem to grab a link though) are by both Bast and Pins or just Bast? - I know the canvas is the pair of them, I thought the collages were just Bast but maybe they're collabs..

Gallery have not paid for a consignment sent, by twist65 on Mar 20, 2015 12:33:12 GMT 1, I think it is being a bit naive to expect a business to pay you for something without having an invoice. To issue your payment they need a paper-trail. Otherwise they could just take loads of money out of the company account and say "oh we had some artists to pay but we didn't get an invoice so you'll have to just believe its true." The tax man wouldn't like that very much.
They prob have an accounts person or department, who will receive your invoice, put it on their accounts system, and clear it for payment on the next cheque/payment run. Most businesses do a payment run once a month, unless its special circumstances, hence 30 days payment from receipt of invoice.
My advice would be to send your invoice, ring them and ask to speak to the person in accounts. Get their name and confirm that they have your invoice and just be honest - say you didn't realise you had to send an invoice and were expecting to be paid by now, so see if they'll do you a favour and hurry your payment through. Ring them every week until its sorted. Don't name and shame and get all angry about it though, as this is basically your fault.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by twist65 on Mar 5, 2015 15:10:55 GMT 1, you would kind of hope that, if there was indeed a Federation of Ideas, the ideas would be of a much greater standard than "lets nick Banksy images for charity"

Paul Insect and Bast in London, by twist65 on Mar 4, 2015 18:19:56 GMT 1, they've been spending a lot of time together lately, hope so - I love them both individually but they often seem to bring the best out in each other when they double up.. Hopefully they'll do a feature film, I could watch a couple of hours worth of these recent vids =]

Paul Insect and Bast in London, by twist65 on Mar 4, 2015 14:07:28 GMT 1, In fact paul insect reminds me of miss bugs reminds me of judith supine reminds me of bast. Is there a link? I read somewhere that Insect used to be a collective.
and noticed similarties with some of Miss Bugs style.
Insect was a design studio run by Paul and Luke, which I think they knocked on the head to pursue their solo art projects. Luke Insect also does some lovely stuff, seems he has taken down his website but his tumblr thingy is here lukeinsect.tumblr.com/
There was also another member of Insect, who's name I can't put my finger on - a Scandinavian lad who also is an artist and did a show at Laz Newcastle a couple of years back, lots of pop-arty nice anodized metal pieces. His son is also the kid in Paul Insects' DJ Shadow images. Can't remember his name though, I have a catalogue somewhere..
As for Miss Buggs, as Coach said it was always rumoured that Paul Insect was the Buggs from Miss Buggs, not sure if that ever got confirmed though..

Always look forward to when they hook up as there's normally some awesome street work or daftness as a result posted on instagram. These videos are next level though! =]
