Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by twist65 on May 15, 2013 13:26:51 GMT 1, Agreed ABC umming and ahhing here too purely because of the size! Fantastic image and I think the price is spot on again from Faile, but not sure I have the wall space! Sure they'll be pretty easy to pick up for not much more than cost if I regret not buying one though and sell something to make room...
Also think Faile should be applauded for making this an ed of 500, this image seemed to be most people's favourite from the Ballet work, if they just released an ed of 12 there would be a lot more people complaining... And am sure there will be some cheeky 1/1 colourways etc or this image resurfacing in some shape or form too..

Eelus or Bnaksy??, by twist65 on May 10, 2013 17:09:51 GMT 1, for me it's Eelus' best print by a mile Vs Banksy's second worst (and most over-rated) print...

Faile New Print - Les Ballets De Faile, by twist65 on May 9, 2013 16:15:59 GMT 1, assuming its a papermonster release, I really hope they can sort their site out this time.. way, way more appealing image than mary poppins, plus the added bonus of securing a 150 series print if their site does fall over mid-purchase... so plenty of interest for this one I reckon!!

Did I just buy a [print]Poster signed by Warhol, Haring, Ono, by twist65 on Apr 26, 2013 17:41:09 GMT 1, yeah I saw it too when listed and guessed it had been mis-listed. Don't really think there's bargains to be had on Fab, I figured they just had a pile of bottom end stuff that didn't make it into Christies. Shame someone didn't manage to get them to honour their listing error though! In fairness Fab customer service is excellent, never bought art off them but very helpful on other stuff / returns etc.

GRAFFITI PRNTS PRESENTS - A.CE DUCK EDIT 2013, by twist65 on Apr 16, 2013 13:52:25 GMT 1, I think it's pretty fair to assume that all artists are inspired/draw reference from other art/artists they like. For me Bast puts all his influences through the rinser and spews out something which is totally in his own style, there are many other collage artists and people doing similar things referencing the same influences but there is something unmistakable "Bast" about his work which for me makes it stand out a mile..
If I were A.CE i'd have spent a lot more time working on his own style, everyone has to start from somewhere and there's no shame in your early work wearing its influences on its sleeve so to speak, but A.CE has been around long enough now that surely he should be developing rather than sticking to the watered-down Bast formula. His new Maxwell Colette show even includes work with huge Chanel logos worked into the image, i'd be embarrassed if I were him.
I think Hush is a great example of an artist who's early work was quite easy to see traces of other artists work in, but by pushing himself and working hard has kind of developed a visual language of his own that is very identifyable. So it can be done if you're not lazy. I'm sure there's plenty of other/better examples too.
I'm not dissing this print as I quite like it, and looks well produced, but for me even though its an old image A.CE should be pushing himself more. I like it because I like Bast, but prefer the real thing rather than a tribute act!

Calling all experts of Faile, by twist65 on Apr 11, 2013 12:40:49 GMT 1, yeah defo looks like a keyfoods doggy paster to me! killer piece and wouldn't bother me that it wasn't signed, i'd go for this in a heartbeat...
Dunno for sure about the London show but there was a couple of pics on Failes instagram of an early Germany group show with Banksy & Shep etc, which had some keyfoods pasters on display (I just had another look but couldn't find the pic tho).

New faile 150 series sneak peek , by twist65 on Mar 28, 2013 18:32:34 GMT 1, agree with the multiple email thing, my main gripe with this particular release though is the fact its Easter weekend. I'm doing loads of travelling about and family time etc so in the slim chance i'll get an email, in all likelihood i'll miss it anyway.. oh well I imagine most have pre-sold anyway so not holding out any hope on this one. Good luck to one and all though!

New faile 150 series sneak peek , by twist65 on Mar 25, 2013 22:14:32 GMT 1, oooh interesting! Bet that yellow one lurking at the bottom of the pile looks sweet! Reckon i've got bob hope what with all the first option for the papermonster oversells.. Aren't they a few behind schedule on these too? Was hoping for another double-drop as it seemed to screw the bots up a bit last time, will have a bash at the old-fashioned f5ing anyway...

Charming Baker LA show, by twist65 on Mar 25, 2013 11:48:26 GMT 1, I agree and thats kind of what made me lose interest a bit, his prices seemed to jump from nowhere (well, the classic "hirst buys out entire show" gambit) and I did think that it could give him nowhere to go longterm when he was no longer flavour of the month with the elite. But at the end of the day if he keeps on producing work to the standard of this show I can't see him struggling too much, hype is temporary but quality and talent is forever.

Charming Baker LA show, by twist65 on Mar 25, 2013 11:23:38 GMT 1, wow, yes great pics swabie. all the hype had turned me off Charming Baker a bit but glad I caught up with this thread, really does look like a fantastic show and some of those canvases are jaw-droppers. Never been too fussed on his prints before either (except Half Pint), the sketchy ones look a bit weak to me but the plane especially looks brilliant and there's no doubting Jealous' quality. Fat catalogues too!

Btw is that an actual image of the print or one of the canvases? Curious as to whether the overspray is part of the print but will look great either way!
