I thought this was kind of cool (had to look it up after reading about a mini-gocco print release on the banksy forums...)

here's the link to the mini-gocco's...it's only like 3 pounds and 1 pound to ship to the US so I bought one even though I need to not be spending any more money on things I have no use for lol :)

oh cool! do you remember what it looked like? I'm pretty curious about this technique and have been kinda checking articles/pictures out all day.

It's a neat piece. It was a cool combo of giclee and letterpress on the front. Plus his awesome calligraphy skills in the numbering and sig. Plus the gocco on the back. I'd be interested to see some more intricate designs from other artist who use that medium more regularly.

I would too. I'm quite fascinated with the style...

I think it's similar to my fascination with holga cameras a year or two ago...like old school systems that are a bit more simple than modern day techniques...
