I was looking on EBEANS last night and saw some pictures of frames that were speckled like (with the illusion of spray paint from the print running out into the frame) It's wasn't MBW's work, but it was still pretty damn sweet looking!

let me know if you find the picture of what your talking about it sounds interesting...

For anyone who owns them both would u buy star wars or Love is the answer?

Thats tough because they are really two different types of prints. The Star Wars is appealing to me because of the detail and because its so matter-of-fact ("It's just another Sunday at the Skywalker household"). The Einstein is less detailed, but I like the simplicity of it. It's funny to me in a different way and I love the message.

The price difference is also a consideration. Star Wars is double the price, but they have the same 300 run (granted SW is signed). If price isn't an issue I'd take the Star Wars because I think its aesthetically more appealing and may have better long term appreciation prospects. But for $50 I think the Einstein is a steal.

Cory

Note: Even though I think the SW is more attractive, I will getting my Einstein framed first.

Jan 15, 2009, 12:45 PM
Also, with such low print runs its making it harder to determine a true value for his work since its not being heavily traded. I know for myself Im keeping most of my stuff but it seems like the infor at EB isnt changing and my thought is that with print runs of 15 they just arent being traded or sold. Its like he needs to have runs of 300 in order to have them traded so that it brings in more fans of his work... im rambling.

I THINK on the MBW stuff its mostly computers. He scans in the pictures he wants, tweaks them (ie. pastes a superman body on there), and then sends them off for printing. For Fairey it seems like he does more of the art himself (although I'm sure he scans in the pics and modifies as well). Anyone want to correct me on this?

Maybe someone well versed in photoshop or other illustrating softwares can shed some light. Once the image is scanned it probably needs to be broken into color components for screen printing. I'm not sure hour labor intensive this is or if he does it himself. Maybe he just tells someone, "I want Einstein holding a Love is the Answer sign...make it happen". Maybe he hand draws everything himself and scans that, but I doubt it. For me, it doesn't really matter because I like the images and the high quality final product. I think most of the great masters had students do work on some of their most famous paintings...so I don't see how this is that much different*.

Fairey's work is primarily stencils. He finds images he likes and hand makes stencils then layers them to create his final pieces.

I gotta find a life is beautiful. Pretty Savvy of MBW to send out a reminder email when it was east to see that the demand was high. He basically guaranteed that people will be shut out. I think he's also roughly found his price range for 50 run prints, because we know at $300 these things would still be there.

Especially in the market of 1/1's. If you're lucky enough to obtain a very desirable piece at a price determined by the maker, once it's in your possession - you're holding a scratch off lotto ticket with a value to be determined by whoever wants it however badly and can pony up the biggest amount.

I forget what P/P means. Anyone? I thought it was similar to an A/P and overall I'm happy. I agree its definitely better than a refund and I figure its pretty solid with only 5 of them out there. I tried to request a new edition be added on EB, but I'm not sure how to do that (I posted it in the thread...but then again I did that for my Budich - The Dragon A/P and still not added).

I've heard bad things about Alfred, but never seen it in person. also those same red and blues have been up there forever.
