The Giant

Hey Steven, Those are nice and classic images! Including your range and the framing details (frame type, mount type, glazing type, etc.) might help people here decide on value... the forum is kind of slow these days, and anything to reduce the barrier to somebody messaging you would likely enable a ...

Thanks for that!

I’m not surprised with those outcomes, but it’s always been strange that MANW continues to get lots of attention, considering how many versions of it there have been. I suppose it’s like Liberte Jr.

You might be a bit late on this.

> Also really liked the promo poster. Did that get made into a print as well?

I don't think it's been made into a print *YET*. But the post in Instagram implied that it'd be made into one soon.

The panel itself looks legit. The details and collaging look right. And there'd be no reason for a counterfeiter to make a fake panel and then sell it unsigned and for cheap. It's probably unsigned because it's basically a misprint, as you mentioned. Probably a backdoor grab or something. Maybe Shep...

I stopped regularly updating the wiki and posting release info back in 2020 when the activity was starting to die down… sadly a lot of discord and social media stuff is more people complaining about flipping (or discussing value) than appreciating the work itself. And the discord is mostly NFT folks...

Canvas sold for $975k + BP, about $1.25M total.

Stencil collage on paper passed.

The Hope OGs are interesting. They keep popping up, and in different mediums and sizes. Of course I'm nowhere near in the estimated range they've given to get one myself, but I'm curious to see how these ones do.

There are multiples made but they aren’t an “edition”.

Stencil collages are made over time, not all at once. And usually 3-5 at most got made. There are a couple Big Brothers floating around, including one sold at 1984ia in London some time ago. Not sure about JLP.

I'm pretty sure some of those on the bay are cheaper than what I paid, when you add in shipping.

The Amuseum version is different - it has the text on top. Shep’s version does not.

Mine was shipped in a flimsy tube with no signature required that was dented and creased the print. I emailed Positive Propaganda and they were unhelpful. https://i.ibb.co/mBcMJD8/IMG-6581.jpg https://i.ibb.co/Jn3G4cM/IMG-6584.jpg I think they've been occupied with the above funding issues since la...

https://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/muenchen/streit-um-das-streetart-museum-amuseum-nach-zwei-monaten-schon-vor-dem-aus-art-864911 It sounds like some commercial urban art places in Munich (who charge admission) complained about the city of Munich's funding contribution to Amuseum (which does not c...

I'm praying that HENI select me for a Veils original by Hirst, so I'm saving my money. Surprised the lack of interest in these TBH lol I'm in the reverse situation. I would have applied for a large Veil but I ended up grabbing something of Shep's before Damien made his announcement. Good luck! The ...

nixon451 wrote:Is it really sold out? I thought the shipping cost would guarantee this one would hang around for a while.

Yes, I think so. Also - not everybody who buys Shep’s stuff is US based. I’m sure a lot of EU based collectors finally got cheap shipping prices.

Snowden and Greta appear in new canvases.

I see that you know the subject so, out of curiosity, what was the original price of the 2x pieces in 2004?

HPMs on wood in that period were around $500-750. By 2005 they were $750 from galleries.

I think you might have a hard time finding this here, and I'm not sure what your budget is, but I would be prepared to spend over $50k, easily. This is what I know: - ec has one (I think) - another sold at auction in 2016 for 16k GBP (https://www.phillips.com/detail/shepard-fairey/UK010316/74?fromSe...

None of those HPM images really did much for me, except Hello My Name Is. The retired stencils were very cool. I think the highlight of the show was Shep signing autographs with a cigarette up his nose. https://i.ibb.co/b1YrYFP/FB93821-B-02-DD-4645-BB5-A-D5-E822-F5-AD38.jpg Great shot of a special ...

Really looking forward to this show!

Addict wrote:...already an idea of ​​the expected price?

The only Fire Sale HPM on wood that I know of that has sold on secondary market went for $15k, in February (Artnet auctions). I thought it was an unusually strong result.

I've seen a few unnumbered prints recently. Was it common for Shep to sign but not number? A lot of these I think are from the same seller. They were unsigned and unnumbered, and he got Shep to sign them later. The seller is based out of Montreal and I was not surprised that they popped up after th...

I thought that’s what the DMs here were for already

$8750 w/BP. Not bad, but lower than I'd have guessed!
