The canvas work sold out on the night of the opening and they ranged in the 65,000 grand area. The price list I saw (which wasn't a complete list) showed canvas in the 44 x 30's range at 35K - 45K. What pieces were in the 65K range? |

The stress marks are purposeful and were created by Shepard/Obey. They are obvious and also intentional. If you like the image and are being offered a decent price, don't be discouraged in the least by the marks.

I know the stress marks are purposeful on most of his pieces but this one in particular is demanding too much attention.

Anyone else watch Fantasy Factory on MTV? Pretty silly shit. But I get a good amount of enjoyment out of watching it. I don't know what it is, but I laugh so much. Kinda sad, I suppose  Regardless, in tonight's episode, Dyrdek's manager has the Mujer Fatal unique canvas from Levine 07 displayed in his office. A really amazing piece, which looked even better in the footage. Almost like this modified variation of just the eyes more than the standard full profile stencil collage.  |

I saw that yesterday. At first glance I thought maybe it wasn't real but then I could see all the collage details when they did a close up. Really sick piece.

Just a heads up if anyone's interested. Taken from his site. POW(ER) Print Here is a brief explanation of the POW(ER) print. I was asked by my longtime friends at PAPER magazine to guest edit their art issue. I gladly accepted, and the issue should be out later in Nov. In the issue my friend and PAPER editor Carlo McCormick, who wrote an essay for my book “Supply And Demand”, wrote a fantastic essay about the evolution of visual culture from Pop Art to street art, and the impact of the internet and media saturation. To illustrate Carlo’s essay I created the POW(ER) image. The image is an homage to influential Pop Artist Roy Lichtenstein, who appropriated and re-painted comic frames often transforming them in meaning and context. I have often described my art as a fusion of Pop Art, street art, and political art. I utilize the platform created by Pop Art, but I try to take my work even more directly to the people. Like Pop artists before me, I utilize a vocabulary of familiar cultural visual references. In fact, after I conceived of the POW(ER) image and did some further research on Lichtenstein, I discovered an image he had made of a woman holding a can of spray paint or hairspray. The image looked familiar to me, because a few years ago I re-illustrated the same piece of clip art that Lichtenstein referenced for his spray paint/hair spray painting. The connection was was too serendipitous to ignore and I proceeded to create the POW(ER) image. For me, street art has always been about populism and emPOWERment. The recent embrace of street art in the art world as a legitimate genre demonstrates the power of accessible, relatable imagery, and in many ways builds upon the triumphs of Pop Art. Check out the PAPER issue when it comes out to read Carlo’s excellent essay. -Shepard 18 x 24″ Screen Print Signed and Numbered Edition of 450. $45. Limit 1 per person/household. Release Date: 11/04/2010 at a random time  |
