This is my first post so im sorry im not bringing more to the table, but ive looked through this forum and couldn't find a space suitable to ask this question so im hoping here will be ok. Im trying to find images of the pixel works that are available on paulson press, but images of the prints in a frame rather than the jpegs used to show the work on the website. Any help would be great, ive been pondering which of the prints to get for months now.. I need to make my mind up soon really  |

I'm sure you've seen these image on Standard's site already. But here's an image of the original "50/50" ink piece from The Uncertainty Principle show there in 2008, from which it appears the Paulson prints were based. It could at least give you an idea of how she wanted to present the work.   But I'd actually love to see a hi res image of one of these framed on someone's wall as well. I've been trying to track down a painting or drawing by her for almost a year now to no avail. Not that she's put out much new work to have a crack at over the past 6-8 months, especially without knowing the right person, as she prepares for he next solo. But it's become quite apparent that it will take some time, effort and luck to find something unique. As such, I've considered one of the Static series prints myself over the past many months. It's definitely the only thing available out there currently in the way of "original" work. But I haven't been swayed as of yet by one. Perhaps I'll somehow get lucky with a piece in October. |

Cheers for that, I now remember seeing that shot a while ago but completely forgot about it. Would love now to see one of the colored versions and how the prints sit with the border they have.

Just spotted this image of her Frieze piece from banksy.info. Thanks afroken.  After lobbying hard basically from the beginning of the year to pull a piece from this show, I have now retired my attempts to procure something from her. It's a futile effort at this point. The demand and high praise is simply too great for someone in my position get something unique. Absolutely genius on all fronts, so perhaps the work should go to more high profile collections. |

I have been in a similar position Lowpro. Her work is so in demand that they are clearly limiting access to major collectors. I'm not giving up yet though.
The piece at Frieze just blew me away. It was the first time I'd seen one of her Fold paintings in person and nothing can prepare you for the pure emotional impact of one of these. They are both calmly meditative and incredibly complex. You put your nose right up to one and it still looks completely 3D and real. Add to that the play of light across the folds and the scale, and the overall effect is to really confuse and challenge your spatial perception. Just phenomenal work.

The keys are nice, but neither piece is what I'd really want as my example of her art. I'm just glad it's not a fold painting up for auction - pretty sure it would put her work permanantly out of reach.

She makes her auction debut next month. Well it was only a matter of time. Yet another nail in the coffin of my chances at a piece. I would agree it's by no means her strongest work. But it is representative of her earlier work and will unquestionably blow past the estimates. Thanks for pointing this out. |

Def nondescript. I had reached out the PS1 a while back for details but even their response was cryptic, most likely deliberately so. Should be super interesting study in cross genre collaboration and performance art. The PS1 location in Long Island City looks so fucking cool. Hopefully, they're video capture either officially or by audience members.
Here's some behind the scenes work for one of the collaborations..

The auction closed at $17,500 for the pair, including BP. A strong showing, near the high estimate, but at $8750 per piece the auction certainly didn't put her work through the roof. I'm still scared of what a fold painting would do in a similar auction. |

I believe she uses an airbrush to do the fold paintings. She folds the canvas itself and then meticulously airbrushes the folds before pressing it flat.

I thought (correct me if I'm wrong..!) - there was only one fold print. And I'm not sure if it is sold out. Did anyone pickup a pop up book at the art fair ? Afroken ! .. any info on when they're going to be available from PM ? |

Just heard back from them. The book won't be available for another 4 to 6 months. It's an edition of 1,000 and the price will be around the $300 mark (not finalised yet).
