Congrats to those who bagged these beauties as they look fantastic together! By the way, it looks like TA is included in an exhibition at Tate St. Ives with well known folks and some lesser known but talented painters: www.tate.org.uk/stives/exhibitions/the_indiscipline_of_painting/default.shtmHere is the press release if you want to save yourself a click: The Indiscipline of Painting is an international group exhibition including works by forty-nine artists from the 1960s to now. Selected by British painter Daniel Sturgis, it considers how the languages of abstraction have remained urgent, relevant and critical as they have been revisited and reinvented by subsequent generations of artists over the last 50 years. It goes on to demonstrate the way in which the history and legacy of abstract painting continues to inspire artists working today. The contemporary position of abstract painting is problematic. It can be seen to be synonymous with a modernist moment that has long since passed, and an ideology which led the medium to stagnate in self-reflexivity and ideas of historical progression. The Indiscipline of Painting challenges such assumptions. It reveals how painting’s modernist histories, languages and positions have continued to provoke ongoing dialogues with contemporary practitioners, even as painting’s decline and death has been routinely and erroneously declared. The show brings together works by British, American and European artists made over the last five decades and features major new commissions and loans. It includes important works by Andy Warhol, Frank Stella, Gerhard Richter and Bridget Riley alongside other lesser known artists such as Tomma Abts, Martin Barré, Mary Heilmann and Jeremy Moon. The Indiscipline of Painting is a collaborative project between Tate St Ives and Mead Gallery, Warwick Arts Centre. The exhibition travels to the Mead Gallery and opens on the 14 January 2012, running until 10 March 2012. As part of The Indiscipline of Painting, Newlyn Art Gallery has commissioned John M. Armleder to make a major new work. John M. Armleder is at Newlyn Art Gallery 8 October 2011 – 3 January 2012. The exhibition will be showing works from the following 49 artists (in alphabetical order): Tomma Abts born 1967; John M. Armleder born 1948 ; Tauba Auerbach born 1981; Martin Barré 1924 – 1993; Francis Baudevin born 1964; Daniel Buren born 1938 ; André Cadere 1934‑1978; Ingrid Calame born 1965 ; Keith Coventry born 1958 ; Michael Craig‑Martin born 1941 ; Karin Davie born 1965; Peter Davies born 1970; Gene Davis 1920‑1985; David Diao born 1943; Moira Dryer 1957 – 1992; Bernard Frize born 1949; Michelle Grabner born 1962; Tim Head born 1946; Alex Hubbard born 1975; Katharina Grosse born 1961; Peter Halley born 1953; Jane Harris born 1956; Mary Heilmann born 1940 ; Jacob Kassay born 1984; Richard Kirwan born 1969; Imi Knoebel born 1940; Bob Law 1934‑2004; Sherrie Levine born 1947; Jeremy Moon 1934‑1973; Olivier Mosset born 1944; Carl Ostendarp born 1961; Blinky Palermo 1943‑1977; Steven Parrino 1958-2005; David Reed born 1946; Gerhard Richter born 1932; Bridget Riley born 1931; Ruth Root born 1967; Robert Ryman born 1930; Sean Scully born 1945; Frank Stella born 1936; Myron Stout 1908-1987; Daniel Sturgis born 1966; Cheyney Thompson born 1975; Niele Toroni born 1937; Richard Tuttle born 1941; Dan Walsh born 1960; Andy Warhol 1928‑1987; Peter Young born 1940; Heimo Zobernig born 1958.

Did everybody get confirmation of the purchase, follow up sales, postage etc... How did you know you were buying 2 and not 1 or vice versa? Sorry for the contradictions!.... You should have been contacted to confirm which print(s) you wanted. The price was per print - all very confusing. Having said that, payment hasn't been processed for my order even though I've had confirmation from them. Hopefully it will all be fine. |

Has anyone had payment taken from their cards on this? Nothing on my end and they're not replying to my emails. I smell a rat.

Hi,
Has anyone any details of the Norway show ? Do we know if there will be any work for sale ? Or is this all going to be pre-sold.
Slightly surprised we are yet to see and Canvas pieces at auction yet.

You can probably count the number of fold paintings that are in private collections on one hand. I think it will be a while before we see one at auction. And if I was lucky enough to have an earlier piece I'd be holding on to it for a while yet.

Slightly surprised we are yet to see and Canvas pieces at auction yet. As per info posted earlier in the thread, the only Fold painting to pop up in an auction setting was was at charity benefit last Nov. www.thekitchen.org/auction2010/index.html#artworkNo concrete results that I got wind of definitively. But speculation was that it came close to closing around 10x the estimate. She did have a couple paper works listed as a set at Phillips in last Oct Contemporary Sale, her first work to be brokered at a major house. www.phillipsdepury.com/auctions/lot-detail.aspx?sn=NY010610&search=&p=&order=&lotnum=206Closed for a reasonable amount considering, even if the works aren't her strongest examples ever. And she supplied a copy of the classic Yes or No and/or Yes and No Paulson Etching to the annual Watermill Summer Benefit in July, also auctioned by Phillips. watermillcenter.org/benefit/auction/auerbachI think I have it in an email somewhere what it closed at. But as afroken suggests, I wouldn't anticipate a Fold coming up at any of the major auctions houses for a number of years. |

Thanks for all the info , I was aware of some of the paper works auctioned at Phillips and they were certainly resonable hammer prices ! I have both sets of the last series of etchings but they will be staying with me.
Looking like ever getting your hands on a Fold is going to be near impossible , your right if I currently had one in my collection I also wouldnt be letting it go.
Does anyone know anything about the Norway show in November ............ will there be any canvas pieces for sale there ??

Well after being fairly confident this was in fact too good to be true, it appears they finally got their act together. Invoice received. Woot. Does anyone know anything about the Norway show in November ............ will there be any canvas pieces for sale there ?? There will be 10 new paintings, along with a set of the book sculptures from her recent exhibition, A Book is Not An X. Sales will be handled by Paula Cooper. |

Definitely. They're pretty close to me so happy to sort it out for everyone. I already looked into it and they'll cost about £120 each with subframes so hopefully we can get a bit off that.

Just been told they have no record of my order despite me having an informal confirmation email from them. Now waiting for a call from the boss. Totally gutted.
