WTF, by Poly Mindset on Jan 31, 2017 2:43:16 GMT 1, Has anyone seen this before? Is this a fake D*Face that he never did or What the F*%# is it.
The post on Epay reads like this--- "Prints of Prints: This Isn't the real thing, but it's extremely close
Not all of us can justify spending thousands of pounds on the real thing.
But what we create are prints that could very easily be one." WTF...WTF....WTF.....Is this whole world just becoming False Realities/Fake Truths. Somebody shoot me now.

WTF, by Poly Mindset on Jan 31, 2017 3:36:31 GMT 1, For an artist that made his entire career by appropriating the Lichtenstein aesthetic, it's only fair. But at least D*Face took Lichtenstein to a whole new and different level and actually added to the meaning of the work, which is exactly what Lichtenstein was doing in the first place with someone else's comics. Changing up the whole meaning of the existence of the work. Putting a new spin on it if you will. This is just blatant plagiarism (and not even pure at that) for the benefit of commercialism and commerce. It's just complete Bullshit!! If you are going to steal from an artist at least first of all; make it good, secondly for crying out loud, have some imagination to add to the substance of the guy's work. This is just freekin' lame as FUCK!!!

To be fair to the guy
1- his career existed much before his Lichtenstein stuff, and his output was varied and interesting
2- as Poly Mindset pointed out his use of Lichtenstein is not merely copy, there is an artistic intent of portraying the decay of the stereotypes
As for this fake, the issue is not the guy who makes it, but the one who buys it

and who did Lichtenstein appropriate or steal images from.
Look at Condo and one can see a mix of Picasso pre 1940's drawings and paintings mix with De Kooning.
Did Banksy appropriate Warhol?

Is this the seller?
D Face, Dolk and Banksy on his Ebay.
Unless the seller got permission to use make prints of their art and sell them in this way it's copyright theft.
