There's something I rather like about this one, but I am on a self imposed ban on any art. It has a great sense of movement to it, reminds me a little of old black and white films, so far my favourite of the dolk print releases from HMP and second fav after POW's Burger King

I think it's great. What's the problem with the Dolk tag? I can now look forward to another half day down at the customs office. |

I think it's great. What's the problem with the Dolk tag? Nothing "wrong" - I just don't see why he has to plaster his name over everything. It's understandable on the streets, but unnecessary in print. It's not as bad on this print, but it totally ruined the Girl With Teddy print. Might just be vanity I suppose. But I for one am glad it's not something that happens all over - Rude Copper with BANSKY tag on his helmet? Bomb Hugger with tagged bomb... thank f**k no... |

Hmmm... is one of these comments going to be substantiated anytime soon or are they all going to be as off-hand as they've been up to now. I don't know enough about Dolk's older stuff to be able to judge where/when he's aped a Banksy but I'd be interested in seeing something that would point in that direction. |

I quite like it! To be fair if that had been released by Banksy and his name had been written on his chest it would have been sold out in seconds and on ebay for £2.5k now!!!
If the quality of zooicide is anything to go by this will look great in the flesh. At least he is 'keeping it real' £90.00 for a fun print like that seems pretty honest to me!?

Yep... pretty much the same as I feel about the zooicide print which is spreading out quite nicely on the dining room table right now. I love that brushed-over look on it, and Prisoner has the same effect going. What's that he's standing on though? |

No issue with the prices PUD... The subject material I'm not overly keen on... what have been his last few releases:
Dead pig in blood with unnecessary explanatory text
Star Wars print with unnecessary explanatory text
Girl with Dolk Tag
Floating monkey on the banana phone
Prisoner with Dolk tag
Absolutely none of them say anything to me... nothing at all. I see what you mean by fun print, but if I want to spend £90 + P&P + Tax on something fun I'll go to the pub and get leathered...
It'd, like his others, never get on the wall, as there is much better (in my opinion of course) work around that says something to me and/or looks miles better...
I've obviously touched a nerve with a few people who have jumped in and bought one and then come on expecting us all to be having a tug over it... well sorry, I'm going to say what I think...

The only similarity is the body position. Other than that it's not the same thing at all! |

Like you Mike, just offering an opinion, I aint pushed the button on this one for the reason you stated, this one does'nt actually say anything, but no doubt the quality of the printing process HMP use and the 'fun' nature of the subject and the reasonable price will see it sell out pretty quick! Just bought an original from neverwork, so my money is spent this month!! ;D |
