I'm dissapointed not to see any new material, especially as it's 2 he's releasing. Neither will stand up to prisoner in my eyes, bit pricey too.

Funny for about 5 minutes. Why anyone would want to spend 3K (about going rate for a Dolk canvas!!) on the banana canvas is beyond me...my 5 year old would enjoy the print in his bedroom but not at 250 quid....

I'm a big fan of Dolk's work... Shrink will fit right in with my other framed Dolks:   |

I am absolutely serious when I say that I thought Jboy had mocked these up on photoshop as a joke. Tired stuff imho. His previous prints especially Zooicide are quality however (not Jboys obviously)  ;D |

Zooicides my fav but the banana theme should of ended there. I missed out on the dildo release, was it an AP?  I have a prisoner and last mona for sale if anyone interested. |

Sometimes I just don't understand how artists come about deciding on what works to screen print... I mean Dolk has SOOOOO many KILLER images that really speak to the masses... and I REALLY love his prints that I have been lucky enough to add to my collection...
That said, I just don't see myself purchasing either of these prints and it bums me out as I've really been looking forward to seeing what Dolk, Pobel & Co. have in store for '09... Maybe it's just me but I can't see these editions selling out quickly, especially with the current world economy and the prices that HMP are now asking for Dolk prints...

artists have got lazy imo, either that or the markets taste has finally got better Gotta agree with you on both points... The buyer dictates the market and "fun" money is in shorter supply these days, so artists are either going to have to WOW us or the prints are going to sit on the shelf... especially at those prices... unless it's Banksy What I mean is, here I am, just waiting to throw some money Dolk's way... but it's just not going to happen with either of these new prints... Like the post from earlier, there is a ton of stuff that I would rather spend $500 on...  |

I am a very big Dolk fan and I have many of his pieces but these 2 prints are terrible - I wouldn't pay $25.00 for them. What's with the bananas -

both great images for me, Dolk's a great stencil artist - hugely underrated in general, just wish we'd see some new work from him hopefully at Fame eh?
