Faile Print & Original Release, by Guest on Mar 19, 2010 18:03:40 GMT 1, fair enough, just wondered how you come to have such a strong opinion on Basts work? Im a fan of him and Faile, although i think faile have the upperhand when it comes down to it. Fair enough. My opinion is formed from many years of being passionately involved, as a fan and spectator, in the scene as a whole; seeing works in situ; seeing works others own, the few pieces i have; seeing works in galleries, shows, auctions; internet; books; photos; flickr, closeups etc etc. i don't hate faile btw! i just prefer bast. This conversation is over for everyone's sake!
breathe in and out slowly alexis, youre going to have a siezure. over and out.

The way I see it, BAST is bipolar and Faile are on Prozac, figuratively speaking. I find the former more exciting personally.

Faile Print & Original Release, by wimpy on Mar 19, 2010 20:51:27 GMT 1, This thread reminds me of Faile threads on here in early/mid 2007.
Let us see who is singing the same tune come the end of 2010 after everything else that was mentioned in their email.

Faile Print & Original Release, by cannaebefannied on Mar 22, 2010 13:07:59 GMT 1, vaidade looks lazy; the tiger face doesn't sit right imo. I think these guys are stuck up their own rses in terms of their pricing structure. Bast p.i.sse.s on these guys; and i get the impression they sort of patronise him with their higher profile, which I don't think they quite warrant. Bastโs one man efforts are loaded with so much more raw energy than anything the Patrick duo, and no doubt their assistants throw together. They've got too comfortable churning out this graphic design. Needless to say i won't be buying this or anything from them and i sort of look fwd to their demise. Bast is slowly knocking them off the pedestal that they've put themselves on. You can go ahead and shoot me down, but Iโm wearing a bullet proof vest on this one! (Iโm the terminator, you can't kill me!)
Street piece in Berlin, looks good on the wall

Whether they're on horseback, desiring hanging bananas, devouring a bunny or simply shedding a tear, I am hopelessly devoted to them. Always have been. They're images are striking and beautiful.
I don't find anything beautiful in Bast's work, but can appreciate what he does.

I can't really afford Faile anymore, either. 10 ways has always been on my top 5 of their images. Plus it has the "Glimmering Shadows" flag and the future Portugal "Cathedral" installation mixed in. It is like a 10 year Faile retrospective in itself - or a bit of past, present and future...
