she's in great shape for these pics and especially considering she must have been about 40 when they were taken!
that said, it was prior to her getting babbed up by a 19 year old boy wasn't it?

You lose the signature on the rear so you need to photograph it first. Counter Editions use Derbyshire I think so id trust their opinion.

Counter Editions Sam Taylor Wood, by Rsyok on Jan 17, 2011 12:45:14 GMT 1, Its a pretty big pic so definitely needs mounting. (and careful handling).
Just read the background on the piece post cancer treatment...
"Reminiscent of the artistโs earlier Self Portrait Suspended series, these photographs show the artist similarly suspended mid-air, in this case from brightly coloured helium balloons. "I have to hide my face in the pictures. It is a combination of hiding the grimacing pain - because I think that destroys the photograph - but it is also because I don't think you need to see my face." She said the pain was necessary as the photographs were a response to her fight against cancer. "I made them shortly after I was no longer referring to myself as an ill person," she said. "There is a definite sense of physical freedom from the constraints of illnessโ. Indeed, there is an air of the escape artist, of the magician, to these works. The artist does seem to be performing a miraculous act of levitation. The balloons surely arenโt enough to stop her slumped descent to the hard ground below. And so what is holding her up? Perhaps nothing less than an act of faith."

Counter Editions Sam Taylor Wood, by JKW on Jan 25, 2011 12:16:28 GMT 1, Is it just me or the price for the framed option hiked up massively this year? ยฃ200 for a frame? The last STW, similar size etc was about ยฃ130 more for framed!! And don't get me started on the museum glass option with them... (which I think this print really needs)

- if you go to Darbyshire themselves the prices are similar to Counters
- they are NOT a cheap option.....

Counter Editions Sam Taylor Wood, by JKW on Jan 25, 2011 16:28:19 GMT 1, It's nice, but I wasn't too convince by it. At the end I bought print only.
Custom designed? Black frame, black spacer, no mount... It's pretty standard with most of their photographic prints really, just different colour frame and spacer.
By the way, the framed print at the London Art Fair has an anti-reflective glass, not the UV perspex as you would get with the framed option, thought that was a bit cheeky.
Not slating the print, as it's amazing.
