Hello everyone.
Hope 2011 is treating you well.
Things have been busy in the studio. We are working on a few new projects, including a book on the Temple project due out this Fall. More information to come on that over the next few months.
In the mean time, we are doing a release on the Faile site tomorrow – 3/31. New works will be up at noon, NYC time.
store.faile.net/
We have a new interpretation of the Faile Flag. These are 20 unique works – three wooden palettes are conjoined within a steel frame to make up the flag image. All sides (top, bottom, left, right) are printed with classic Faile typography and patterns, and the wood is treated with a weathered patina. The steel frame is welded with "FAILE" and "1986" on respective sides.
We are also releasing the second half of the Bronze Scuba Horse sculpture edition. This is an edition of 10. These are pretty amazing bronzes and we are excited to have the edition complete. These are jewelry cast bronzes from the renowned Raneri Sculpture Cast foundry. If interested, there is a link on the site that will generate an email to us and we will follow up with more details.
Next month we'll be launching something special. It's been in the works for some time and finally coming to fruition.
Also in the next month, we will be bringing a large edition print to Paper Monster that should be pretty special.
We'll be in touch and thank you as always for the support.
All the best,
Faile

Exciting news, although unfortunately the book and paper monster print will be the only thing in the majority of people's price range.

Totally agree - although I think a bunch of flippers have been burnt on Faile in the last couple of years. Fingers crossed they've learnt their lesson and these get into the hands of the fans  |

Well, isn't the forum about sharing info/news and exchanging opinions about it?
Or did you mean the "how much would this be worth to you?" comments?

Considering that Faile prices are at market value I don't think flippers will be interested

Must admit, i don't really agree with this either. This is an art forum and the imminent faile release is pretty big news. Flippers and lurkers are all part and parcel of collecting - adds to the fun some might say. I would hate to come on this forum only to see people in the know communicating with each other using special code words. Having said that, if the papermonster release is the image of those two mermaids kissing...please delete this thread and the code word for the faile print release is BUNS! |

I am sure every flipper out there has already signed upto every gallery and artist website there is, so hiding the info from here will not really have any effect against them.

no see, it's cool to be the first to run and tell everyone info. Internet pats on the back are where it's at these days. Grow up people, JB is right.

Ya informing people who might not be on the email list is such a douche move! All you people discussing an art release in the NEW PRINTS section should just go straight to hell!  |
