I Didn't see tobaum's thread -

I was lead to believe they were all new works with all the portraits of celebs, apparently not....

Thanks for the pics...gotta get up to this show!

[Collection 1]

Just bought this one!
My first Matt Small original:)

[Coach]

Stunning new work by MS.
Jason is my favorite of all those pics (thanks for them btw).
Anyone know price range?
Still believe MS to be one of the best painters talked about on our forum.

Amazing work, congrats JP.
Its cool seeing the changes of colour pallete though the older work to new.
Josh & George looks epic you even get a Matty spin painting in the middle.
Does Matt get much love in the US ? Great show to make his mark.

[timba82]

just caught wind of this. really good to see matty over in the US.
as coach says i think Jason is the best there. all really really nice pieces though

[Collection 1]

Bump for Matty in the US!

[Hubble Bubble]

Bump for 'any indication of price ranges'?

[Collection 1]

Prices range from $750 for drawings, to $1900 for linocuts, to $5000 - $27,000 for original paintings.. Contact merry at the gallery.

Could have sworn I have seen 'Jeremy' offered up for sale on here a while back by a forum member or am I imagining things?... & $27,000 - that's a hefty price tag, what was that for? (glad to see you finally got your Matt small Jean, nice!)

[Hubble Bubble]

I saw a few of these recently at Black Rat Press. Terrific in the flesh. There was nothing priced at approaching $27k though!!

[manty]

Really like Matt Small.

The only thing is looking at these, they could have been from 2007.

Must be hard to evolve, and perhaps there is no need?

I'd still really like one though

[Collection 1]

Hi guys, thanks for the comments and I'm very excited to see it in the flesh!!
Laced: Matt used to paint the same model in a different way. So you could find more than one painting called Jeremy.
Hubblebubble: I'm not sure what painting is $27k but I think it's one of those:

Stopped by the final day of this show yesterday with my wife...there were some fantastic pieces still available at what I thought were quite affordable prices. Someone put together a nice video of the opening here...


As much as we enjoyed Matt's work (it was awesome), we were floored by Pete Stern's pieces. I'd never even heard of him before, and certainly don't think JPGs can come close to capturing the visual impact of his work. I'm not sure I would want it hanging on my wall as it's a bit dizzying, but it was really something impressive to experience. Here's a couple images...
