Vandals especially well. It's a shame they didn't adopt that approach. |

Sounds like a great buy to me  very small edition, and a good strong image. |

To my knowledge only one each of the blue and black prints were ever produced. Eine wanted to have a print ready for the opening of the show and so they used a rather shocking quality giclee (I visted Whisper a few times and it really was a poor quality print!). Whilst there was interest in the print Whisper stated that Eine was preparing a more expensive hand puled screenprint of the two images. At the end of November I was told that the screenprints were 'imminent'!
I popped into Whisper in January and they are unaware as to when the screenprint will be finished. All a bit disappointing but hopefully it will be available at some point.

That was exactly my response in the gallery! They could not confirm what the increase would be.

£650 a pop for a giclee sounds bonkers to me, even if its a small edition.... dont forget the Shutter font print gold and white eds of 25 were 350 and i think 375 quid? (could be wrong on gold, but white was definitely 350). Head and shoulders above this, and it took serious time and talent to produce, rather than just basically printing an image from a computer out on an inkjet printer.....
Saying that, as a screenprint, i think it would look great, so...

Very bad quality print. Made from, what looks like, a low res photograph of the canvas. Pretty shocking!

Love it... but £650 does seem an awful lot when an editioned original LOVE went through on Ebay for c£700
Cant seem to see them on their site anymore so I guess 23 people thought £650 was OK?

I think the canvas of this was hanging in Art Republic a couple of weeks back at £4k?

I really like the piece (as a canvas). Love the Vandal font used this way. Would have preferred it to be true to Shakespeare's original quote though of 'Something Wicked This Way Comes'.
Think it would have been... well, better.
Not sure about the Giclee of this... but a canvas, yes.

saw them in person ages ago and they are really bad quality prints. how they think they can get away with 650 each is beyond a joke.
the gallery told me at the time (november i think) that they were going to do a handpulled screenprint but obviously that didnt materialise.
i would advise that you see them in person before pulling the trigger
