Copyright!, by nealmason1986 on Jun 13, 2012 19:35:33 GMT 1, Hi,
I am just posting to gauge peoples opinions. I know everyones taste in art is different but with the sale of the "faile" book covers going on sale for $1200 dollars it prompted me to post this.
I am a big fan of Copyrights work and i am currently having my "Sweet nothings" framed up.
Now i paid £325 for "sweet nothings" and that is the most expensive hand finished screen print copyright has done so far.
Now in my opinion its worth every penny if not alot more money.
Its full of details and colour and alot of time has gone into it and i think its a far more attractive piece then the book covers faile has just produced.
I was just wondering peoples opinions on Copyright and if they think he will become big and why he is so under rated. I am sure he will become a big thing soon but for some reason you never really hear much about his work on here.
Whats everyones opinions. They would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Copyright!, by manty on Jun 13, 2012 20:14:29 GMT 1, I like copyright
i have 6 or so bits by him framed up, will he ever make it to the big time? impossible question for me to answer, his art is reasonably priced and i like it, if it goes up in price, that good, if not then its also ok.
there are lots of artists (which is a good thing) and if i had to guess, i would say only .0005% make it to the big money tree, but most hopefully have fun doing what they enjoy along the way trying to get to it, even if it always eludes them

I hope copyright becomes more popular! I know it's hard to make the big time etc but surely his popularity has to increase to some degree producing prints like sweet nothing's!
I have alot of stuff on my walls from lots of artists so I am not just biased to copyright but 3 or 4 of his pieces are the best things on my wall!

Faile is quite awful.
Used to like their stuff but its all over indulgent twaddle which has not moved on for about 5 years.
Also anything by the following artists:
Banksy Faile Walker Dface Insect
Will always get attention because of the name rather than the actual output.
On a side note... Met someone in a print queue once who used to pronounce faile like 'file'. Its fail. If your collecting it, say it right,
Im off to check out my barnksy and my warlker.
Just to add i like copyright but dont always like the weird little extras like numbers or typography, it sort of makes no sense. Just spray the girl.

Copyright!, by nealmason1986 on Jun 13, 2012 20:50:54 GMT 1, haha! I read that last week and no one mentioned Copyright as underrated!
I dont want this thread to turn out like that!
Just want peoples opinions on copyrights work and why people dont mention him as much as he deserves

In my opinion it's bloody awful and in five years time will be worth about £20.

I have liked Copyright for a long time....and I think he is progressing and trying new things. He certainly got a profile boost from the Apprentice....will be interesting to see if this gives him more confidence to try more new things!!!

perhaps they were from a different country (or part of the country) than you.

Copyright!, by nealmason1986 on Jun 13, 2012 22:13:43 GMT 1, I am not the biggest fan of the mash ups but that kitsune print is my favourite!
I think his profile has improved from apprentice and I know alot of his work has sold out quickly in gallery's!
I would also like to see something different! Maybe something other then prints of women and faces and maybe something completely different!
He certainly has the ability!

I think he has already made it to his 'big time'
Considering that he started with just the rose, and following a certain artist's work around London, and has since been around for about 7 years, quite successfully making prints, canvases etc, I'd say he has already reached the 'big time' for him.

Don't totally agree on the hyperbole, but in general I have to agree with the sentiment, especially on Dface and Nick Walker. very MOR. never moved anywhere. No respect from other artists. I own nothing by either.
I don't think Insect should be on the list. He (they originally) do still come up with some gems, even if the 'artistry' is minimal.
faile can also be great if you like pop art, but the constant output is too much IMO (BTW I own about 10 faile's and am certainly no faile hater...)
