Banksy โข Girl With Red Balloon Print, by dotdot on Feb 11, 2023 20:20:03 GMT 1, a few words.
the prints you've seen....
how white is it ?
how red is it ?
what is the paper like ?
corners ?
rear of the print ? ... and is it framed , by whom and ... everything else that goes with a frame / sun fade lines etc.
(have you actually looked at these things in BRIGHT DAYLIGHT ?) tungsten will not cut it in this regard , btw. led ? NO.
Did you plenty of take notes ? they will all be different.
...the person or gallery / source - what are they like ? any signs of life (useful) / death (can we do it now..!) ?
coa ? is whose name is it ?
..there you go...
oh and price circa ? ยฃ100k , for all the trimmings - (ie you feel safe and are being taken care of)
if you see exactly what you want to buy - you'll know it !
If that box is not ticked.. you will remember this ... in years to come.
one last , perhaps ironic , question - are you planning to frame it and hang on the wall ? consider insurance.
..now put some loud music on and the kettle... chill. (if you drink whiskey - pour a wee glass and savour..)
..
ps - no, i don't work for any galleries and am not affiliated with anyone.

Help required, by dotdot on Feb 9, 2023 10:09:08 GMT 1, OP, contact a restorer - have them do an assessment then contact the framer with the detail and the cost.
Advise the framer that you want the work to be repaired and that he is clearly responsible since the work has been in his care since de-tubing (does such a word exist?).
Framers are sometimes nice people - sometimes otoh they are just like others who doesn't actually value customers (they don't last long)... they are 'the others'.
Was this framer recommended to you ?
Don't forget to advise others of your experience.
glwy "framer"..
(for context we've all been there - at least once ! ).

Heni x Invader 'Rubikcubism', by dotdot on Feb 4, 2023 17:16:48 GMT 1, fwiw a few words.
the works are for... new invader collectors or old , or both
the work are invader works or works which are an homage to other works
..which idea works for you ?
if you're new you might be tempted by the style in which case you'll see the Roxy and MM
if you're actually in search of inv you'd opt for either of the first two.
Either way ... who is going to fork for a set ? i know you are out there... not many of you.
me ? what does it matter what i do.
one last thought - the striving to reproduce imperfection is a good idea where it shows in the images above.
good luck to those who can see the work/s - and ... no mention of nfts ? fresh air.

Visit Sรฃo Paulo ๐ง๐ท Brazil Street Art, Galleries & Events, by dotdot on Jan 8, 2023 11:48:10 GMT 1, first off - have a great time, you all will.
places - rio ? not enough. Don't try to walk up Corcovado , btw - taxi it.
sp - plenty - way more than rdj
If you're on insta i'd suggest you contact both artists and galleries directly for their advice / guidance. If you're going for a few weeks try to grasp at the very least simple Portuguese. (in my experience many many people are friendly ... but not many speak english)
As with most places - there's plenty safe and plenty dangerous so.. with that in mind , please play safe. As with a few / many here - we're jealous and would love to go too... but it's just that.... 12 hour flight , too far away.
Enjoy and please feel free to come back and let us know how it goes....
it is a wonderful place in so many ways.

the sound ! that sound - the beat - perhaps not one for a streamer !
when i think of sound and brutality this does get close.
