mrchristopherrobinso I think the "tumbleweed" reference is meant to evoke the eerie silence in westerns when the protagonist enters an empty frontier town. In this case, eerie silence is what forumites encounter when they try to buy "Fight Club" because it's a highly sought after print that rarely, if ever, comes up for sale.

Looking for an unframed fight club print by Conor Harrington.
If you have one to let go, let me know.
If you have other prints by CH to let go, let me know, too.

Thinking I might sell my fight club and spend the money on a bike. What's the going price on one? How much would you buy one for?

Thank you.

They really vary between £200 for a hybrid up to £3,000 for a carbon fibre / handmade frame. 

I paid around £800 for mine but bought it through the 'ride to work scheme' so i paid around £48 a month for 10 months. It is now 7 years old but still fine.

Love this one! GLWTS

[markhicks1987]

There was one at prescription art that recently sold for £3000 and there seems to be another one for sale at an alternative gallery for 5-7k eur. So around the 3k mark seems to be the going rate it would seem

Hi Guys 
Anyone keen or know of a Fight club (the mess we make ) print for sale

THx

[Prescription Art]

Anyone have one of these prints for sale? Good prices paid!

[mrmistry]

Hi Guys,

I am moving flats and have no space for this beauty. Collection only (I am based in London).

I've bought from a few sellers here, but this is the first time I'm on the other side of the trade.

pm me if interested. I am looking for £5k and won't accept less given one sold for this on Prescription Art at that price with a much lesser frame and mine is also a rarer printers proof.

it's also on sale here @ 5.75k

Lovely work.

Just from a curiosity standpoint, could you tell me a little more about the work and your initial acquisition?

What did you like about the work and what do you think it represents?

[Aza]

The frame cost £1.8k?
That's crazy!

[mrmistry]

for me it represents the downfall of regal empire , and with it the shift to urban and modern culture that we now have (e.g. graffiti, powerful women in wwwk etc) . the deer is typically a majestic animal and is dead. I think that's symbolic. I love the artist's work as not only is he a very talented painter (e.g. the detail on the characters faces) but also very unique in his approach to the subject. I could go into more detailed analysis but essentially art is so subjective that you have to draw your own conclusions.

If you spent 1.8 k on a frame you have too much money

Really nice comment.

I have a huge (only slightly larger than Fight Club) Robert Longo that could not be framed with conventional glass because it would become too heavy. The only real alternative was anti-reflex and uv protection plexi glass which cost more than 1000 pounds per square meter. The total cost with frame and labour easily amounted to 1800 pounds... 

[winston]

Wow that's a crazy expensive frame job... Would you sell it rolled? Lol

What you are describing is Optium Museum Acrylic or similar, which is not what was used here. 

[stevenopoly]

my 2nd favorite CH print next to WWWK. Not sure why you want to get rid of it, but good luck with your sale.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

What a stunning print - How many PP were there?

Whats the spec on the frame/glass - the glass looks like it's very reflective?

S.

[mrmistry]

2.

4.5mm thick uv filtered Perspex (with reflection)

12ply thick white window mount
12mm deep support frame with centre cross-bar, 3mm backboard

to give you an idea of frame see below

[klyde]

Nice print. Reckon I could get that framed similar for about £300 though. Had huge prints framed with non reflective glass to museum standard etc before and the cost was nothing like this. Each to their own though. Good luck with the sale.

[vei]

I had mine framed for £370 with anti UV glass etc. I thought I'd spared no expense, spent ages looking at frames etc. So £1800 wherever that figure came from is amazing.

[mrmistry]

like others have said - it was mine to spend. life is about the process, not the result

[jonnytot]

The print is great the frame is great , but ultimately its the artwork thats for sale , most of us would reframe to match either other conors in our collections or to suit its new home .

[jonnytot]
