[mouser]

Massive pieces, plenty of red dots, original work and hardly a murmur on here.

Me too.

Five of the paintings are detailed close-ups of derelict houses in the artist's resident town of Detroit, and a further five feature "old school" graffiti overlaid with colour fields in the style of late abstract expressionist painter Mark Rothko.

"Rothko talked about wrestling with opposing and competing elements to eventually discover an equilibrium, what he called a pocket of silence" says BORF. "For this show I was fighting through layers of ambivalence and opposites: graffiti as youth expression and Rothko as adult expression; the art market and property rights; education and improvisation, youth and adulthood."

Didnt even know it was on, cant attend something which is barely promoted

Couldn't agree more....

I've bought OG's and prints from Laz by the artist and knew sweet FA about this until it got posted on this board.....

Communicable Unease for sale......

[mouser]

Got an email about it middle of last week from the mail out.

[Cocteau 101]

[Deleted]

Good evening,

I have a couple of pieces on fleabay - prefer to deal (obv) on here.

Borf Communicable Unease 4/15 - looks like this:



Cost inc frame was £200, and I'd like something like this I guess?

I've also got a James Jessop 'Horror'. Numbered 1/100 - let me know?

Numerous references available from forum cognescenti available if required. Thanks......

[Simococo]

Definitely his best work to date.

[Andy'77]

Selling a number of items listed below, no trades, prices are fixed and exclusive of postage.

Banksy - NBG green in mint condition with COA - £3700
Banksy - Love rat in good condition COA on way - £1175
Borf - We're f**kin serious - 2/150 in £150 frame below cost of print £225

PM me if any take you fancy.

NBG:
Now removed from frame and still mint.


Love Rat:
Print is crease free, however there is a very faint border around the print that is barely noticable but is there none the less (see this thread: urbanartassociation.com/index.cgi?board=framing&action=display&thread=95414). Two small strips on top edge on back where tape has been removed, not noticeable from the front. Priced accordingly. To be sold unframed.




Borf:

[Andy'77]

Lots of interest in Love Rat, anyone looking for a NBG or some swearing on the wall?

[Phear Loathing]

Would absolutely love the NBG, but alas, not great timing....

[Andy'77]

Sorry for the delay on love Rat photos to those who asked, will definitely do them tonight.

[Andy'77]

Probably easier to post them here. Difficult to show the border but can just about make it out on the below, especially on the second pic. Right click on pics and select view in new tab to see them bigger.

[Andy'77]

All still available.

[Gard]

I'm looking for one of the Borf canvases in his Rothko series.
I would prefere some kind of trade, but can do cash.
Send me a pm if you got one

One that looks kind of like this
