I am surprised that the ed 100 with the original rat in ply didn't sell out. It's his iconic image. Perhaps it's just a tad too pricey?

Blek Le Rat 30 Year Retrospective, by saint on Nov 16, 2013 19:53:39 GMT 1, Surprised me as well mate, original rat on wood for not much more than a print these days, was a no brainier for me and I have mine siting on my shelf.
No love for Blek anymore it seems, shame, he's a legend.

Hmmm its a funny one this, What does seem a tad expensive now felt like an absolute no brainer at the time.

Interesting to read that Mike, I've never read anything he's said that has caused the same reaction to me, but perhaps I haven't read enough? Would be interested to see what caused this, any elaboration?
Funnily enough I was discussing artwork with a friend the other night and he asked me whether I thought I would like Picasso etc (a range of artists from da Vinci onwards) if I met them, or whether, much like the so called artists who hand around the east end these days looking like homeless people, I would think they were up their own arse typical artist bellends. I couldn't answer...

Blek Le Rat 30 Year Retrospective, by tartarus on Nov 17, 2013 21:12:17 GMT 1, Yep I had mine sitting on panel pins on the wall and it warped like a motherfucker! Think it spent six months to a year under a huge pile if records before going for framing. Seems fine now thankfully!
And yeah surrounded by water is a bit of a mare! Ventilation seems to be the key there though.
