DOLK 'VANDAL' AND 'IDEA PAINTER' NEXT WEEK!, by Deleted on Jun 28, 2014 13:18:30 GMT 1, Still don't get the vandal image; a lot like the dot dot dot stuff. When you see it, it looks very cool. It looks badass, or like something you'd see in a Vegas penthouse. Aside from that, however, the actual message of the image isn't very deep.
I personally think something like Prison Painter is 1000x better than Vandal, and that Idea Painter is a deal better as well since it at least has something to say (although you can easily say the image of kid drawing ironic object on wall has been overly done in the street art world).

Edit: Of Vandal I mean.

I'm saying there isn't much of a message. Maybe the nonexistence of innocence, inherent radicalism and culture-invoked nationalism clashing, subversion vs. allegiance.
Even saying that's the message is a stretch; the whole bandana/balaclava concept doesn't ring as original enough to fascinate me in the way some of his other pieces do (i know, everything is derivative, but still).
The kid has the stare down, I will give you that. And I'm not trying to crap on this print really - I still think that was a fair price (original price) for the print; I'm a bit surprised people are paying loads for this particular print, though. Especially given the other works by Dolk, which I view as comparatively better (minus Evolution).

DOLK 'VANDAL' AND 'IDEA PAINTER' NEXT WEEK!, by Mordecai on Jun 28, 2014 14:37:48 GMT 1, Perhaps. I heard he said in an interwiev it's a self portrait.
He, as others, used to hide from authorities doing their thing in the streets. Now the city of Bergen pay to protect the murals and he is a respected Norwegian artist.
I also think there could be an economical motivation. We all know popularity of Teddy and Kitty.

DOLK 'VANDAL' AND 'IDEA PAINTER' NEXT WEEK!, by Nick on Jun 28, 2014 14:54:32 GMT 1, Precisely that. He has said it represents the child who was shunned and had to hide from the authorities in a city that showed him no love. Now there has been a role reversal and everyone wants to interview and take his picture. So here it is, a portrait of that same kid that has made the man. Seriously powerful image in my eyes, far more so than idea painter, which I also admire.

DOLK 'VANDAL' AND 'IDEA PAINTER' NEXT WEEK!, by dazarino on Jul 4, 2014 9:51:06 GMT 1, great frame job  i think there are a few reasons why this image is so popular, the norwegian flag represents the artists home nation, this would go great with a kitty/teddy and apparently its a self portrait of Dolk himself as a kid. I haven't seen a print version yet up close (apart from online photos) so can't comment but the canvas is just stunning and because of its larger size, the texture of the canvas really adds to the image.
I did see the idea painter canvas at the bergen show and it looked amazing, maybe some prints just transfer to print better than others

DOLK 'VANDAL' AND 'IDEA PAINTER' NEXT WEEK!, by gatecrasher on Nov 4, 2022 18:55:08 GMT 1, I missed Halloween but I'm still bringing this thread back from the dead.
I have a mint condition, stored flat, never framed, main edition Vandal that I've tried to sell a couple of times over the years.
For various reasons, quiet buyers, low ballers and my laziness, I still have it and would happy for somebody to frame it up and display it.
No idea what its worth. Has Dolks star begun to rise again ? Im UK based, is the £ so low it's a steal for any Norwegians ?
Happy to take advise on value or feel free to punt me an offer.
Thanks
