I believe cost was more than £4500. So I think he'd take your offer. Lol.

I think cost was around £3700 so not far off now

I've heard Os Gemeos are not going to be releasing another print. This will allegedly be their one and only official signed fine art print.

It is no secret that their next show will be with Lehmann Maupin - so expect prices to go stratospheric.

This low edition print, already the most affordable piece you can purchase, will disappear from the secondary market by next year as they end up with collectors of this genre/style.

Good luck with your sale - I could never part with mine - an instant classic in my opinion.

Grade A hype and fear mongering right here.  I take it you own one of these?  

Care to share your source for your assertion that they will never create another print?  What they posted on their own facebook seemed pretty cut and dry to me: 

"We want to thank everyone who participated in the 99 prints release! We are so excited that so many people showed interest in the edition and hope to create more editions in the future. Stay tuned for all of our future releases!!!"

Oh, and here is where the last auction ended (4000GBP), so this one is still overpriced: cgi.ebay.com/itm/390881312552

The part where I say "I could never part with mine" - is full disclosure that own one yes.

My source is from close to JR's camp. This facebook message was posted after successfully selling out in seconds from 99prints.

Since then the twins have been bitterly disappointed witnessing the blatant flipping of this print all over the web. There is a reason they don't like selling to the UK market and control their originals tightly.

No hype - I would argue just providing the balance and an alternative perspective to the posts above.

A little like you posting about how undervalued the AEC was on another thread...unlike me who posted full disclosure of owning the Os Gem print - you didn't qualify if you own any Interesni Kazki? Grade A hype? Maybe you are the one that is guilty? No?

[eschiff]

just to back up your point, i enquired about pieces in their recent sao paolo show and was told by the gallery they were hesitant sell to the UK because of the amount of flipping of this print (most ebay listings from here).  Luckily fiancee family lives in brasil so could avoid that  

don't worry about him though by the way, he has some weird agenda against the twins...surprised he has time to rail against this print when there are so many shite artists he has to hype so he can flip.

[Deleted]

Not surprised at all that didnt sell for 4000, it had no condition description, could have had damage and no comeback, also seller only shipping to uk, i know of 2 that sold recently for 5k, 1 privately and 1 to a gallery, if you dont get 4500 keep it, great quality print.

Not sure how you are drawing a comparison with my comment regarding the AEC in another thread.  I'm stating a fact of what gallery pricing is based on their current exhibition.  Whether I own any of IK's art is irrelevant, as my comment is factual, not speculative like yours.  Feel free to contact Studio Cromie to confirm pricing if you think I'm blowing smoke.

Oh, and eschiff, what agenda do I have against the twins?  I think they are great artists, and would love to own one of their paintings.  My comments surrounding this release was regarding the manner in which it was released and the hype from those looking to cash in, which has become quite apparent as it seems almost half of the run has hit the market at one point or another.  

[eschiff]

alittle just strange to always see you on these threads. And with your evidence based approach to all things on this board, i would love to see where you have seen half for sale. I must say at least the twins have staying power, you'll probably still be railing against them in 5 years when they have another show/print release long after these fly by night artists like whatson, ..., zacharesgevivsich and the others are gone.

[alittle]

eschiff, I'm still a bit lost. I'm not "railing against" them at all. Like I said, I love their work. I think they will be infinitely more successful than 99% of the rubbish on this board. I have no interest in the artists you referenced. Half was a hyperbole. 12 have sold on ebay, and I've seen at least a dozen listed on here since the drop, so perhaps a quarter of the run is accurate. I think the piece is nice, and I have a lot of respect for those that purchased to hang and enjoy, like yourself.

Can you quit hyping please I need it to drop a bit further so that I can buy one!

I don't see the attraction of this at all..

But sometimes I'm a bit slow, I only got my first Failes and Eines last year, so give me a little time :-)
