Thanks!

Hi guys,

I've got a mix media on paper by The Connor Brothers "And those who were seen dancing" ed of 10..flat packed with COA..it's a sold out edition and it's actually a pretty image but I have another Connor Brothers piece and this would have to go..

Similar to the one from Hang-up.

hanguppictures.com/limited-edition-prints/and-those-who-were-seen-dancing-1

Located in London and would prefer a face to face deal.

Gallery price at 1.5k + VAT.. Looking for 1.2k ONO

If anyone is interested please message me.

Best,
Cat

SOLD

This is awesome! Love these guys! I'm gonna start a thread about them if there isn't one.

[The Silence]

Probably better to post my request here. Those of you who know me know that my usual preference is Banksy, Invader and Harland (with a little Lichtenstein on the side) however I'm looking to branch out. Been looking at the Connor Brothers lately. Bought a few prints to start me off but now looking at some originals. Does anyone have any of the Pulp Fiction hand painted books or the hand painted originals? Specifically Every Angel Has A Past or Sane Men.

London based would be better. Send me a message with the details/prices etc.

[Everyone Owes]

Have you contacted them direct? Am sure they're open to doing you a 1/1 in a new cover with the slogan of your choice at their current mkt asking price £800

Something new from The Connor Brothers, very appropriate after all of the POW goings on

Quite nice looking. There is a lack of Shakespeare and “much ado” and this context provided the original humour.

Thanks for heads up. Might get one.

[kember]

Picked one of these up, love their stuff.

[Winks]

Anyone get theirs yet

The thread title led me to believe it was a reference to people who are duped by The Connor Brothers and actually purchase their work.

My assumption was that this would be a condemnation of collectors who fail to educate themselves, leaving them helplessly unarmed and incapable of identifying artistic output which is:

(i) derivative;

(ii) formulaic; and

(iii) soullessly market-driven — i.e. where the starting point to the creation process is questions like,

- "Whose schtick is popular right now?"
- "What's trendy and easily copied?"
- "What will sell to less-informed buyers who won't realise we're just rehashing the ideas of other people?"



I clicked on this thread to voice my agreement before realising I had misunderstood the title.

Thank you met.
I’ve bought one of the mugs so I presume the above includes myself.
Whilst we’re examining people’s failings have you ever been called pompous?



Edit.
I’ve read your previous posts where you advise us of your thought process when posting. That you consider what family and friends would think of your words. Perhaps you might want to add, “would I say that to someone’s face?”

Whilst on this forum you’ve managed to criticise my framing, criticise my liking of a print and now call me a mug, for buying a mug. Well done you.

You obviously congratulate yourself on your forthright style as you cruise round here mocking members’ grammar, taste and preferences. To me you are pretentious and boring.

I love threads like this

Appreciate the post artfan2011, just went on to get one of these, and sold out. Bummer. Anyone not liking theirs, just let me know.

That’s a bit strong, Bambi is definitely worse...

[danstevens]

The Connor brothers are incredibly popular right now - I went to their show at Maddox the other week and the work in the flesh is extremely strong (and the show had completely sold out before I got there!). So a good opportunity here for someone to buy an original piece

Great seller as well - buy with confidence

[omeel]

Can vouch for seller, great guy to deal with - GLWS

[rosac]

very amusing have been selling like hot cakes at maddox. GLWTS

[kfroms]

''selling like hot cakes at Maddox'' - is that meant to be a positive or negative comment?

[artearte]

I appreciate your support for the OP, however, we need to be careful about incorrectly promoting these guys as artists - new members may interpret your statement as The Connor Brothers are successful artists - when in fact they are not even artists - indeed the polar opposite.

Totally disagree

It is up to members to make their own opinions of art and artists. It is members responsibility to ensure that fraudulent activity is highlighted but this is step too far.

I deleted my post as to not disrupt the OPs thread but how is this a step too far in calling out this artist? The Connor Brothers did sell their art for profit under false pretense. The very definition of fraud in fact.

This discussion should be in another thread ultimately and I won’t say anymore here.

[Poster Bob]

Negative. I think their clientele is the cast of TOWIE.
