Yep - I can see the ending up at nearly £500 which rules me out.
Shame as I like it.

[soupy]

have there been any good jpg's of the prints released?

seems kinda of backwards to ask you to choose / pay for a print when you can barely tell what it looks like.

[bgt5002]

Well-- looks like they're ready. 350 is actually pretty solid.

It seems like a lot to me, particularly as the final price with taxes etc will be more. Fair play to Eine if he sells out but there comes a point when an artist's market is saturated and Eine must be close to this. That said, I quite like the image.

[iamzero]

Nope.

[bgt5002]

Close? 

[iamzero]

As a huge fan of Eine if the latest stuff was priced like Fairey prints I'd buy for the sake of it or even around half the current pricing but at £350 plus all the other costing on top I'm out. Very cautious on Bens prints since Revolution. I saw the print in person very recently and really was glad I never pulled the trigger.

[oxomo]

I agree with a lot of you guys, and think "Modern Art" is pretty weak, but do love the font. Pretty happy I don't like it; at £350 it is an easy pass.

Close? I think he is definitely at the point of saturation. Not quite Obey, but up there.

Conservatively speaking, in just 5 releases, Shep probably puts out as many prints as Ben Eine has put out ever... So yeah, he's not really anywhere near that.

[dazarino]

I have a nice spot for this, come on neon blue

Like this release more than Revolution. Hoping for an orange

[jayTown]

I like it. But like most of his stuff recently not enough to pull the trigger.

[ben3486]

Managed to bag this this evening. Couldn't really argue what color to get when ben told me the Orange was easily his favourite and the best print he thinks he has ever done. Also told me that he is "keeping five of every colour at elephants and castles that no one will ever see!" So kind of makes this an edition of ten?! Never met ben befor but he's a proper sound, down to earth guy. And some great work on show.

[kapusta]

Woah, that looks great!

Congrats looks better in your photos than on the site. Looks massively heavy glossed as well so the neon really glows.

Looks great, really pops. Must look great irl.

[ben3486]

Looks amazing, and you can't realt argue with the artist when he's telling you it's his favourite colour way and what he considers his best print yet.

[zefarrett]

yowza. it burns my eyes. in a good way!

[ben3486]

Only other pics I took from the show.

Had to bag the print early on as they were just all stacked up on the edge of the counter with people browsing through them like they were football stickers. Haha

[Art Fan 2011]

Think these will look really special judging by the images seen so far. For such a low edition 350 seems more than fair

[iamzero]

That Wonderful really is.

[South Bound]

Love that "Wonderful" canvas

[Simococo]

Just got back from the show. The new circus font canvas was magical. The prints were cool but the wording didn't grab me..

[kapusta]

Yup, that Wonderful canvas is awesome. And from the sound of it, there may not be much hope for us online buyers for those Modern Art prints. Still, crossing my fingers.

[ben3486]

The speculate and calculate had Arabic lettering ghosted into the backgrounds. As did a few others. Nice little touch I thought for where the show was

[Simococo]

The wonderful canvas was 12k USD and 122cm square

From what ben was saying when I breifly chatted to him there was no plan to sell online. Only out of artspace dubai. And keeping some for elephants and castles.

[Art Fan 2011]

Prints will NOT go up online for sale so if you couldn't make the show or haven't emailed to try and pre buy one you will be out of luck! Anymore pics from the show anyone could share?

[robertjones]

Orange looks good to me !
