I'm still shocked I was able to buy a POW WWT by BLU from a famous Gallery in London During Black Friday for 300 gbp (shipping was free ) ,
i didn't believe it until I received the print in perfect condition.

I wonder if they knew the Market Value for this print, or even who is BLU at this point!

Christmas has come early this year for me,

[Criminal Mischief]

Wow, that's a steal. Great find. If you come across another one let me know!

I was expecting a better hammer price

How do you see the hammer, or any final, price on Digard? Can't see it anywhere.

[urbanchek]

Result will be  visible after some days. I saw the auction live.

I think it's fair (from my past / recent experience selling an original drawing from BLU)

[Skizz 82]

I think 17k it’s pretty cheap
But it’s not easy to say without the condition report

[stuff]

As long as I couldn’t afford it I don’t see how it’s a bad result. 😅

[stuff]

I’ll take one like that. 🫢

Shocked

was during the Black Friday days, this gallery was listing a lot of old art;
they had this a 750 gbp on offer at 300 gbp I couldn't believe it.
I think they bought directly from pow and never pull out of the tube, but when I opened it it was in perfect untouched conditions still with POW tissue, and never framed before.
The gallery is HANG-UP pictures but don't ask them, I already did and they had nothing by BLU but this one.

[The Italian One]

by the way looking for Rennes that's the onlyone I miss by blu to complete the collection

i have a WWT and YMCA to trade plus cash or only cash if you have one please get in touch

Congrats with this great find @the Italian One!
It seems Hang-Up really wanted to get rid of their "old stock",
because even £750 for a WWT is a bargain.
The only other Blu art work that I’ve seen for sale at Hang-Up was years ago, and was this hand-finished HQ.

Massively delayed reply but want to share the info.  Gaza Strip was covered years ago.  It used to be near the Prague opera house overlooking an empty lot.   They built a parking garage there in maybe 2015.

Blu “pink man”, the Berlin version of Demos is gone.

thanks for the heads up -- any idea what happened, or when?

you can make out part of it on Google Street view from March 2022 (it is tagged here, though marked "permanently closed").

in any event, it lasted a long time for a street mural, 2007-202x?

[shadowplay]

The building was refurbished and the wall that Blu was on was plastered up/filled in with concrete wash a few months back.

I used to pass it every day on my way to work, sad it's gone. 

[321-]

Apparently it happened in December and the developer is citing the energy savings law as reason.

[sapi]

a Blu CMYK print was posted for sale on Artsy for £3,750 (~$4822) on March 10.
it was marked sold on March 13
*not related to me, just noting for price reference since it is so hard to figure pricing for Blu's work

[lacklisted]

Can anyone advise me on the current selling price of a framed BLU funeral Print obtained directly from POW. ?
Thanks in advance. 👍

[hellfo]

About 2500 €.

[lacklisted]

Thanks.
