I have this in my kitchen - it makes me smile every day.
No one else I know likes it!

hi all

maybe i've just missed this lot but are they new ?

cheers

[atkuefler]

Thats been there for a bit.

[bond]

cheers - not looked at the page in a little while and was sure they looked new.

[paulah]

He has just released some new prints on his site

www.slowlydownward.com

[atkuefler]

Not my favorite. I feel like his Pacific Coast was his only really good print so far. Not a huge fan of his other stuff. Maybe a bit biased because I am a huge Radiohead fan.

[Art-el]

Opinion's please.

With Stanley Donwood's latest newsletter anouncing a new show with Laz in the Summer are we likely to see Doonwood's stock/price rise in the next few month's?

Combined with the success of last years 'London views' after which his 'Pacific Coast' Red sold out followed by a number of the Limited Edition Linoprints. Also 'Pacific Coast' is now into the 150's of 200 so will fairly soon be Sold out. What will happen?

Combined with the added factor of Radiohead fans possibly buying his work I just wondered what people thought?

And yes before anyone ask's I do like SOME of his stuff and also have a couple of prints.

Thanks

[finsburyparkranger]

Probably. Operation Phantom Fury is a nice print too.

[dkla]

I have Donwood's "Borealis" print from Eyestorm and love it. I'm not sure about the Laz effect, but it can only help increase visibility of his work (and because it's generally great stuff, increased demand will likely follow IMO).

[Pure Evil]

He also had a show in Barcelona recently i think , and he had a page in the MODERN PAINTERS magazine... so he is definitely on the UP... PLUS his stuff rocks..

[Art-el]

Thanks Guys/Gals?

Always good to hear other forum members thoughts on these things.

Thanks for your time

Peace

I think Mr Donwood has reached the heights he will ever reach. I really like his work but I'm not sure Laz will give him any extra kudos or exposure than the global exposure he has had through Radiohead.

[smashedhat]

I agree. I'm not sure the "Laz effect" is as real as the "Banksy effect", but certainly I won't pass up on the opportunity to see some lovely new Donwood pieces.

[lesroy]

I really like his work. The 4 new Eyestorm prints are very nice and I have the "Happy Families" from POW that is wicked

I'd deafinatlely like to see his Laz show, although Im not sure he will Balloon afterwards.

[Daniel Silk]

Yeah, I cant understand why Stanley Donwoods work is not more popular I dunt have any pieces yet but I have my eye on a few

We have a forum at www.StanleyDonwood.co.uk ;D

[pompeyboy]

Got a few of his pieces, War Seriously (on black), and Pacific coast, both are splendid pieces but i feel too much of the work is based on Radiohead/Thom Yorke album stuff. The relationship is abit Jamie Hewlett/Gorillaz like which means alot of the work will only appeal to the bands fans. If you don't like the music you won't buy the image. His new stuff on eyestorm is pretty fab though!!

I have just update the Stanley Donwood forum a bit ;D

The 4 new Eyestorm prints are not really new they have been there for months, Stanley Donwood is an established artist but doesnt seem to be in the same circles as "Urban, Street art" Im sure though, as all of Laz's show fire a buying frenzy, It will effect him to a certain degree, Ive looked at the prints a few times in Eyestorm and they are OK but even when they knocked 25% off they still did not sell.

I almost didn't buy a Cnut because of the Thom Yorke connection, but in the end the strength of the image won through, and I haven't regretted it for one minute.

I don't care if Donwood suddenly becomes The Next Big Thing, or fades into obscurity with the rest of the print run unsold - I love it to pieces and that's all that matters.

[ABC]

That is all that matters, agree

I have had my eye on a "Cnut" print for ages now I must make sure I pick one up before they disappear

[taco]

Just saw that couple of donwoods prints now sold out on his own site. Think initially donwood was slow to sell cos of price compared to others (£250 vs £50) but now that other prints have "caught up" it doesnt' seem as much. Anyone got the Cnut print and could post some pix? think might get one...

[ABC]

I think his best print is Storm Shadow

[Art-el]

Just noticed that 'Pacific Coast' is now sold out on his site and I'm pretty sure they were the only outlet that had any remaining.

Stanley Donwood 'Pacific Coast' White

This superb 9 colour screen print is now sold out on the slowly downwards official Donwood website. This was the album cover for Radioheads 'Hail to the thief'. It seems that along with last years London Views show at the Lazerides Gallery and another one planned for the summer that Donwoods work will finally be taken a lot more seriously rather than being labelled an album artist.

"My painting Pacific Coast was used for Hail to the Thief," says Donwood, who is sometimes known as Radiohead's "sixth man". "It was inspired by the landscape of LA. I was being driven along in a car and there were all these signs everywhere, big and brash, to catch your attention. I just painted everything I saw."
Stanley Donwood (2006

I'll shut up now

[smashedhat]

The pacific coast is a great print, I'm glad I got in when I did.

[taco]

Pacific coast is excellent, looks so much better in the flesh. nice to know that stanley does all his own printing as well. However, after red and white I just hope he doens't do a million colourways and instead gets some more new art out. (you hearing me as well Eelus! )

[owl]

Having lived in or near the Smoke for a long time now I picked up his Lino prints of the tourist attractions after seeing them at the Laz show as I think they're top draw - only missed out on the special Cnut that he did on some slightly poncey paper.
Don't much care for the rest though - each to his own.

[ABC]

Poncey paper? Is that 250 gsm or 300
