Gorgeous. She is one of those artists who’s...an artists artist. Creating from the heart, nonstop. Involved with many luminaries, in their own spheres of dominance. I wonder if she’ll ever be ‘commercial’? With her track record one could easily argue she’ll be in all the major museums in a few decades. Nonetheless, this is beautiful, and a nice departure from her portraitures. In a proper frame it would really tie a room together. Also, dude, chinaman is not the proper nomenclature.

Bump before the Bay.

Not sure if any of you are Swoon fans, but I was just on the Louis Buhl website and noticed they had the 19 color hand-pulled screenprint for cost.  Signed /numbered.  Edition of 150.

I am a big Swoon fan so I definitely picked one up...

just thought I’d let any other Swoon fans know about it if they like the print...

Oh...and apparently printed at Pop!nk...in my opinion they do fantastic work...

and the shipping is a little expensive but I asked LB about it and they say it is shipped flat and insured so...still a steal compared to my efforts to find on on the grey market...

Shipping seems crazy high for an 18x24 print. I live 120 miles from the gallery and they're charging $78 for FedEx ground!

[jimmyjam]

They have had these up for decades... exaggerating but they have been available for a long time.

There were hand finished ones which were nice but you probably can find one of these for less than retail if you wait long enough. These hasn’t moved in a very very long time. They show up on eBay cheap.

[gmidd]

Yeah, looks like they still have over 50 left. Maybe if the shipping wasn't insane they'd actually sell some. I actually almost bought one of these when these were released but never ended up pulling the trigger. It's a nice print though!

[yoss]

Hey...I was just putting this out there for swoon fans like me that didn’t know about it. $250 total for a gorgeous (IMO) Swoon print that is signed and numbered is a steal. She is probably one of my top 5 artists and has been making art for decades (not exaggerating).

Yes, shipping is high...but $175 for just the print is a no-brained for me. It’s funny that people comment about how long these have sat but there are 100 people that bought Oli Epp’s “spin me round” for $1000. To each their own, but I was just trying to make a post that there are still Swoon prints at original cost if anyone liked it.

I should have just made a post about trying to flip some print that just came out yesterday...

Its great to post things like this once and while - but stating this a "steal" is simply not correct. 

Just letting people know you can probably find it cheaper on ebay so it saves them money. That's not flipping that's saving money.

Well...everything I have said in this thread includes comments like “in my own opinion”. But thank you for being the opinion police and adding that these sit around for a long time. I have been looking for a cheap one for a while and someone was kind enough to provide a great offer price but it is still above what it would cost for the original price plus shipping.

Maybe you should offer up how long I should wait to get a better deal...if you don’t like the print or the cost, and adding literally nothing to the conversation, then just pass on by. Again...I was trying to post something positive for the board and you pop in with negativity. This is a forum and everyone has every right to post what they want, but did your post really add anything to the thread but negativity?

[yoss]

And you cannot fin it cheaper on eBay...I have watched and even made offers...

[South Bound]

Swoon collector here, if i was in the market for a piece this is a good buy for the price. But like everyone else mentioned, the shipping is a bit steep.

[jimmyjam]

I bought one of these three years ago. This is a VERY OLD print.

I held on to it for two years. I do like swoon and thought exactly what you are saying... Cheap/nice signed print...

It's an ok print... Not great once you get it. Tried to sell 2 1/2 years later.... less than retail. You can put it up on ebay for whatever you like and let it sit there for years....

These have been up for years.. will still be up for years... unless they finally pull them which they should.

As long as you can buy them new from source for 175, which has been the past three years or more... you should except to get less for it. I sold mine for around $200 but after shipping and fees it was less than what I paid for it. 

They don't even list the date on this print because it's really old.

Trust me I'm trying to help you here and not shoot you down. Get the print if you like swoon, that is why I got it and did hold on to it for awhile - just never put it up, but it's not a steal or a good deal at all. It does seem that way but from experience of owning one it really isn't. Unless, they pull it which they should at this point. Then yes it's a good deal.

Fair play for posting about a print you actually like by an artist you genuinely like, typically on here price is the primary concern for some.

Swoons day will come I'm sure, she's one of the most interesting artist discussed on here from time to time.

[hrvstgld]

I'd take the Denialex-PM if you still have it.

[gorkie]

Hadn't realised the volume of recognised artists that have contributed prints when I posted. Quite a line up.

[Hairbland]

Swoon’s doing something at NYC’s Met this Sunday, new works (in The Met!), she’ll be there.

[Rouen Cathedral]

How did I miss this thread. Been looking forever for one of these.

Shipping is high but no brained on buying this.

Not sure about you guys saying they are on eBay for half price. Definitely haven’t seen that.

[User Error]

Weird it's still available from the original link, link, link. More words... Moar. Moarrrrr MOOOOAAAARRRRR

[Rouen Cathedral]

Print came. Nicely packaged and very happy with the purchase.

Still can’t believe I missed this all the time.
