not sure what to think of this release....  sandra's work doesn't seem to relate to skate decks but i guess if you like sandra's work & skating, then it would be a great pickup.

personally, i think the triptych breaks up the image too much.  would much rather have a silkscreen on paper with 1 single image.  maybe if each deck had a separate image and scrap the triptych look that would be better (like the full body images she released in the past?).

Quite easy to do actually. Used to do it with skate decks when I was younger and now do it with snowboards.

I like the fact they are on skate decks and three of them in this case. I have recently seen a lot of artists doing the decks. They seem to be at a pretty decent price point and will work perfectly for me in a play area for the kids. This could be the first of several for me. Question for me is how do you display them, hang them?

Yeah I think i'll hang them closer together than what COA's pic show's.

I believe they come with a mount thingy that you screw into the wall

Loads of diferent ways.

These are good for snowboards but you can easily DIY it if you don't want to pay the extra for the branded ones. It will depend on the shape of the deck whether or not it will hold on the wall.

so that for sure! I have the basquiat skull from MOMA and when I originally hung them with gaps. It's clear the gaps in images from the original sellers is a way to show they are all seperate skateboards, but they look best hung flush. And yes, the hardware to hang boards is really easy to use.

These are
Awesome!

These turds will never sell out. Too many and too expensive.

One of them did already?

[seanburke]

Spent ages looking for the best way to hang decks, then spoke to a mate who just used either fishing line or a lace through the top holes with a basic picture hook behind......

Works perfect.

Obvious but great! Those Sk8ology brackets are great too as they elevate the deck off the wall whilst holding securely. Cheap too!

Love this one, and very happy to add it to my collection! Can't wait to see how it pops in person!

Considering there's no framing costs, these were bargain IMO, and a nice change to prints!

[Art Fan 2011]

Bargain they were not - $700 for 3 printed pieces of wood! Sandra seems to love churning our more and more weird and wonderful stuff; cups, scarf's and now skateboards - lucky she is loyal to COA or Art Republic would have her doing lenticular bookmarks and place mats for Xmas

The best image of the 2 sold out, the fact the other one is still available speaks volumes when usually her work is sold in seconds...

available in a urban outfitters near you

I always thought her artwork looks like the stuff you'd get from here for your 'man cave'

I would probably have gone for them if they were half the price and nothing more, seriously overpriced.

[corinthia]

I don't disagree with most of the negative or sarcastic comments posted. But I am still happy I got one. I think her art work lends itself well for these decks. It's a hell of a bargain at $700 for wood. I have paid thousands and thousands of $'s for a piece of paper or canvas. To me it's all art and to each his own!!

Don't forget the lightbox. Another triumph!

Now the other one has.

Here is an example of boards hung with the sk8tology brackets in my "man cave."

If hung with gaps it makes the image unaligned in a way that my eye dislikes.

although it does appear that the Chevrier's were printed with the intent to include gaps.

I am very close to buying a Basquiat print on decks...This might be the wrong thread but does anyone know if Open Editions ever close/expire/end/or morph into Limited Editions?

[d.r. perseus]

I wouldn't know and with regards to that image never cared. Its my favorite by him and can't really be owned in any other form i appreciate....except the OG of course. A little out of my price range
