I heard Clapton bought out a whole series that Lee Quiones did, over 12 I believe. It's a series of all old funk/r&b/ and break beat soul albums that were the classic beats that hip hop (rap, break dancing, graffitti) was based off of.

It's a bunch of paintings of record covers like "Shaft in Africa" then he'd do a background color scheme that goes with the record cover he painted.

And Ron Woods of the Rolling stones collects Paul Insect, says a Juxtapoz interview from the one w/PInsect on the cover.

Rock and roll/classic rock heads recognizing/repecting and purchasing Street art now, that's cool.

If rock and roll is based off of blues guitar riffs. Then I guess it's not too far fetched to see them(clapton and ron woods) being open enough to appreciate hip hop influenced street art.

I wonder if it's there own passion for collecting that brought them to these artist, their own clever business/collecting move.

or if they have Business Associate Manager coaxing them through it all,

or is it there personal research/ good taste that brought them to these outsider street art shows. I wonder.

Has anyone here who has been to New York NOT been to Failes studio?

Lister paints mirror images of most his work so Faile have the other I guess.

No, I got over that feeling along time ago.

Getting a little bit more on track This is one of the best super heroes canvas I have seen by Lister. Good luck with the sale ;D

[BME]

its gorgeous. i think that the bin is very fair...

[gbh]

love the piece but I'm not so sure the BIN is that much of a bargain...

it 81x81 for 3000 gbp

as far as I'm aware most lister bits are going from galleries at or around the following (AU/US/UK galleries) ...or at least I know of galleries where the pieces can be bought at the below prices....

130x130
3500 gbp

170x170
4400 gbp


just putting it out there..
awesome piece, love it.
best of luck with the sale

[BME]

I can see where you are coming from gbh, but I'm going with the size doesn't matter line here- the image is one of the best that I've seen and far stronger than many of the larger canvases. 3k seems fair enough to me.

[gbh]

after all, it's how you use it isn't ....
or that's what my mrs tells me anyway

8+)

seriously, I'd like to think Frankie was being sarcastic.

[meatbag]

Will take a bit of a loss on the for quick sale. Still trying to fund this new Shepard piece. Help out a brotha... you will get a deal. Anything reasonable will be considered.


Super This Super That #1 canvas by Anthony Lister 120 x 120 cm.

Added some nice items including originals by Shepard Fairey on the bay...

Yep, u know money is tight when a great piece like that goes for a song ;D

[Francis]

Lack of documentation really killed it. I know I wouldn't buy something without the proper provenance and paperwork. (Not that I am doubting the authenticity of this at all. It just has no certificates)

[solar77]

That plus the lack of detail. Not one of Lister's best IMHO.

[gbh]

I thought what it went for was a FAIR price for what it is (see my earlier comments).

[chief]

buyer is deadbeat already said he misbid blah blah blah. fuck.

I mean, there IS no authentication from Anthony's work what more do people want? It's not like Banksy where people are doing oils on canvas bootlegs. Plus the pictures of the painting next to the other Lister's in my collection should solidify any doubt as is. On top of that responded to all of questions saying "anthony will be staying with me in two days, any kind of authentication he can do I'm sure he'll be more than happy to do it"

ughh. leaving for europe tuesday and broke.
