New print from Dran , by matgab on Apr 22, 2020 8:10:30 GMT 1, Cant help but think that the only way this fantastic artist can have his talent really recognized is to be properly represented and managed by professionals. what a waste. They are making serious $$$ though keeping him in the dark with a very limited range of collectors. I'm sorry vtrapenard (You seems "penard" so its ok)  I don't think what you said. His talent is recognized, I don't get why you thing he sould be better managed. They are making what they want like they want, and that power no ?

Fact is he doesn't care its vastly different. Management cares because of $$$. So yes, power of money - to them.
Do you remember the montmartre lottery where they kept out of the draw the large canvases to sell them to privileged collectors (me being one of them). Do you think this is fair to him? Do you think he knows? Same happened in quai de Seine.
It a mockery of his fan base as well - so no, i think you are wrong. And any serious Dran collectors knows that as well. Look at the market nowadays compared to last year. He is losing his closest fans, people who have been collecting for years if not for a full decade now. Prints all over, lower quality, low prices... Its a shame really thats what it is.
But we have seen such talent wasted before because of management. Nothing new in the art world

New print from Dran , by matgab on Apr 22, 2020 17:50:52 GMT 1, Ok,
So you know better than me, as you said your are one of them. (Recently I think to contact them...) Why he doesn't control it ?
I didn't know about those previous show in Montmartre and quai de saine. (I can't be there) So you buy one ?  Saddly like you said, power of money... He is strong for it, show in london, cash only etc....he want cash and he find a way to get quickly.
Ok it's maybe a shame how he do with his fan/ collector list, did he care ? He come from the street, so maybe its like a game for him. I've any knowledge on art management etc...sorry. everytime I bought piece, I contacted directly artist, and it was ok. His art is still his art, I mean, he is Dran, with his hand, touch and humour, I keep dreaming for a piece of that guy.
About the quality, he do how he want to do, it is still is art. So, it work or not (for you). (It's not cause you have a Hasselblad than your pics is better than my 35mm film, we don't care about quality, it works or not, thats the point. no ?)

New print from Dran , by tinypoubelle on Apr 24, 2020 16:33:43 GMT 1, The prints look great. Congratulations to those that picked one up.
It’s a great image and I would love to see the original.
There have been some fantastic, really wonderful new paintings and drawings that I have seen from Dran in the past 12-18 months. Lots of love poured into them. They have brought me some of the greatest joy of any of his works. I honestly mean joy. I’m indifferent to the majority of the world but Dran’s art moves me like no one else’s. I know many other people who feel similar.
To me, the quality of his work at the moment speaks volumes of his personal happiness. It is certainly filling me with happiness.
I’m absolutely loving his work right now.
Two big positives for me is that through Instagram we continue to be able to share in his great art and perhaps most importantly there is a way for all of his fans to contact his team and build relationships. Let people see for themselves what they think of the experience.
Either way, great print and well done to those that got one.

Did this sell out then? I know it was an edition of 30 and I also agree, it was a lovely piece!

The rat is hanging a scrap / fragment of discarded packaging from a well known French dessert “La Laitière” (the milkmaid) which uses the eponymous Vermeer painting in its branding
