Chuffed as Fxxk to pick up a Hume print! ;D

[brainthedog]

not to be ignorant, but who is gary hume? I checked out the site and abstract art really isn't for me. maybe because i'm such a simpleton.

[slowmo]

GAry Hume was one of the young british artists, love his stuff.

[pezlow]

Slowmo that is stunning. Big fan of Gary Hume's work. I can't afford it at the moment but will buy if still available in a month or two's time. Thanks for the heads up.

[andrewd]

Hi Pezlow, met you briefly at the Dragon Bar on the way to the Eine show a couple of weeks ago. Give me a day or two and I'll PM you pics of an original Gary Hume that I own.

[chrisps303]

I've read something today in the independent about him , i think they have 20 copies of one of his prints that they are selling.
I've just grabbed the magazine and had another look, its a print called American Tan XXVI if anybody is interested.


EDIT. Just followed your link and its the same print, should have looked before i posted.

I hoped White Cube would release something to coincide with the Hume show, but as with Tracey Emin's teapot, it's a new release via Countereditions.
Brilliant!!! & thanks for the heads up. +1.

[slowmo]

Don't PM the Hume, post it on the get your banksy's out! I would have a Hume original as my number 1 want in art, love his work

[pezlow]

Yep would love to see the hume original

[Pattycakes]

I went to the opening of his new show at White cube the other night, some very good paintings there, and some sculptures, which I am not so sure about. White Cube do have an edition available also but it's not on the website for some reason. If you give them a call they'll have the details.

I've put it on Get Your Banksys out, it's a painting for a charity coffee mug design, alas not a huge gallery piece!!

printguru / all,

The White Cube Hume print 'American Tan XXIV' is now available on their website - details as follows:

Edition of 150
Screenprint from 7 screens and 3 varnishes, hand embossed areas, printed on 410gsm Somerset Tub Sized paper
Paper size 122 x 100 cm
Image size 99 x 78 cm
Signed and numbered
Sold unframed

£2,000.00 + VAT (delivery available from 1 October)

There is a very stark contrast in price between the White Cube print and Counter Editions prints (the White Cube print coming in around 5x the price of the Counter Editions print!) - the Counter Editions print is a better image IMO at a fraction of the price (albeit a slightly larger edition size 250 vs. 150) - I'd be very surprised if White Cube shift them at £2,000 a pop in a hurry!

[slowmo]

Crickey! Looks like the Independent done me a favour then! ;D Although I would like that Gary Hume on White Cube as well.

Firstly apologies for the quality of the shots and my lovely reflection but the bleeding sun was shining and I could not get any other ones....

This collection of Hume's lines the corridor in our office in Armonk (US)......I first saw them a couple of years ago and it was only through the forum that I established who they were by so I thought I would grab some pictures when I was last over there.

Its a bit frustrating as people just wander past with no idea of what it is they are walking past..... Even if I do not have to go this floor on my trips I ALWAYS go and have a look.....

[slowmo]

very nice, must be good offices

[marshman]

Actually the building is pretty cool (its completely clad in copper and has gone green as copper does) but the insides are a bit dated and it is only things like this and the Sol LeWitt I posted a bit earlier.

Its nice working for a huge firm that invests time and effort into the arts, commissioning various pieces, installations all sorts of interesting things.

Pretty cool working environment. Hume and LeWitt - two of my favourite artists

[marshman]

Yeh when I work in our London office one of the floors is littered with Hirst's spirograph drawings from circa 82! One "disappeared" a while back so when I called the art department to let them know they laughed and told me that Hirst had borrowed it for his retrospective exhibition.

[funster]

I don't think I'd get much work done in such an environment!

Fuzzy Snowman (Limited Xmas Edition - Signed by Gary Hume) in Mint Condition.

Height: 27.5 cm, Width: 19 cm

Every year the fine art handling company Momart commissions a British artist to design their corporate Christmas greeting which they sends to customers and contacts in the art world. In this multiple, issued as their Christmas greeting in 2000, Gary Hume uses the snowman, a form that can be articulated simply as two circles. Hume is best known for his glossy paintings, generally based on easily identifiable objects such as doors, flowers or the faces of celebrities, forms which he often represents in simple silhouettes.

I am selling this for £375 or nearest offer, serious buyers only please. PM me with your offers and I am selling this in person for cash, in London.

Actually I do.  Grabbed 2 of them myself.

I like the concept of making original art, created by well established artists, available for small purses ....
The quality of the artwork is a matter of taste ..

Is it wise as an investment ? .... time will tell.
The large edition size will certainly scare off some flippers.

[Dr Plip]

Ha! Some keen entrepreneur put one on eBay an hour ago. Buy it now for £750.

The listing has been ended though.

To be fair, their listing has better pictures of it than the Tate website does.

i like it too
