Also managed to get my hands on one, and I’m extremely dull.

The same colourway?

Maybe they spoke to friends and family of applicants because I got one and jeez, good luck staying awake when I've got something to say 🥱

I did. No idea how, but sent an email, and got a reply about this one (no mention of the other 2 though, even when I asked again)

What e-mail address are you sending it to?  Or what web site should I be keeping an eye on?  

Thanks.  

I just used the email address on her website after hearing there was a new release on this thread.
But I'm fairly sure these are all sold out now.

[Fuzzyduck121]

I think it’s just a case of sometimes they reply and sometimes they don’t as with a lot of galleries and artists

Feel fortunate to have the full set secured as they will look great on the wall

I believe only a handful of sets have been sold so it’s nice to have them all together with matching numbers etc as that calms my art OCD slightly

[John The Badgers]

Great news for everyone who has secured one of these.

May be wrong here, usually am, but I went to the David Zwirner exhibition last year, just looking through the pictures, and I believe the originals on display? -

Bridget Riley large fragment or large fragment 2.

Wishing Bridget Riley a very happy birthday today! 🎂🍸

[Marty 80]

Happy birthday to her.

Has anybody heard any more news on her latest interval print?

[u%hdjfka c]

I don't think she's on the forum

[orchid]

Anyone got a pic of theirs?

Pretty sure these haven’t gone out yet. I was lucky enough to get one a few weeks back (have purchased directly from BRS in the past so have a contact) - although I’ve paid, shipping etc is yet to be sorted. Have one of the previously released Intervals, so think these will look pretty good together….

What’s been available directing through BRS previously? Most appear to be published by established galleries.

Thanks

BRS tends to sell the prints that our being sold in aid of support for charitable run galleries, I believe these prints are for the National Galleries of Scotland. The general releases still tend to go through commerical galleries.

That’s interesting. Measure to Measure was a general release and Intervals re aid of support. I wonder if they differ from the aspect of desirability and/process Bridget puts into them

I'm not sure they differ from Intervals 2019 to be fair. Smaller edition and I believe there were 2 variants in 2019 and 3 this time. 

Measure to Measure was a commercial release no?

Sorry. Wasn’t being clear. I know the intervals are broadly similar, but in terms of print itself between a general release and one for charity, I wonder if one is more desirable or if thought process of the print itself differs

... measure to measure was a seminal piece and the use of dots as a way of illustrative perception of old masters was discussed by BR in the BBC bio-documentary ... the design was also used in one the entrances/stair areas of the National Gallery ...

Think you are right. I previously picked up a couple of Riley’s from BRS when her major retrospective was on in Edinburgh (before it ended up in London) - they were from a selection of previously released prints directly from BRs archive; the monies from these I believe went to the National Gallery of Scotland to help fund the show. Intervals 1&2 followed - I think they were released on the preview night of the London version of the show - which (despite having an invite😳) I didn’t attend because I’d just been to Edinburgh - stupid mistake as I missed out!

These recent smaller edition 2022 Intervals once again provide proceeds to the National Gallery of Scotland. Very generous gesture on BRs part, but I read recently her first solo show in London (1971, also the Hayward) sold her editions of  ‘Elongated Triangles’ from the cloakroom(!) to offset costs for the gallery, so it’s a model she has returned to over 50 years….

Very good value ….

[concrete jungle]

Absolutely! I was watching a One Small Step print in an Irish auction house earlier this week. Started at a very reasonable €1800 which caught my eye, but hammered at nearly €6000! With fees and the exchange rate think that comes in at well over £6k! These used to be a pick up closer to 3.5k/4k not so long ago. BR prices still on the rise…..

Indeed, that was one of the cheapest Riley's available for a long time. It would seem that her print values are certainly rising.

Wow.  That's a real bargain, especially with framing as well.  

I know they're sold out now but how did people get these?  Is there a mailing list to subscribe to for future? 

Honestly, I don't know. Think I've enquired over the last few years through her website and maybe on some kind of list behind the scenes.

Was there any discount on these?  Any in the flesh yet?

[Fuzzyduck121]

These haven’t shipped yet

All sold framed and they are still at the studio awaiting final framing elements and then shipping

When you consider her profile within the contemporary art world, I still think that there’s some way to go in terms of value. Appreciate her work is not everybody’s cup of tea, but if you begin to read (and there is plenty of literature available) about her methods and processes, particularly on the psychology of colour and how different forms interact with each other, it’s clear she is nothing less than a genius……I’ve mentioned it before but if you get a chance to see the recent BBC programme on her work it’s an informative and eye opening watch.

Discount 😂 they are a charity release by Bridget Riley for £1500 (framed) and you think there would be a discount 🤦‍♂️
