Invader Marlboro Print, by Deleted on Apr 18, 2017 20:13:33 GMT 1, What are members thoughts on the Invader Malborough print from 2014
Think it was limited to 200 which seems high compared to his other limited prints?

Invader Marlboro Print, by surge on Apr 18, 2017 20:35:49 GMT 1, Honestly, I think it's super under rated. It's a great piece since it's an icon image, a great size and defines how Invader takes everyday items and remakes them in his style.

Plus it's related to smoking. Which is related to cancer. Which kills relatives. Bit of a downer to have on the wall.

It's a great piece since it's an icon image, a great size and defines how Invader takes everyday items and remakes them in his style. What makes you think it's underrated? This piece was universally panned on release. People tried and failed to flip this on release...just use the search function on this forum. It is an iconic image for all the wrong reasons... It's bit like hanging up an advert for Thalidomide...tasteless and crass. Invader doesn't "remake things in his own style" - he appropriated an iconic computer game designed by Tomohiro Nishikado and other 8-bit imagery which already existed. Converting an image into 8-bit is not unique to Invader. Using rubiks cubes to make art is not unique to Invader.

To your definition, Invader is a sham and didn't create anything and stole all of his ideas/style-- since he was not the first one to do something? Artists love to be criticized and shock people with their art. Whether you like it or not, Marlboro is world famous similar to Coke-a-cola. |

Invader Marlboro Print, by laguy34 on Apr 18, 2017 21:19:20 GMT 1, It's funny how everyone suddenly has a moral standard with this particular print. Banksy napalm isn't exactly a feel good image, though I'm sure very few people would have a problem hanging it on their wall. The fact is virtually all invader prints over the past 3 years have been trashed by people on this forum.

IMO, I don't believe that last statement is at all factual.

Invader Marlboro Print, by Dr Plip on Apr 18, 2017 21:34:48 GMT 1, I do recall that when the Marlboro image was released, people suggested hanging it upside down, so you could claim it was an image of Father Christmas. A "home invader", if you will.
I don't recall a time when people were suggesting that you hung any of the other Invader prints upside down to improve them.

I would have bought one if I had seen the upside down version.

Invader Marlboro Print, by Matt on Apr 18, 2017 22:05:05 GMT 1, It's funny how many people bring up the fact that cigarettes are bad for you as a comment on the print. It's f**kingstreet art, it's not all going to be lenticular rainbows or pink tags !
Banksy's "Napalm" is an incredible image, and in terms of mass killing techniques, napalm is a bit worse than cigarettes in my book
That being said...regardless of the subject being smokes, I think this print is absolutely awful
The Marlboro design does not lend itself to Invader's style. It's just red and white triangles with black writing, and once pixelated it sucks as an image
Obviously the artist thought differently...

Insert *THANK YOU* gif. How can anyone think cigarettes are too taboo of a subject matter when we are talking about street art? I don't even own an Invader piece anymore (sold them off a little while ago and never owned the marlboro print and I personally don't smoke) but now seeing some getting butt-hurt about this print in particular, Invader has accomplished what he set out to do. That being said which other Invader has had so much discussion over it? I think this print is genius and will be added to the top of my must have list-- I'll proudly hang it.
If anyone is selling the Marlboro print at a reasonable price, please pm me.

What in the world gives you the impression that invader set out to create a print that people would argue is utter shit?

Not to argue but to get a response. This is the type of dialogue that good art inspires. This print got people to stop, think and express themselves with conversations which otherwise wouldn't have happened.
