Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by drip on Mar 26, 2024 13:12:10 GMT 1, Well I like it. It's a classic Ruscha, and I think it's very "now". I've been told that the younger TikTok generation loves less serious, more ironic and irreverent artwork.

Strange choice and not one I would have gone for. So many to choose from it feels like a missed opportunity. Hopefully they'll do another one after this one.

Just out of interest, which would you have gone for? (Only asking because I thought that, and then couldn't really settle on one that was noticeably better - by that I mean likely to be more popular - than what they chose)

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Fuzzyduck121 on Mar 26, 2024 15:28:43 GMT 1, yeah the mattress work from TZK is mega haha
in terms of this work, SPAM on second and third look is a brilliant idea for a timed work that is ironic and iconic at the same time
Anyone who thinks they will sell less than 1000 of these has little knowledge of Ed's appeal or market
His base of collectors and those who know his work, especially in the US , would make the size of say the Condo market seem miniscule
In addition this will be printed and marketed in conjunction with an enormous LACMA / MoMa show that has and will attract a seriously large number of visitors and can be cross marketed to lots and lots of folk
Expect this to have mass appeal as its very hard for most of those who know his work to afford anything and the chance to buy a work of quality is lacking
Yes everyone wants a Hollywood or mountain or a gas station but this would potentially work very well, hopefully theres more than one print available

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by quicksnap on Mar 26, 2024 18:11:30 GMT 1, I'm very excited about this image. Having grown up in Los Angeles and going to LACMA for field trips since I was quite young, this is an iconic piece for me. So, I would be very pleased to be able to have this on my wall. I'm not saying I wouldn't be super stoked for a Norm's print, cause that would be incredible. There are several others I'd love to have as well. It's like any art, people have their reasons why they like/dislike something. But, this being part of the LACMA permanent collection for so long, makes total sense that this would be the release to benefit the museum.

Anish Kapoor, Elizabeth Peyton etc. Spoiler alert - it will be more than ยฃ1k thatโs for sure.

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by pamplemousse on Mar 26, 2024 22:11:34 GMT 1, I like it from a graphical and typography perspective. Ruscha did this in 1962 which was around the same time Warhol did his soup cans. The use of the word spam with reference to popular culture was as relevant then, as it is now... very appropriate for a timed edition.

Ed's too cool for a pencil. I bet he signs it at dawn with a lit cigar or at sunset with the charcoaled remains of a roadside armadillo.

Screw it. I'm putting it on the wall. My family will run screaming, but such is life.

Ed Ruscha - New Avant Arte print release - SPAM, by Christian Avant Arte on Mar 27, 2024 9:07:05 GMT 1, To lower all expectations this timed released will be stamped not signed like how we did it with Tom Sachs, Nina Chanel, Ayako Rokkaku and Calleja. Doing a high quality signed timed release for an affordable price with an artist who his works (especially the early 60's works) are selling for 20 million + on auctions , who is 86 and having a retrospective in the Lacma and Moma is unfortunately a bit unrealistic.
With every artist we have different ways of doing it with Condo it was more limited and expensive and with Ed Ruscha we are trying to open it up a lot more. As said buy it if you love it, but this is definitely for us something that we couldn't be more proud of it the biggest artist we have worked with and also one of the more important pieces in art history that we will edition as a fundraiser with an incredible institution. We will share more information soon!

A forum where art comes second to flipping and profit. It goes some way to explaining why they selected people on here with no real collections to speak of for the Condo editions.

It makes sense that a timed edition by a blue chip artist cannot be signed AND be affordable. Iโve not gone for any timed releases in the past but I like this one and probably will. I have quite a few limited editions by AA and I think itโs great that they mix it up and offer various formats / editions.
