Adam Neate White Self Portrait, by RBK on Nov 12, 2008 4:43:12 GMT 1, That's actually a great price (especially if the frame is included)!
But I disagree with you winter - it has nothing to do with the publicity. Adam just wants to get back to his roots as he hasn't been able to leave his works on the streets for some time now.

I disagree
Adam has said he used to get home from work, and have the urge to paint and experiment, and when his flat/home was full he decided to give them away.
This image is something he hasnt touched by the looks of it, (apart from of course the original trhe print is taken from) so what can it be apart from cheap marketing? maybe a social experiment of some kind?
It will be very interesting to see how many turn up on here, and how many people will take them home, put it under the stairs when the wife says she hates it, and how many people will try to look up what it is, though how can you google Adams sig ? :-)
By the way great price for a lovely framed WSP Winter :-)

Some good discussion... Manty I would counter it's a great way for him to get back to the streets without having to slave away for weeks knocking out a thousand paintings. It brings the whole commodification of art into play and just like Warhol challenges the notion that something isn't art if it is mass-produced.
"It is about putting back in what I got out at the beginning of my career."
And if it were some marketing ploy - what exactly is being marketed? I don't know of any shows Neate has coming up, and it's not like someone finding a free picture on the street is going to just hop over to Elms and plunk down 40K on a canvas.

I don't know of any shows Neate has coming up, and it's not like someone finding a free picture on the street is going to just hop over to Elms and plunk down 40K on a canvas. I think it's Adam Neate himself that is being marketed. It's free publicity, gets his name in the papers, gets people on art forums discussing his work. In fact we are discussing it right now in a thread that isn't even about this subject, so I would say mission accomplished! I want to believe it is about the art, but the manner that we found out about it, and the fact that Adam is basically just organizing this event makes it seem far from art and something else entirely, no?
