Has anyone seen this auction for the green pop tart - d*face prints look like they are about to get a hell of a lot more expensive

That is a high price for a D* print
It is an edition of 35 though so limited supply and iconic image... - But when you consider a D* canvas listed at the moment for £1500 - looks a bargain..

[njr911]

And I dropped one of those from my basket as it was too expensive! DOH !

I don't think it's one of his stronger images either (I'd say DSTQ but I'm biased)

[ohmygosh]

Its a cracking print in the flesh and well worth the money in my opinion.

I missed out on a yellow which i still hope to get so i can have both up together.

[jam]

I agree! I was fortunate enough to get them both, and I think they are stunners in person. I like the image myself, and the BRP quality is what really makes this one stand out!

[cashman]

I got an A/P of that print

[Harveyn]

I have the Cli-Che and the Yellow Pop Tart. I am waiting for the Silver Sid to arrive from POW and then all three are off to the framers to be framed in the same style so they can be hung alongside each other.

[biggayal]

Nice one Harveyn - I'm hoping to get both my PopTarts framed in the next month or so (as long as no more expensive purchases occur!)- so if you can show us the pictures when they're done, it would be great to see

[manchestermike]

Think I'm going to have to sell mine

[biggayal]

Thats a shame Mike - but when needs must......

[Daniel Silk]

I missed out on both of those prints

I think ive been backing you up everytime you have said this silk and ill say it again - i agree!

People on this board especially are underestimating mr d and although artists like mantis etc are amazing - i think they would be fools to overlook d*face.

Got a yellow pop tart waiting to go into the frame - lovely!

Spot on!

I think another thing to think about when looking at artists and asking how successful they are, is the number of prints and canvases that are floating about and how that may effect prices D*Face has produced a pretty large amount of prints over the last few years compared to most, and they still hold and increase in value. So its tricky to compare him to other artists that may have only made a couple of prints and of run less than 50

[dotdot]

For all the good press (O contemp) and bad press (stolenspace) which has been bestowed on shows etc by Mr D this year the
ideas continue for flow which can't be bad thing.

Cli-Che for one is one of the finest prints to have been produced
this year so far.

Some may disagree some may agree ... what's new people

Looks like bidding has ended for this item....I wonder why
And the reserve was not met at £800+.....
Agreed with what has been said on this post about Mr D - he has been around the street art scene for a long time now and his work is getting harder & harder to get hold of at source. Some of his pieces are better than others as with all artists - but the overall quality of his work is really good. Working with BRP & Stolenspace must have helped as well as the prints that I have got from the BRP runs have been the best quality prints that I own.
It looks like he may have more of an influence across the pond over the next few years as well with a show in New York in December with the like of Blek & he's doing a solo show in Dec'08. Hope he keeps up the good work ;D

Blimey the reserve was not matched. The next person to put one on at £800 BIN will be laughing all the way to the next banksy!

J Nice one Mr D!

Its even more amazing in real life. the yellow is stunning

[Imoy-San]

I have been pondering whether to get one of these to go alongside my other Marilyn pieces.

This is probably going to be one of those "I should have bought one while they were affordable" situations...

Doh!

[Photoxtc]

the Yellow Pop Tart is one of my Favorite prints... so amazing in the flesh!!!! I say buy one now Yomster

[Gentle Mental]

Just had a good look at "what wars..."... it's huge and beautifully detailed, very different, very stunning. D is certainly evolving.

Yeah, I'd wash them before you take it out the tube if I were you.

[A.R.T.]

I'm glad i picked up this piece the other day. It is very unique, and from his earlier days. ;D

I'm not getting this??? Don't get me wrong, I'm a huge D* fan and have some extraordinary pieces by him but I saw this for sale on ebay and thought it just looks like a sticker stuck on cardboard... am I missing something???

It basically is.... It measures roughly 10x12... This is straight up a piece that DFace drew and signed onto a huge sticker and placed it somewhere on the streets of New York.... You can even see the marker strokes. The original owner saw the sticker, knew who DFace was, and carefully removed the sticker and mounted it on cardboard. Its almost like if a Banksy fan could take home the wall where he just stenciled. That is why I like it... Its the ultimate street art in my book... better that a screen print IMO........

[Photoxtc]

Okay, that makes sense.... I was seriously trying to figure this one out when it showed up on ebay.... and all that really matters is that you like it and you're happy with it...

[hester]

nice find
