I have some good stuff to trade if anyone has an LV Child canvas.

Adam Neate Paved with gold
Nick Walker Empire state
other stuff too.

i previously had one and i'll never forgive myself for giving into the mrs and selling it.

Good luck mate, it would be almost poetic if you can get your original canvas back again

[Deleted]

thanks craig. it is unlikely i'll ever see this one again. you never know though.


anyway i also have some cash. well the credit card through paypal. so is there anyone out there who wants to help me out?.

[wizzy]

How many of these are there?.

[Deleted]

wiz, thats a question which has been asked many times. i think there are a few more than officially exist. i think 9/10 has been mentioned. but i reckon its more like 15. but i could be wrong. mine wasn't numbered.

[Ruggs]

I've always fancied this one on cardboard that Artificial Gallery sold a while ago. Good luck slammer! I hope you find one.

[Martin Whatson]

I saw a dark blue one wrapped up at Andipa when I visited the Slinkanchu exhibit earlier this summer! Looked stunning!

[wizzy]

Must be someone who has one for sale somewhere, hope you find one Slammer. what price are they?.

[Deleted]

i would like to think a deal worth £2k would be enough at present.

[randys]

Really? You think so. I'd be surprised if anyone would sell one of these for that price. Put it this way if you still had yours would you sell it for £2k?

[Deleted]

maybe, maybe not. have you got one to sell?

[Deleted]

Here is a nice one from last months SOS show


Might be a print or on card i can't tell, it said the show sold out, send Beejoir an email you never know
good luck with the hunt, it's a great image, i want one too.

[Ruggs]

Maybe if you have that type of budget in mind wouldn't it be worthwhile trying to get in touch with Chris direct and see if he would do another special one-off commission. He's a cool guy! Like the ol' saying goes 'If you don't ask, you don't get'. I still have his e-mail somewhere.

This is such a poweful image, hitting me hard in the face with the message of the rich West being so frivalous with their money they don't think twice about spending thousands of pounds on unecessary luxuries, when there are people alive at the same time on the same planet who can't even afford to survive. Very powerful.

luxuries like this canvas. LV child has become a brand, what with statues, prints and canvases(which i do find a tad testing).

Indeed. Perhaps you could look at 'LV Child' as the ultimate exploitation. Did Beejoir make it to be ironic?

[Deleted]

i don't think Beejoir would have predicted just how big the image would become. so i doubt it. i just think it has become ironic.

i originally thought it was a dig at celebrities adopting children and treating them as fashion.....

I have one but wouldn't sell.

Way out at 2k. I have a Lies and a Greed canvas, images inferior to LV and get offers of 4.5k for Lies . For a good LV canvas you will need to fork out 5.5k i think...

maybe £2k is way off. i can only go on my experience of trying to sell mine. about 14 months ago. it was up for sale at Leonard street for £5k. didn't sell. on sale here at £4k didnt sell. on sale ebay for less and didn't sell. eventually i sold it privately for £3k.
i picked up a second LV child canvas from here which was advertised on the ebay/for sale section for aprrox £1450 cash about 18 months ago and that was a guys who was asking for offers. however when it arrived it was clearly not perfect. in fact i emailed beejior at the time and asked about it and he explained it was one he was going to throw away because it was smudged and looked (imo) terrible. he almost gave it away. i asked for got my money back. I know a bloke who then got it for much less than £1k. all this is checkable with other forum members.

now £2k may not be enough. but i don't see others asking for one at the moment and we are just about still in a recession. so who knows ? .

[nacional]

Always worth a punt, just might be someone who really needs the cash....

[Simococo]

you will get one for 3.5k
thats the price the test spray sold for at Dreweatts

[Deleted]

i couldn't say for sure, but i think it was probably the test spray that i bought for £1450 on here and returned. anyone have a picture of it?.

[Deleted]

thanks. the one i was talking about was on canvas. but i do know the guy who origianlly bought that Lv on wood. nice bloke. havent seen him on here in a long while.

[randys]

I guess the price would be dependant on the colour of the canvas and the quality. I think mine is one of the best he did. But agree I wouldn't pay as much for one of those test ones or grey coloured versions.

[Martin Whatson]

Think this is my favorite!!
From the Found show if im not wrong?

[craigf]

You're correct Whatson ;D
