In the present financial climate is it naive or idealistic to think that galleries will fall into line?

I understand that certain artists have spent many years building their reputation and such like and in most cases do deserve to be financially rewarded for the fantastic art they produce.

I just fear that the urban art market is leaving behind the people that helped build its cult status.

So are we expecting Insect originals to be £25K or can we hope for some pieces for the little people at around £3-5K?

[alsbabar]

you can only hope

[carlito]

3-5k is f*ck loads! commonly i'd say the 'little man' has ceiling of a lot less

[dmf]

Agreed Carlito but you can't expect to get an Insect original for a fiver!

[carlito]

i was being flippant but making a point about whats deemed acceptable in this little corner we call street art....kinda sad....i will be settling for a print if they're decent

[dmf]

Any word if its just the baby print or is there another?

[jusdeep]

I would expect prices of originals to be between £15-35K, way out of most peoples league unfortunately.

This is just a guess but I'm sure there will be varying colours of the baby heads with different images in the brains (as per fly-pastes around the city). I pray there's something else on offer print-wise though as I'm not feeling this image and know for sure the originals will be well out of my price range.

It would be awesome if it was 'Liberty' or the 'The Wolf One' . This is gonna be an awesome show !!!!

[jusdeep]

Either of those two would be great, I'm not gonna hold my breath though

Hard to pitch his prices right now. I wonder if there is a bit of a waiting list that may influence the pricing.

[graeme501]

well the waiting list would have carried on from the last show since hirst got in there before everyone
