Just bought the book still unsure on what is signed in it. My only concern is that my order confirmation came up as No 94 well if this is a limited edition of 80 looks like my order my well be getting canceled or it is not an edition of 80 as advertised.

Post-bound you can add pages to.
The bindings are literally posts, that the cover snaps onto.
Same concept as a loose-leaf binder except not circular

Would lend itself to be separate pages collated and then put together.

[rosstierney]

94 is the item number, not your order number

[rosstierney]

"All the books have the same content with all the artists contributing 4 pages which we have bound together. That said, due to the nature of the project and the hand made pages, there are variations from book to book for certain artists and a few have decided to hand embellish their pages."

Thanks just checked the receipt which would have helped.

[rosstierney]

61 pages? front & back? x 2 = 122? that would explain the confusion...

if this print was by an unkown artist would anyone like it??? thats all i am saying.

i have many faile prints and will always be a huge fan, but just dont get this one???

[otomi]

have you seen the hair coming out if the book can't wait for it

to clarify
each page is hand made
or each piece is hand made and then duplicated 80 times

Hmm. That sounds a little more promising. Perhaps I'll go back in and grab one - they are still popping up.

I've Changed my mind on this not being a good image, very different from their usual work, perhaps a better statement on stamping on culture than all the more faile like looking work at the lost in glimmering shadows show, strong message simply spoken, always goes down well with me (in the end). Coming round to this one, on the wall side of things, strange size.

Sweet just bought the faile print at 17:45 with one press of f5.....

[walters]

my first signed faile.
just feel sick that i've spent most of this months rent.

[graffalo]

I don't mind the image but it is unlikely to make it on the wall so happy to pass.

[walters]

what are paper monster like for service/delivery and all that?

i'm afraid you are in the minority on this one, llkoolj

Wow, there's a lot of negativity for this print. I personally think it's a great image and one that has 'classic' written all over it. I wish i'd seen the original I bet it has huge impact.

[bunnyboy]

Book back up now..

[graffalo]

I have fopund PM really good to deal with.

the blog makes it sound great, and if it's 4 years in the making, should be really impressive. great artists involved to.

Today we will be releasing our first limited edition hand-built book Love Sour Love. Started back in 2005 by the guys at Faile, this book has finally come to realization this past summer with a range of works being submitted over the span of those 4 years. This book is a limited edition of 80 hand-built books.
The premise of the book is simple. A handful of artists from across the globe were invited to submit four handmade pages representing their interpretation of the theme "love sour love". The only guidance provided was a strict color pallet of black, white, and any shade of green they found appropriate. The result is a book full of varied printing styles and paper textures.
Artists included in this book are as follows:
Miss Van, Futura, Bast, Judith Supine, Jeffrey Lin, Paul Insect, Alexander Strube, Blu, Alex Lukas, MOMO, Sam3, Andrew Forteath, Hugh Frost, Mike Perry, John Voight, Mike Houston, Keiichi Tanaami, Kayrock Screenprinting, WK Interact, Rotguy with Alex Lukas, Charles Wilkin, Anthony Lister, Borf, Faile and Swoon with original stories and poems by Matthew Boyle, Griffin Creech and Marcus Downe.

you cant plase every one weak i disagree, people ask them to do some thing different, they have. Its simple and clean and unlike brits americans are proud to have this flag on there walls ( and allowed to)

and as to the comment about if it was by some one else that can be put to nearly all main stream artist that you do or dont follow. Every artist makes shit look at hirst, but do people buy it because hirst did it im afraid that is how it works alot of the time.

its a possible inverstment to a artist taken on by a huge gallery and on the positive it looks nice and i will stick my neck out and say i dont think this will sell below cost any time soon on ebay.

[snausages]

I think it's a great choice for this kind of print and a very nice price really, especially for the size. It's bold, large and graphic, reminiscent of Jasper Johns, would look great on a wall I think but I don't have the space or need for it to be honest. Have too much art already.

[thecsoldier]

i agree, with the above but had to grab it. first faile ive ever been able to grab from an original source

[afroken]

I like this print a lot. Simple, iconic, with an interesting message, and cheap.

[boatboy]

Think there will be a lot of us buyers for the print, but cant see anybody from outwith the US buying it other than to sell on.

[raiden]

Ugh, I now have a book in my cart... I'm debating this one. I really wish I had more pictures of pages.

[adewilliams]

great faile release - simple is always best in the end
