Speaking to Chris at his show - he said it would be 125 prints @ ยฃ125 each - sticking to lies at 75 for ยฃ75 etc, etc...
Love the print - but ยฃ250 is a big jump from the original plan of ยฃ125!! How come the change of heart?

I thought the same on the other thread about this but as has been pointed out there the announcement was actually "no more traditional screen prints..."

Beejoir - Blurry Mary , by Heavyconsumer on Mar 20, 2008 2:44:23 GMT 1, While I don't love the image per-say, like several Beejoir pieces I do like the message. I hope they give the heads up for the release over at SOS, as I'd like to grab one of these. It ties in with my own personal attitude toward "religion" in the conventional sense. The only image of his that I've really been into, just for the image's sake was LV Child. The pricing is a little disappointing, but I think it's "worth it". People are already spending a lot more than ยฃ250 for signed pieces of his on weebay. I fear however that the flippers will be all over this like a bad rash!!!

Because that is not allowed...
As for it being offensive, may I suggest that you don't purchase then?

Beejoir - Blurry Mary , by jon0 on Mar 20, 2008 9:40:06 GMT 1, about as offensive as a narrow minded comment... --- because doing something ''derogatory about the Mulsim faith'' is of course a very christian thing to say...
read some history books and open the mind a bit-- you'll probably find religion is fair game- but then maybe not. some people are too far gone.

Religion is the biggest scam in the world, with Christianity sitting high and mighty in first place.
Letโs not forget, the pope recently updated the โold sinsโ list to be more in touch with todayโs society. The first thing added was โunnecessary wealthโ. This coming from the Vatican, the richest country in the world....please!
Religion is a scam, it will always be a scam and it will always be the number one cause of wars around the world.
In my opinion, it deserves all it gets.

if you knew anything about the muslim faith, youd know that Jesus and Mary are both Muslim prophets. so actually this could be considered anti Muslim. stop reading the daily mail

Beejoir - Blurry Mary , by manchestermike on Mar 20, 2008 11:02:31 GMT 1, It's always fun knocking Christians... they turn the other cheek and let you do it all over again ;D
I fully agree with jynormous - and Christians are up there with the worst of the lot of them for shoving their beliefs down your throat...
My god is the real god, no my god is the real god... it's like kids is a playground!
You'll never go to heaven - good neither will you, you'll die and rot like the rest of us
One great big money making exercise to benefit the few.
I may well buy this to sit next to my Toxic Mary and really piss off my Catholic visitors (hi mum ;D )

Beejoir - Blurry Mary , by woodsman on Mar 20, 2008 11:54:17 GMT 1, I don't recall Christians burning effigies in the street and killing people for allegedly mocking the Prophet Muhammad. Could it be Christians are an easier target with less likelihood of repercussions....i agree about organized religion though. Load of bollox innit. and at least its not skulls and guns

I mean, what exactly it is that people like about it?
Oh I get it, it says "clealy a virgin" but the image is blurred - oh how very droll.

Beejoir - Blurry Mary , by carlito on Mar 20, 2008 12:06:06 GMT 1, its called a wry smile....
also maybe this actually asking a question about faith rather than simply saying yeahhhh right she was a virgin...
i love how when something is fairly simple to understand (like 99.9% of all street art) we get the 'oh how intellectually superior I am for finding this so easy to understand....' well hey guys I understand it too and I like it!'....it's called a difference in taste

thats exactly it. Religion itself is a whole other kettle BUT this type of imagery / message is sooooooo A level. What next a painting of a business man on a cross or something? Right. Like that would happen!
