they are crackers...

[goffy]

When was the last time Faile came up with a new image on their work?

[slowmo]

January, Ganesha and the Challenger rocket were new werent they?

[saltandiron]

Challenger is old, look on page 9 of the sold out section. The blurb is

This is the classic Challenger print, one of the first Faile icons put up on the streets of NYC. Challenger is also the impetus for the Faile 1986 symbol.

Lower East side.... sorted.
2 Mins from my Local Bar

[johnas]

probably best to go there BEFORE sinking a few beers me thinks

[johnas]

the gallery space looks amazing...

[saltandiron]

Fuck me, that looks amazing!

Someone mentioned this over on the faile board but thought I'd repost it here - interview with the guys on fecalface.com,

[werew]

Laz probably sold about half of this show's pieces in the presale. Everybody on the Faile mailing list was encouraged to register with Laz for that some time ago. It is probably nonsense to call all these folks "investors".

[pezlow]

Those pictures look stunning. No doubt about it this is gonna be Faile's year.

[melttheguns]

hey do you guys know if the two prints available on POW (bunny and mermaid) are signed?
it doesnt state that they are so i'm assuming not?

anyways, just got back from the show in nyc. really nice the space is awesome. two floors (main floor and basement) the large pieces and the marble statue are in the street floor (main space) and the smaller pieces and the boxes are downstairs. i didnt even bother to ask about availability and prices. figure if theyre not already gone, theyre out of my range...

[bored with screen names]

They're not signed. If they were they'd be looooooong gone by now.

Also here pics from opening + text. They really seem to have sold all their 30,000+ canvasses! Quote:

"The international (street??) art collective known as FAILE took a page from the Banksy playbook when they unveiled their latest show, “Nothing Lasts Forever” at a private reception in NYC Wednesday nite. Forgoing the traditional gallery setup, the group rented their own grimy warehouse space on the Lower East Side and quickly sold out more than 40 artworks ranging from $25—$35,000 on up, clearing well over a million in sales before the opening red carpet was even laid."

It was ok
Nothing amazing or groundbreaking.
Awesome space though

[BK83]

I disagree -- there work is absolutely amazing and groundbreaking ... an absolute reinterpretation of the effects of epehemeral art and the degradation and reinvention of icons and there eventual effects both negative and positive on pop culture. vanit y.

Has anyone saved the BWR Box pdf by any chance?
The link is broken and did not save that one...

Many thanks.
