12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by graffoto on Jul 2, 2009 16:21:39 GMT 1, This looks like a Bargain - 12 Original Blakes for 900 quid! ;D
inspired by the music of Beach Boy Brian Wilson...
if only i had the wall space!
(the site seems to say that this will go up in price!)
www.genesis-publications.com/lucky/index.html
 
Box set including lots of stuff but mostly:
12 ORIGINAL PRINTS CREATED BY PETER BLAKE
A series of collages produced by Sir Peter as numbered, fine art serigraphs. Screened in over
20 individual colours on to Somerset Tub-sized, 410 gsm art paper. Peter says, โThis artwork
is about Brian looking at somewhere like Venice Beach, for instance. Itโs Brianโs California,
which Iโm very happy to make visual.โ
CLOTH BOUND BOOK
Signed by both authors, Brian and Peterโs hand-numbered book speaks about the music and
inspirations of That Lucky Old Sun. โItโs a spiritual record,โ Brian writes, โitโs about trying to
make the best of your life.โ

12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by Ruggs on Jul 2, 2009 21:08:29 GMT 1, Hmmm! I quite like them. Now, if i've done my math correctly that would mean if twenty people off this forum really fancied one and were willing to put up ยฃ45 of their hard earned for a print, that would be a nice cheap Sir Peter Blake. Not bad!

12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by Rsyok on Jul 2, 2009 21:38:13 GMT 1, Some random paper info :"Somerset Tub Sized Satin
This is the same as Somerset Satin, with the addition of starch surface sizing. It is good for printmaking and printing, and gives greater ink hold out for silkscreen and offset litho prints"
Its not a set size but 'sized' as a prep coating but looks about A3.
Id be in, but its an edition of 1000 ? Dont want to be a bummer dude but its 12 prints = still only 75 squids

12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by Happy Shopper on Jul 3, 2009 12:16:06 GMT 1, Are the prints all signed? Just says hand numbered? So is the signature on them printed?
12,000 prints would be a lot of signing!!
It says that the book is signed though.

12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by graffoto on Jul 3, 2009 12:44:16 GMT 1, I think the portfolio set is signed in the book as you said by Peter and Brian. i.e i think you get one sig per set - thus the bargain price ;D
Many of Peters prints have printed signature (as well as the real one)

12 Peter Blake Screen Prints for 900 quid!, by Happy Shopper on Jul 3, 2009 13:55:17 GMT 1, FYI - I just had confirmation from the gallery that it is only the book that is signed.
Still, a nice set and I'm pretty tempted. Just slightly put off by 1000 copies!
