Just got this email, and I thought I'd alert people. I have a frame waiting for a landscape "Death of God" poster (I though there were 4 Death of God posters, 3 gold and 1 black). Also sorry if this is already on the forum. +1 respect for me?

"Dear All

posters we now have available. From Monday 28th January 2008, at midday British time, you will be able to order signed 'Superstition', 'Death of God' (three versions) and 'Cradle to the Grave' posters from our website www.othercriteria.com.

hahaha you beat my post

[seidbereit]

Are the Death of God ones the same as the ones which have been on the state of art site since at least last September or October, or is it a different version?

Yes and no. There were some jpg's attached to the email but some of them don't have the correct header information. From the jpegs I can view I can see the "Death of God 2", "Death of God 3" and the black poster not shown on The State of Art. BTW one of "Death of God 3" is mine so no one buy it!

Just a heads up to the Forum Members..... Other Criteria is going to be releasing some more Damien Hirst signed posters tomorrow. Here is the email I was sent.

thanks for the heads up!

[bill]

Only because i love all you guys soooo much!

[foundation]

The last line hints that they might not be the signed ones

Is anyone interested in a full set of the signed ones? all 4 and mint condition?

[spenie1975]

signed ones up now

[afroken]

talk about hyper inflation

[Deleted]

yipes...expensive. they're not editioned are they...not that it matters as it's probably the closest as I'll get to owning a hirst.

[stylus]

"From the cradle to the grave" says it's a screen print, rather than litho which is a bonus I suppose. The site isn't very intuitive... you have to click the little 'v' downarrow next to unsigned to get the signed option (in case anyone else is struggling)

[BunnyBoiler]

why so expensive??

[Gentle Mental]

i have superstition - it's shipped wonderfully flat - with nice big signature - and it's a very stunning image (for a poster, it's huge and traffic stopping).

the idea of nature vs religion vs beauty vs art vs chaos vs order and everything else is there in its full glory...

(never thought i'd say this but wish it were a giclee... but that would cost 20k up i suppose...)

[seidbereit]

10k for a print..... edition of 250?

I'd like to just say "pass" but feel more like saying something lengthy and littered with enough expletives to earn me a lifetime ban from the entire internet. GTF!

[Deleted]

I picked up from the cradle to the grave as i've always wanted a signed hirst something

[raniator]

how much were they?

[becksaboo]

£10k

[BunnyBoiler]

Posters £195 +VAT. They used to be £75 less then a year ago.

[Deleted]

£295

Last time round I picked up a set which had a fair few kinks. They replaced the lot but I just wish after all the time effort gold inks etc they would improve the quality of the stock.

[collector]

Does anyone have any pics of their Hirst prints or posters. I know a lot of people brought his litho posters but have yet to see any of them framed. I have one of the landscape butterfly prints and I'm looking for framing ideas. Many thanks.

Last Easter I got a copy of three of the four Death of God posters. I've put them in gold A1 frames, which are readily available. I've not used any mounts - they are, afterall, just posters. Sorry for the bad reflection on the first image - it was a very sunny day that day.







I also have a Superstition that is in a black 70x100cm frame.

[collector]

Many thanks for posting these pics, I think I will add a mount though as the type is so close to the edges. Any others, cheers

[Octopus UK]

A mount is going to cover some of the edge?

[headzup]

i've got all 4 of mine mounted in box frames. makes them look al ot better than the actual poster! the coverage is pretty minimal - the paper quality is pretty poor so go easy on the handling.
