Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by otomi on Oct 6, 2010 21:51:32 GMT 1, Compared to stencils and stickers this is quite original. The situations, settings and titles of the pieces are clever. The end product is visually pleasing even if you don't know anything about it or Slinkachu. He creates an installation and take photographs of it so you could say it is a double whammy. Also he is consistently doing a good job for many years now. I'm glad he can make a living with his art and that requires to charge more than 50 bucks for a low edition pieces but he also offers often much cheaper editions like this book. I'm sure you're not the only one who is not getting it but it looks like more people are getting it than not.

Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by jellya on Oct 6, 2010 21:56:14 GMT 1, Yeah it's just you sug
Would agree not all the images are the same in terms of appeal, and no artist hits it home each time, but you've got to see some of the Andipa ones and the sheer size of some of them. Then, for me, it's all about the play on scale and you've got that whole small thing, massive picture contradiction that's really impressive. And on super quality photo stock.
All in all, with the right image, I think you can get something pretty damn impressive hanging in your house.

Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by jackstranger on Oct 6, 2010 22:03:39 GMT 1, One of the things I enjoy is the great humor of Slinkachu, apart from amazing imagination and good quality photos.
(one I did not fancy was Death and Taxes, probably because I hate cigarettes)

Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by sug on Oct 6, 2010 22:10:46 GMT 1, I appreciate what you are saying. But there were some on sale at BRP for ages before Andipa came into the picture with Slink barely getting a mention. Then all of a sudden people are hoovering his work up raving about every piece. Most of which ain't that great.

Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by jusdeep on Oct 6, 2010 23:30:01 GMT 1, I wouldn't say people are hoovering his work up at all or raving about every piece. There is still plenty of pieces available at many of the galleries that represent him. As you said, a lot of it isn't that great though. Some are more intelligent, funny, thought provoking and clever than others, but with prices at a premium for small editions the release of a book such as this offers fans a chance to get hold of his work at a low cost. Unfortunately an edition of 50 sell out like hotcakes and with possibly ten or less held back for his website shop release I wasn't holding out much hope. I'm not a big fan of the latest Andipa release (although it is better than most) or the Fame Festival photos (I found the humour somewhat lacking in both context and choice of name), but the book print is one of the better ones imo

Slinkachu "Big Bad City" Book Launch - 1st Oct, by Ruggs on Oct 7, 2010 0:46:55 GMT 1, I love Slinkachu's work. Never thought i'd be into any kind of photographic art really, but his work has hit a cord with me somehow. Can't exactly put my finger on it really. It's visually pleasing on the eye, simplistic, colourful and has a mad mixture of humour and melancholy. Really looking forward to getting the special edition book and print and the FAME print to add to my collection. Anyone in any doubt regarding his talents should at least roll up to his next solo show at Andipa next March. His installations and prints are simply amazing.
