Tavar Zawacki πΊπΈ Above Street Art β’ Print Release, by howies on Feb 26, 2011 5:43:35 GMT 1, I can say I am also shocked that this has sold out at 4K a pop, there must be some serious collectors getting out there now as previous group shows have no where near sold out for a lot less, I don't think his prints from the same show have sold out yet at $120
Congrats to Above, I will go and check it out.

Tavar Zawacki πΊπΈ Above Street Art β’ Print Release, by des77 on Feb 26, 2011 12:22:26 GMT 1, ABOVE'S solo show "Here today gone tomorrow" sold out in the opening night. 34 new original artworks and over 75k of sales. Not a bad start for your first solo show. 34 original works at $4k each works out at $136k. Not bad for a gallery full of cliches.
I guess the smaller works were cheaper, still shocked they sold out on night 1. Maybe they had the right guest list, but 4k can get you pieces of art by people that will in the future will be considered pioneers of the scene.

Tavar Zawacki πΊπΈ Above Street Art β’ Print Release, by fingerz on Apr 20, 2011 7:54:52 GMT 1, LIMIT PER PERSON: ONLY 1 PRINT PER PERSON. INK & PAPER: 1 COLOR BLACK βHALFTONE.β *ALL THE COLOR IN EACH PRINT WAS HAND FINISHED WITH WATERCOLOR BY ABOVE. PAPER: HAND PULLED SCREEN PRINT ON 22 IN. X 15 IN. ( 56 cm. X 38 cm. ) LENNOX-100 ARCHIVAL WHITE 250 GSM.
ABOVE PUT A GREAT AMOUNT OF TIME AND DETAIL INTO COLORING EACH PRINT. ABOVE ALSO DESIGNED AND SCREEN PRINTED EVERYTHING HIMSELF. IT DOESNβT GET MORE PERSONAL THAN THIS!
CITY SERIES INFO: Artist Above has traveled year after year following his passion making street artworks in over 60+ cities in 45+ countries around the world. After some cold beers and a lot of discussion Above mentioned that he wanted to make a βCITY SERIESβ of prints taken from photographs of pieces he had created in different cities from around the world. Above wanted to make the series very personal in ALWAYS HAND COLORING AND FINISHING EVERY PRINT! In addition Above wanted each new edition to be small ( 25 in each edition).
**( Above insisted we inform you the buyer that no 2- print are the same. Quoting Above β I like to mix and match colors to make each person buying a print get their own unique colorway. Having said that prints you see in the photos are sample colors and your print will be similar but different, if that makes sense? β)

Tavar Zawacki πΊπΈ Above Street Art β’ Print Release, by karengolden on Apr 21, 2011 16:48:03 GMT 1, Hello forum members, It's been a busy week around here with our 2nd new release in less than 1 week. Above just returned from his 3-month long "Down under" tour in Australia. While he was there he made his first ever solo show in Sydney, Australia titled "Here today gone tomorrow." His solo show sold out the opening night and the only pieces of works that were left were the hanging poster installations that were not for sale but for decoration. Above returned to the United States last week and brought with him 120 posters from his show. We are proud to introduce the "Here Today Gone Tomorrow (H.T.G.T.) Series. There are a total of 6 different celebrities in this series; Jimi Hendrix, Princess Diana, The Notorious B.I.G., Janis Joplin, Kurt Cobain, and Marilyn Monroe. There are only 20 of each celebrity in this series. Just now we uploaded a hidden newsletter link and are releasing our first celebrity Jimi Hendrix for this series. Take a look at the images and very affordable price here

It always seems to sell out without people posting positive comments publicly. Which usually means there's nothing positive to say! He must have some crazy loyal customers on the mailing list. You hardly ever see his stuff on the secondary market.
