Just out of interest where was the promotion of Al's Amy piece?

In a nice prominent position right outside her house (according to what Ive read here)

[connecta1]

...as i understood it, he left a copy of the print with a personal RIP-type message on it to AW, no?

Not sure how this qualifies as distasteful promotion...

[Warm Gun]

According to some this image was available for sale on line the day after her death, there was also a new paste up of the same image near the shrine (as well as the copy mentioned above). People have put two and two together and got the sum total of a distasteful promotion. Whether or not it was,I don't know.

[shower]

So leaving the piece outside her pad counts as promotion?! Really? And I'm pretty sure I saw those prints on the Stolenspace website in April.

I personally don't see a problem at all. He's still got my respect.

[xmyart]

Ok, the way i see it is its gone like this, Al releases print (April? ), for some reason they were no longer there the day/day before she died. Next Amy dies, Al goes and puts one up outside her house, and apparently (although not seen pics to prove it) There is ALSO a paste up. Then all; of a sudden the prints are made available again on the website.

Thats as concise/precise as i can be. If this is all correct its one fuck off cynical ca$h in, END OF.

If its true only in parts (and i accept thats possible) then yes perhaps its a tribute. Its hard to say for sure either way, but thats why its become this much of a debate.

[shower]

Each of the Amy prints are editions of 5, thats 25 prints in total. And Im pretty sure I saw a few red dots at the show, plus they were on Stolenspace's website with likely sales back in April.

Some galleries often take prints offline once they are down to the last couple available and keep them instore. So if this was the case and the gallery added them online after Amy passed away then thats not cool - remember, Al doesnt run the gallery.

But Im amazed that anyone is accusing Al of promoting his prints when there were likely to only be a handful still available. It's not as if its a large edition that didnt sell, its not as if they are all originals and hes likely to be making a fair bit of cash. Its a couple of prints that he will only receive 50% of the fee someone pays.

And regarding the promotion of his 'image' in general, its not as if hes been plastering pics of his 'stunt' all round the internet. In fact ive not seen many at all, apart from in one news article.

Il keep my money on his piece outside her pad as being a genuine tribute. You gotta remember she had a killer voice and a fair few fans!

[des77]

The email promoting these went out the same day he left the print outside the house.

[twist65]

I agree that you can't hold Al responsible for this - he did a portrait piece of her so chances are he respects her and is a fan himself, hence taking a print down with a tribute message after she passed away. Maybe the gallery put them back online as they figured there would be loads of search engine action for Amy and relisting them might bump traffic to their site, but didn't figure that it looked distasteful?

[xmyart]

Says it all des. al or the gallery or both, who cares. If thats the case its a ca$h in.

[xmyart]

Oh look, another "tribute"

Wow...really!?

100% increase in the Gary Hume paintings in the few weeks since they've sold out. That's an excellent ROI. (And there are 1,000 of them out there.)

Lots of this Forum starting to feel like an art-secured hedge fund.

Am I the only person thinking that, why a 12"x12" canvas doesn't look "square" at all in the pictures posted?

[dunkem]

Now I do not see square because it is not square ... thanks for the comment rsj,
measures corrected.

Looks like Mysterious Al has a new website - www.mysteriousal.com

Anyone know any galleries selling Mysterious Al prints? Can't seem to find much online.

[dbrizzle]

There is a gallery in the States that has a paper collage he did a while back for pretty decent price.
