looking for a DRAN original on paper or preferbly canvas.

missed out on one a few weeks ago from a forum member so now looking again. Remmeber seeing the great 3D one someone posted on here a month or so ago. It was great.

So, if you have an Original on paper or canvas for sale or trade, please let me know.

You have a good evening now.

[Zippy]

nah, there originals all sold and they have a buyers list for any new decent OG's they get in.

Who on here had that lovely one on paper a month ago? 3d looking piece?

[barsukauk]

Check with www.newartonline.co.uk they had one for sale, I did ask for the price but I can fine the mail regarding it.

if not Emilio from the gallery in BARCELONA,

[stopki]

What gallery in Barcelona as I'm there soon

Would love to know some good places to visit in Barcelona

[des77]

Pretty sure the Barcelona ones sold out just before the POW show. Its mainly that show which are currently being sold on ebay

[supercockle]

Good luck Zippy. I have a 3d one, though on canvas so not sure that's the one you're speaking off. It's on the Dran page on here, kindly posted by Prescription Art under the framed Dran thread.

It was ambrosiabaptism who had a stunning Dran piece on paper up for sale or rather trade for a CYW.

Hmmm, a signed Banksy print v a Dran original. I hadn't realised how much the recent hype had driven Dran's prices up. Give me the CYW anyday

Everyone was your opinion there, at least everyone with a CYW. ;D

True true ... and those with a Dran will argue otherwise! I'm just conscious about how hype affects artists prices (cue an argument, or preferably a discussion )

[stopki]

Dran is no hype.

He's one talented and very generous
Artist

[MGK1]

does anyone have an email address for dran? i had a question for him a while ago but could'nt find it

Not sure you're right there ... if I would ask now £2K or a swap for a Trolleys for the Roa drawing I consider letting go it would have nothing to do with hype affecting artist prices.

Dran works selling at £2000, were just £500 at xmas and before the POW show. You cant say the same has happened to ROA in status or price increase

Well, I was just trying to suggest that ambrosiabaptism was far off with the valuation of his drawing, even though it is a stunner, but if anyone wants to swap a Banksy for my Roa drawing please get in touch! ;D

[stopki]

Well personally I have originals from dran
An I would never swap for a banksy print

I've had a few banksy prints and apart from one
There all very average.

[hlarmy]

One is at the front of the urban art movement, the other has had a strong six months and with it prices have gone from 500gbp to 4k apparently (this is from a value perspective rather than aesthetics and personal opinion so I'm not arguing against your point Stopki ).

Don't get me wrong I do like Dran's work but I would personally wait until his prices fall back once the hype dies down a bit before buying... just my twopence

[stopki]

You are right hlarmy on ya first paragraph

But aesthetically speaking dran wins
Financially obviously banksy

But seek out a goOd Dran original and u won't be
Dissapointed

[Shoot Again]

I'm going to his show in Toulouse (South West of France) this friday so will have a better idea of what's his current value OUTSIDE the (crazy) London (POW) hipe ;-)

[hlarmy]

I do have a confession Stopki - I've never seen a Dran original in person but let's be fair, it's no Rothko so I doubt it'll change my opinion

Still, I'd love to see one in person to see whether it surprises me and until that point I should probably bow out in case I upset his collectors . If however I can just expess my personal opinion, I think it's tacky art (for want of a better word!) with a message that wears off after the initial 'ha'

EDIT: shootagain, please take lots of photos and post them on here so I can retract the above statement if I see fit

"Twopence"? shouldnt that be at least a couple of pounds while we are hyping things up?.

[ambrosiabaptism]

Thank you for your PM Zippy.

Aren't we forgetting that some people bought a CYW for £500 ?

[stopki]

Hlarmy

I think it depends on the subject matter
And style he paints in

There are a number of threads about Dran, under European Artists, Dran, on the homepage

[Zippy]

Thank you all for the links and PM's.
Personally, I really like his work and keen to add a piece to my collection.

[Shoot Again]

Don't think people in Toulouse can afford paying the POW prices ! I might be wrong though, that's why I'm going there to check myself ;-)

People don't understand art in Toulouse as well so you may be in luck

Remember those photos

[pidge]

Hi, this is my first post after becoming a member only recently, so hope i'm getting this right :) I have a number of original Drans that I would consider selling or swapping, including some early works from his Barcelona show, two in particular........pen on paper in colour and signed and both come with COA, they are both 1/1 really nice early pieces done before POW. They are only small but totally capture Drans humour and skill with only a pen! Only a few have ever come available on ebay out of about only 15 that were at the show!

Reluctantly wanting to part with them but need to frame some other pieces I have so am considering it, or the right swap could be an option, never been placed on ebay so thought I would try here first

Can send photos if of interest?
