Prints and Silk Screens we all Scream for ... oops.
Several people have asked me about prints....prints prints prints....alls I hear about is prints!!
Prints are great for acquiring images by your favorite artist while still being excited that you can collect more or eat something other than the ubiquitous Top Ramen for the next week.
(Now, that is assuming that people can't afford to buy art or that they have plebeian culinary palettes...and that is not true - so I don't want to lump all of you together.)
But more importantly -- the point of duplication is recognition.
Hmm, I think I just made that up....and what I am trying to say is no different than what I have been saying the last 3+ years of having the gallery:
The more art out there by a particular artist, the more he/she will get known. Prints are a way to facilitate the career of an artist and cultivate the next generation of collectors.
Always one to encourage collecting original work, but one who understands frugality, I have to support prints out of objectivity.
But don't be disappointed because your one favorite image is $235 and there are no $45 ones being made. Go on a payment plan. You will be so glad 10 years from now when you want to buy a house and need to make some cash at auction.
In fact, here are some astounding recent art sales from London.
For all others there is Gallery Revisited.
