I'm assuming they have put out other style work to this that is half decent? It's once you get popular you can then sell any old shite.

Forgetting the print for a minute. The originals are done with spray paint. Having used spray paint, I can say that it would be extremely difficult to do these works

For me their show at Laz was one of the highlights of 2015 so far but I'm really not feeling this. I can't help but suspect that this massive print will feel a little flat and disappointing having seen the wonderful originals. I'd have preferred something smaller and more concentrated for the print.

I didn't realise they were spray painted. That is impressive, but at the end of the day the end effect it the same.

The Miaz Brothers present a radical new take on portraiture. The Italian duo, who are indeed siblings, create large-format canvases using spray paint as it never has been before. The Antimatter Series, as their body of work is known, incorporates a diverse and refreshing range of subjects. It includes portraits of their friends, their dear departed (Ghosts), philosophers, fashionable female Japanese adolescents, and figures from the era of the English Restoration (Masters). While they employ aerosol paints, the Miaz Brothers have never been street artists nor are they ever likely to start. "We use it to represent the fact that we are composed of infinite particles in continuous evolution", they say, "which change in tandem with the complex reality that surrounds us." The spray paint produces the blurred effect that defines the duo's work: "dematerialising the lines, we gain a substantial indetermination of the picture. This skips any immediate reaction and provokes the viewer to use mnemonic associations instead for their own personal visual information encoding." While possessing multi-disciplinary skills, the brothers are inclined towards portrait painting as it in itself "prompts questions about the transitory nature of existence". Ultimately though, the Antimatter Series is a stunning selection of artworks. "We look to provide a visual experience that activates our awareness, that compels the viewer to recognise and re-establish the limits of his or her own perception, to regain control of the real. The paintings invite us to always be able to take a considerable distance, to see the whole picture." www.lazinc.com/artist/miaz-brothersI like their work but fear this print is going to cost a king's ransom. As EKAP said, a smaller piece would have struck me as being a superior one. And, to echo earlier comments, a 'full bleed' would also have been more to my liking.

From what I've been told the Miaz Brothers works are airbrushed I suppose that is a kind of spray painting but not as we think of it.

Mr Laz is on here maybe he can explain the huge border? Perhaps he owns half of the mr frame mans business The border doesn't put me off the price probably will though

I always think the border makes it so much more obvious to be a print.
Same with this Borf, I would have preferred it to have the image all the way to the edge of the frame.

It does make you wonder what is causing the delays. I am starting to worry that the print is not that good

No idea I'm afraid FAKE -I didn't see a price list - I'm sure someone on here must know though The small ones (79 x 64cm) were £6,000 (inc VAT). Larger (160 x 128cm) were £12,000 (inc VAT). Got the pdf, pm me if you'd like me to email it.
