I like most of their stuff....as above, some of their stuff just doesn't translate to print, but looks great on walls. I probably won't buy their latest release - spending too much on art these days and don't have wall space for the 4 prints of theirs I have! Peace Girl is still my favorite little print of theirs. It's a tricky one. More and more, I'm finding that wall pieces that have a message behind them, don't really work as a print. For me, anyway. I would see this (and images like it) more useful as a cheap mass produced paste-up, so it can spread it's message or theme. Making people think about the subject matter, rather than just sitting on the wall of someone's apartment. I think if it was on my wall, its message would be wasted on me. And I don't have enough visitors coming round. I sometimes look at it as, while I might not want that particular image on my wall, I would be financially supporting an artist (or artists) whose message or politics that I agree with, enabling them to do their magic and continue to spread peace, love, harmony and rioting in equal measure. Or something like that. But then I should probably just donate money to them. Perhaps use wall-friendly images to raise funds for the more politically or socially charged street pieces? But what the flip do I know? My coffee is wearing off. |

Fully agree with above comments and frankly, I don't see it as a bad thing to say that an artist's best work is done in the street. Graphic design of a print is easier than placement/execution outdoors IMHO (side note, I can't do either!). Blu is one of my favorite street artist of all time but I only have one of his prints because the rest don't appeal to me. But his messages are so powerful that I would gladly support any street project he designed.
I won't be buying this print. But I do think I&S are enormously talented, have solid messages and no doubt will only get better.

This is my favourite image of theirs Color Rain, it was hand sprayed and dripped in an edition of 25. There is a large mural in Williamsburg, Brooklyn of this image, stunning. The print is heavy and oozing paint.  I can only agree - have been looking for a Color Rain for some time though, so far without success - if anybody should want tp part with one, please let me know ;-) |

see when I look at this it says that us ladies are still not on a level playing field ...... d'ya get me? I get that impression because the expression and stance from the girl is different to the boys. I also can't stop focussing on the way the heaviest dude is not standing on the middle spot. From a health and safety point of view, it drives my brain nuts. I like this one; once saw it hand-spayed on wood, very nice! I will go for the race ... |

It's like the Scoville scale, but for stuff that is shit. I'll show you how it works. Prince/Lemmy score zero on the scale. That's where stuff that is not only 'not shit', but can make shit stuff seem good. Like what Prince did for Sheena Easton and Lemmy did for warts. Much further along the scale is your Ed Sheerhan/Cheryl Cole, around 10,000 Shitsvilles. Pretty unpleasant but, ultimately, harmless. Yer Bonos and yer Stings come in around 100,000 Shitsvilles, mainly for the hypocrisy and the corrosive effects their whining have on the souls of people unfortunate enough to be within earshot. 1,000,000 Shitsvilles is people like Branson/Cameron. They could make a difference, a positive difference but choose not to, simply to further enrich themselves at the expense of others. The scale tops out at 10,000,000. Y'know, Trump/Bannon et al. These prints score 3,000 Shitsvilles. That means you wouldn't wipe you arse on them for fear of getting arse cancer... |
