Indeed and the new one that looks about finished is even better. I'd love to see a print of these released by Fairey sometime soon

Fly as hell, but way too much wall space required, and way too much money.

These were on display at the Pulse Art fair in Miami last week. Impressive in person, but yeah need a lot of wall space.

And who doesn't want a great print depicting rape, murder, torture and vomiting? Perfect for the Christmas season!

Lots of respect for Cleon, but that is a wall I'd rather visit than live with.

All over the place with his pricing. But $2G, really?

For nine prints

Ok. so $222 for a 1 color screenprint that you NEED all 9 to actually have the full image.

I think my avatar would love to have this Cleon hanging in his Manhattan penthouse. Just vibe out and listen to some Huey Lewis.
