Default Re: Museum-grade video game art - poll

Thanks for the feedback guys! Good suggestions. Most problematic at this stage is getting the IP rights cleared from Japanese companies. The US and EUR studios are a bit more easy to work with.

One of my personal favorites is Zelfa artist Katsuya Terada. He did his first western exhibition recently here: (http://www.compoundgallery.com/Artis...=artist&cid=42) All of his black marker drawings on plain paper(!) were bought by the president of Nike. Some at US 6.000 prices. I thought that was pretty cool and bodes well for the appreciation and price development of video game artists.

Technically, because the artwork is made digitally, the prints are regarded as the originals (as they are not reproductions of a painting or other). Just like contemporary art photography they are sold in 1 small edition. You also get a guarantee from us and Maciej (signed contract) that they will NEVER be reprinted outside of this edition unless one of the original 12 prints ever gets destroyed (in a fire or something). It that case we do a free replacement for the registered owner. All works comes with a lifelong guarantee that the quality will not diminish as well.

Maciej's work is brilliant and Metropolis is a great piece indeed. For the US 1.500 you get a ready-to-hang museum-grade Giclee print mounted on Dibond with a liquid gloss or Diasec coating. I'm always pretty open about stuff, so to give you an indication; just the production costs (materials, printing) for that piece alone are +/- US 600,-

In this clip (at 30 secs.) you can see the Metropolis piece with the liquid gloss finish on Dibond: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0rJlx...6eAUAAAAAAAAAA

The site doesn't really do it justice (so I really appreciate your feedback!). Anyway, all work comes with a 30 day money back guarantee and I have never had a return .
