sanukjim Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Alai wah? When I saw the headlines I thought of one of the elite in Bangkok having his classic painting from the 16th or 17th century authenticated by the great and knowledgable Thai Art Professor and his assistance s while the rest of the art world said it was a fake and not a very good one at that..He still claims that it is worth $40,000,000 . That is dollars not baht. 55555 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piersbeckett Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 At least they have colour I think those images are symmetrical and The Eye of Legend more geometrical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piersbeckett Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 (edited) Typically, hand-drawn geometric drawings take a long time to produce depending of course on the size of the canvas, but six years! I suspect what contributes to the value of a drawing or painting is whether or not the artist is well known or 'recognised' by art critics or people who are known and respected for evaluating such works of art. Positive endorsement of this kind would consist of the critic or expert seeing in the work the ability of it to make a powerful impact on the viewer, to arouse or engender an emotional response which may be resultant from the artist's ability in the use of colour, perspective, symbolism, capturing the essence of something as in Impressionism, the depiction of light as with Turner or some other appeal. For me this drawing is an unsuccessful attempt at combining styles such as Cubism and Naive and forms only an uncohesive mish-mash of geometric patterns which would warrant a title such as 'The Eye of Geometrical collage' or 'A discordant study of geometric patterns with eye'. Regarding value; I'd put it at about Baht 30,000. and I also think that the whole concept would have been better expressed as an instillation.

Mook23 Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 This is not the first time Pinid has tried to sell the painting. In 1996, he sat on the street near Silpakorn University in Bangkok and tried to sell the drawing for THB19 million, according to NNT. Panid said a foreign couple stopped their car to check out the artwork. They offered THB10 million, but he refused I used to do stuff like that in my teens. Why do people have to be so greedy? Best way to get some real money for artwork is to die, though with a name like Pinid Kaewklaeye it's not gonna be easy. You should've taken the 10, you nitwit! That foreign couple was me and mam'. And we offered him 10mil Lao Kip!! Not thb... We just came back from Laos and didn't know what to with the money we had left....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That in itself is as amazing as the price he's asking. nothing to see here He made it a bizzare story by asking a ridiculous price. Actually pretty smart when you think about it. It now has exposure and people commenting and thats what he set out to do. I guess if it gets enough publicity, some dough-head will pay something for it. better than gathering dust in the garage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slapout Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I have found many people have a very over estimated value of items they have control over /own. The norm seems to be land, house, vehicle, especially motorcycle, their body, their time, knowledge (what little they have), etc. The abundance and the need of middlemen seems to bring things back into prespective quite quickly. Most of these people do not know where to go to unload their junk, so they wait on a middleman to relieve them of their goodies and take what is offered.

Jonmarleesco Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 '... I found a quote that said ‘it is not important what I took with me from this world but rather what I left for it," the artist wrote on Facebook.' Is he referring to his drawing, I wonder ... or the B88m he's hoping for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howitzer Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 So a bunch of pen colored squares and circles and shapes that he started doodling with as a little kid is now considered valuable art work. Or is he asking money because he actually opened a book and found a quote that led him to ask people what it meant? I realize I am being critical but jeez! so he's actually following in the footsteps of the enlightened and culturally superior west whereby abstract art is worth millions even more than his painting. Would you say the same thing about picasso's works even though they look physically the same as his drawings or are as abstract as his work.

If it was doodled as a pre-teen like this one was I would say exactly the same... this is not art.. it is a bored kid coloring shapes instead of doing his school work.
