Do you have any prints of other artists on your wall?

[ilya1963]

Sometimes my work feels like someone elses , does that count ?

Only if you're bi-polar. No Mike, he didn't mean that. Yes he did, Michael, or are you just STOOPID?! STFU, Mike.

 

[Morry Katz]

In my house there are many b&w prints on the walls: some of mine, some of my son Stephen's, plus 3 Andre Kertesz, 5 Carol Marino,1 Arnold Newman, 1 Gary Winogrand, 1 Werner Bischoff, 1 Eugene Smith, 1 B.A. King... Obviously, wall-space is at a premium around here. If photographers don't buy the work of other photogaphers who will?

I have prints of a half dozen Walker Evans' 8x10 FSA photographs that I bought from the Library of Congress. The LC did a great job of printing, and its prices are very affordable. I've read that Evans was unhappy about his FSA work being so cheaply available, but when he signed up with the government back in the '30s he knew that would be the case. (I've also read that he shot his FSA subjects twice and kept one negative for his own files!) So-called "real" Evans prints are way out of my price range.

Only if you're bi-polar.

Yes I believe that I am , but I am not sure which one of me

No really, some works go back thirty years , they seem like someone else's. Sometimes I run across some piece at friends or family that I have not seen for a long while , I stand and stare at it until I start to feel like I am staring back at myself...weird

Back to the original question , I collect other people works , but I learn and get inspired from my last successful print more then anyone else's ...

My wife is a print artist so we have lots of her work (and her photographs) and of other print artists that she traded with. We also had a gallery/store so we have some of the artists that we used to carry. As far as photographs go we have an Ansel Adams Limited Edition which I treated myself on my visit to Yosemite, an Edward Curtis photograuvre, the very fist piece of art we bought over 3 decades ago, a local LF photographer Tom Willock, a photographer I used to work with in Grande Praire and and a pair of images from the photographer know here as Miskus. I would not want to try to name all the painters and printmakers though.

 

[Travis Nunn]

I do have a few of my own prints hanging on my walls, but I also have purchased and traded prints from many other photographers including Bill Schwab, Ike Eisenlord, Jorge Gasteazoro, Per Volquartz, Robert Teague, Richard Nelridge, Andrew Moxom and quite a few others that I rotate through regularly.

I feel very fortunate to have received some very fine prints in past APUG print exchanges. Coincidentally the sign up for the current group print exchange is underway and you can sign up here in this thread...
(there was a url link here which no longer exists)

 

[MattKing]

I have APUG print exchange photos, a couple of prints my wife and I bought, some paintings, some folk art, some reproductions (Emily Carr) and some of my own.

My wife loves antique linen, so we have some of that in frames as well.

I'm including work in free standing frames as well as work on the walls.

I have an original print by Alwyn Roy Coates, from his Voller Corsets collection.
A fantastic B&W print - "Waiting in the Woodshed".

I have prints by other photographers, and my own, hanging on our walls. I like to trade prints with friends, and I occasionally buy images.

I just counted all the stuff on my living room / dining room walls. 25 paintings and prints, 10 by me. I scour the local goodwill and other thrift stores and have found some wonderful pieces for peanuts. For example, a 24 x 30 inch wood block print, signed, numbered, and framed, for $30. I got another lovely little print free because the glass was broken. I like to have lots of work by others around to look at, especially in mediums I do not use and subjects I do not pursue. Keeps me interested.

 

[keithwms]

Do you have any prints displayed from photographers other than yourself?

Sure, quite a few. I don't have any of my own stuff hanging.

 

[eclarke]

Yes, I have a tiny collection..Evan Clarke

 

[jd callow]

Currently my walls are bare, -- just painted them. Soon I hope to have my own stuff up as well as work by Bill Schwab, G. Zuili, Lavina Hanachuic and a few others.

 

[donbga]

I have just one... a reproduction of "Winter Sunrise: Sierra Nevada...". There's a very nice label on the lower front with the initials "AA". I bought it at a garage sale many years ago.

That happens to be a lithographic print that was included with one of Adams books a good while back. I purchased the book and have the print also.

 

[David William White]

Very excited! I've got an Ilya Askinazi ( a.k.a. Ilya1963) hanging on my wall. Intriguing and stunning.

 

[Morry Katz]

Ihave prints by Andre Kertesz, Arnold Newman, Gary Winogrand, Eugene Smith, B.A. King, Carol Marino, Werner Bischof, Robert Bourdeau, Lauren van der Hiltz, Stephen Katz and me hanging in my house. It's just like a gallery.

we have a variety of images on our walls and shelves.
some are from nice people here ( revy, doughtery, leake, morange, milin )

others are from artists i knew from
the days i ran an art gallery with them ( painters / photographers ), former room mates and friends, my wife or my kids, or ... even me

 

[Dave Wooten]

David Goldfarb (albumen), Jersey Vic (lith), Les McLane (silver) Ansel Adams (silver). Also some prints I have bought from street photographers from various cities, as well as portraits from the early 1900's gleaned from antique shops-usually for a buck each.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Three photographs by Ira Meyer. One of which is of an Aurora Borealis and was on the cover of National Geographic years ago.

"Do you have any prints of other artists on your wall?"

Yes I do.

I have prints made, some framed, some in books, albums from other photographer friends of mine.

I'm always learning and what a better way than to see how others view the world.

 

[thefizz]

I have lots of my own prints hanging in my home plus others I have purchased such as 1 lith and 2 toned prints from Tim Rudman, 2 B&W from Les McLean and 1 dr5/Ilfochrome from Gavin Smith, aka coigach. They give me inspiration to keep trying to improve my photography.

 

[Thomas Bertilsson]

Yes, I do. Painters, printmakers, photographers, and sculptors pride our home; it's all fairly inexpensive art work, but a combination of what we both like and appreciate.
I'm proud to rotate photographs of friends and colleagues here on APUG as well: Ian Leake, Ike Eisenlord, Guillaume Zuili, Bill Schwab, Andrew Moxom, Travis Nunn, Katherine Whitmore, Suzanne Revy, and a few others (sorry if I can't remember your name right this second).
It's interesting and rewarding to see real prints by those that also post here. The prints are always so much better and more interesting.

No, only other photographers.
