You mean $1,315.82 with the current exchange rate. :)

If anything, street art is the MOST LITERAL FORM OF ART! if street art has made any negative impression on society today, its that it has made every 13 yr old with $100 and an eBay account into an art know-it-all.

If anyone is looking for a "stairs" print, I would trade mine straight up for one of the new "Favela at night" prints...
Stairs is sold out, so it might be a good trade for someone ISO, and I dont have the cash right now to buy a favela

He's like a mini Christo selling prints to pay for projects. I'd buy one if I had endless loot.....

I have always loved JR's work, especially his prints but at 1-2K for a print is just out of the price range of a lot of people out there... can get a nice OG for that price.

Love JR's work too & himself + the whole family!
1,5 K for a print edition of 180 is not cheap, but its important to know that almost every cent of the earnings from these print sales go towards the foundation that is financing JRs projects.
i have every print JR ever published & will keep on supporting him forever!
btw: the kibera train passage is a really nice print & "only" 0,5 K.
