Work Summary & Collector Notes

The New York Invasion Black Light Print is a 2015 open-edition offset print at 24 x 36 inches, carrying a special NY Invasion studio stamp. Designed to respond under black light, it is an unsigned, accessibly produced piece tied to FAILE's New York Invasion project.

Collector notes: Legacy catalog label: Signed; total quantity was not documented in the saved record. Edition-specific signature, numbering, and stamp details were not stated in the saved release record. Verify signing and numbering against a documented example of this edition.

Why It Matters

The black-light responsiveness makes this an unusual novelty within FAILE's catalog, distinct from the studio's standard flat prints. As an open edition with a project-specific stamp, it functions as an affordable memento of the New York Invasion body of work rather than a limited collectible.

Collector Perspective

This is an entry-level, open-edition offset piece — unsigned and stamped rather than numbered. Its value lies in the black-light gimmick and its association with the NY Invasion project. Collectors should treat it as a fun, accessible acquisition rather than a scarcity play.

Historical Context

FAILE's New York Invasion project extended the duo's imagery across a themed body of work. Producing an open-edition black-light print made that project accessible to a broad audience, echoing the wide-distribution ethos of the duo's street-poster origins.
