Han Solo in Carbonite by Daniel Arsham
io9: Once a product is done, what goes into deciding its edition size and cost?
Arsham: The edition sizes for my works have traditionally been editions of 500. Although I have done some more limited versions of 99 in the past. Our demand was always higher than that, so it allowed for as many people as possible to get it, while still holding the value in the actual artwork.
Van Seen: That’s a great question! We’re always trying to find the perfect balance—working behind the scenes to determine how to make artwork accessible, affordable, and available to fans, whilst also maintaining its collectability and value. As a studio specializing in collectibles this is a responsibility that we take very seriously and care about a great deal.
