On wiki it says that "Dondi had no children but left behind hundreds of paintings and drawings, the ownership of which is still being disputed" so I guess none of that has been sold yet.
I would think that he's one of the most sought after NY writers who did canvases but I guess prices would never go Banksy high though.
o yeah, just those full cars dondi and duro were doing in 79-80 were sick. These guys had to paint in between the cars, so they most likely had to wait until the next day to see the finished product.

I still can't belive what Banksy paintings are going for, but then again I would have never thought that copy of Soultors - Stone Cold 45 was gonna sell for almost a grand the other day on ebay
anyone seen the additional footage on the Style Wars DVD that came out a few years back...with Dondi talking about letters battling each other etc... awesome shit...
I always admried his simple yet stylish works... his colours and sence of space and size and clean finish is something alot of dudes still havent mastered...
Dondi's work has been in demand among collectors since the 80's - OG sketches etc. will not sell for less than a few thousand dollars. Especially now with the 70's generation coming of age and having money to drop. sometimes prints etc will pop up for a lot less If you have to go the gallery route it will cost you. I dont think anyone that has sketches or work will be letting it go for cheap either.
I started this thread because i was looking through the hard cover book they put out off his work. There is a page that shows a metal D mounted on a canvas, they is

shit man, if i only had a couple grand sitting around doing nuthin...Dondi is the shit, its so unfortunate that he passed, but so dope that we were left with such sick shit to drool over...
i see a bunch of other writers shit for auction as well...
oh i am here alright, so this all goes down tomorrow funny thing is i was sitting at work today thinking about this auction most of the day, i convinced myself that i would offer up $3000 for one of these....got really excited about it an erythang... then i rechecked the listing and saw what they were starting at ($5,590 - $8,385)...well so much for that, i was looking forward to giving the old creditcard a run for its money...
even as bad as id love to have one of these, this money doesnt grow on trees...
