| − | [[Category:Artists]] | + | [[Category:Artists]]Alexander Flores is a Mexican cubist scupltor. Vbz.net carried his work for several years, and successfully processed a handful of customer orders for his pieces. Lately, however, I have found it very difficult to find reliable sources for his work. |

| − | + | I have been in touch with a few individuals who have Flores pieces to sell, and I am hoping to be able to offer these for sale through vbz.net soon. | |
| − | + | ==The supplier situation== | |
| − | + | The supplier I was in touch with earlier -- "The Art of Alexander Flores" -- dropped their web site, and stopped responding to email queries. Due to my [[htwiki:phone-phobia|phone-phobia]] I was only able to make one or two attempts to contact them by phone; one of those attempts resulted in talking to someone who appeared to know only Spanish, which I don't speak. | |
In 2003 or so there was [http://www.alexanderflores.com.mx/ another web site] set up as a wholesale source for Flores's work, but it appears to be defunct as well. | In 2003 or so there was [http://www.alexanderflores.com.mx/ another web site] set up as a wholesale source for Flores's work, but it appears to be defunct as well. | ||

Flores's work seems to be gaining in popularity, as evidenced by increasing prices. Does anyone know if Flores himself is doing well as a result of this? Or is someone else making most of the profit? If he is the owner of "El Arte de Alexander Flores", then it looks good -- but confirmation would be nice to have. | Flores's work seems to be gaining in popularity, as evidenced by increasing prices.
