Perfect Place for Banksy

Ammi 18-02-2013 06:04 PM

No Ammi
is going to be sold to a Private Collector
then it goes up in value again.


Yes he put that on Poundland who sold child labour built bunting

Ammi 18-02-2013 06:22 PM

..you don't know who will buy it Arista...hopefully it'll create interest from the museums and be displayed for everyone to enjoy...

Brother Leon 18-02-2013 06:26 PM

Banksy is amazing. Done a project on him for Art in School days. Most enjoyable thing I done that year.

Kizzy 18-02-2013 06:30 PM

Shame he didn't spray it on the building owned by the charity supporting these vulnerable children, raising awareness AND cash? Now it could be forgotten about hidden away in some vault, increasing in value for some collector.....
Come on banksy sort it out haha ( p.s if you want to be political on my house you can) ;)

..yeah, I think he's a true modern day artist Brother Leon...there is some amazing street art around but he is more of a 'prophet' with the meaning in his work...

Has anyone figured out who actually removed it though yet? Was it removed illegally by thieves? or was it removed by the owner of the building? I know Poundland said they didn't have it removed, but they also said that they don't own the building, so i'm confused.

If it was the owner of the building, then I would think that they do have the right to sell it.

As far as Banksy goes, i'm not really impressed with his art. You can see things that are just as clever on Reddit or DeviantArt every day. I like his stencils, but i don't think he has that much talent, certainly not a rare talent.

The Owner of that building
has avoided talking to the council
so Local TV news think its him.
We should find out soon

Poundland did well
as many went to see it
and would pop into that cheap store.

It appears that one had special meaning
as Poundland had sold bits made by children.

arista 22-02-2013 05:12 PM

Just on ITV1London News
(will also be on Ch5News at 6:30PM)

New :Banksy has put up a small Rat holding a board.

It is now expected to go for
half a million pounds tomorrow called "Slave Labour"
In Florida they say they got it legal
from the owner of that wall.

No
they may have tracked the Owner in London
and said he will Die.
They can not afford a fast flight to Florida.


Last minute frantic scare


Maybe the Labour Council has given his name out?
Dirty tricks

Kizzy 23-02-2013 07:54 PM

OR banksy has claimed it as his intellectual property and stopped the sale?

No
he never does that.


Anyway as he put it on a private owned building
it belongs to the owner.

Jordan. 23-02-2013 10:03 PM

I'd sell it if I could get half a million

The irony of selling a piece of anti-capitalist artwork is clearly lost on the person who took it.

It's just a never ending cycle. Awful.

arista 25-02-2013 05:15 PM

From ITV1 London News

Its in Europe
according to the Local Council Bloke
who got the info from a press man.

So it may be a Private Sale, now.

MTVN 25-02-2013 05:36 PM

Meh if it's a private building then I suppose the owner does have the right to sell it, regardless of how good an artwork it's considered to be

Yes True
unless he is getting Death Threats now?

The Labour Council Bloke is spending to long on this
if it returns he will find out
No need to go to Push TV Studios every day.
