He is a American Nutter

American Ron English says he bought the painting in
protest for his "good pal Banksy", and that "street art shouldn't be bought and sold

[A piece of Banksy street art painted on the side of a Poundland, North London
has sold to a USA artist for more than half a million pounds - but the buyer has vowed to whitewash it in protest.]

It will be worth an absolute fortune afterwards. That's the somewhat ridiculous part.

That blank white slab will be worth 6-figures+ arista. The fact that he's painted over it will be considered "art" in itself.

Similarly, the "half shredded" painting will be worth far more the next time it's sold than it was before it "shredded".

Bizarre nonsense, but the art world is what it is.
