Banksy prices were in some cases pretty good for the buyer (Stop & Search, Rude Copper) others went pretty high such as the Gangsta Rat
Lot 36 Josรฉ Parlรก (b. 1973) Untitled ยฃ5250 Damn that is cheap and someone got a bargain!!! That was almost me, but was under bidder. It was a really lovely example, but timing of the auction was poor for me and although tempted to move my bid up I was conscious I am looking for a stand out piece (which maybe in many ways this is) and that it would have meant I had less money to spend on it. Banksy prices were in some cases pretty good for the buyer (Stop & Search, Rude Copper) others went pretty high such as the Gangsta Rat |

What do you want to know about the LN? It was signed with COA, bought or gifted from Banksy a while back. I really liked the inscription, one of my favourite classic Banksy's

He turned up after the Chaplin went, but saw his larger piece sell. Had a good chat with him, had my photo taken with him and he signed my catalogue :-)

I think he needed to be taken to one side and be reminded of his job. |

Apologies, really don't "hate" MBW, or any other artist for that matter. I think he's quite funny, I think his work is funny in a lol way too, I think an auctioneer laughing before auctioning it is also funny. Didn't mean to offend. peace |

And anyway, since when making it to an auction house is a testimony of quality (of artworks) or not

His turquoise paintings consistently fail to sell at auction though.

Wow really. What was the original price (ballpark)?
I don't think any really strong paintings have ever come up for sale, the classic red portraits for example so it's hard to judge.
