Just shows you you're never too old.

Santas Ghetto = Bethlehem, by carl on Dec 3, 2007 14:44:13 GMT 1, Noone knows anything for sure. But I suspect there will be prints for sale out there. indeed. and before i rushed over to book a flight there (which i am not) i'd really want to ask what I'm going for. Hell of a life experience that's for sure. But if you're just going to go place some bids on some auction pieces, I wouldnt be too hasty. So, make sure if you are going b/c of SG you can actually buy stuff there Also, as pez and other have stressed, do your research, dont book blindly and be both sensible and vigilant in any travels.
Totally Mcnuts. People should go for the experience (and it will be a hell of an experience!). I get the feeling that people might wing it and hope to get a Banksy out there. but dont count on it.

Totally agree
Before anyone rushes read all the details...
It appears that it will only be originals in the ghetto if The Times got it right this morning

Santas Ghetto = Bethlehem, by daz205 on Dec 3, 2007 14:56:19 GMT 1, so if you travel out you can place a bid on an original and hope to win it, how much would it take to secure an original then do you think with the proceeds going to charity i can see a few galleries going out and securing the lot, or has laz already bought them all as normal?

Santas Ghetto = Bethlehem, by fecam on Dec 3, 2007 14:58:31 GMT 1, Does anyone know for sure? It seems that a lot of people 'think' that they know and are passing off info as if it is fact... Common sense... they're not going to take 1000s of prints out there They'll sell them online
Yeah - it may be common sense, but people were saying that about the location (and how it would be London). Agree - The logistics of selling prints overseas may be tricky, but it would be pretty easy to pay for & reserve prints, particuarly as I would imagine that they won't be swamped...
My point was that many people on this forum 'claim' to know a lot, but are just guessing adn pass this off as fact..

Santas Ghetto = Bethlehem, by Curley on Dec 3, 2007 14:58:58 GMT 1, same as... i only hope that what you are going for (Banksy) is actually on sale. In the past the releases were staggered through out the month. Maybe with people travelling so far they will be selling everything through out the month but .... that may not be the case and people could be disappointed. I hope not as its a lot of money to spend just getting there. Curley, If i went there it would not be for getting a Banksy, that's said with my hand on my heart...I think it's now clear that it's about the bigger picture. If that was my only motivation I would have to be pretty dam shallow!
my comment was not aimed at you Valeha, it was a generalisation to the every one who is currently pricing up flights and booking hotels.

Santas Ghetto = Bethlehem, by jfury on Dec 3, 2007 14:59:43 GMT 1, I am contemplating going out there so emailed Dora this morning to ask and she confirmed the originals and the auction. As stated above I would like to have some idea of what is available - obviosuly the experience and the show will be out of this world but still nice to know what the whole trip entails.

I think the site tells you most of it. All of the originals are there to see as is a list of the prints that will be coming out over the month online.
It seems fair to me that the Ghetto has actually let you see the goods before making the journey.

hey, I know it wasn't aimed specifically at me, but I meant that personally I wouldn't do it for the art it would be about the issues rased by why they have chosen Bethlehem, but I'm sure people have their own reasons for wanting to go...just offering my point of view...thanks for getting back to me.

I'll have you know Murdoch's empire is populated by quite a few left-leaning pinkos...including a former member of the ALF and someone who used to go on solidarity missions to Chiapas. Mind the sweeping judgements. That's the sort of thing that gets you killed in the West Bank.
