3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by valeha on Dec 15, 2007 23:32:59 GMT 1, I'm not sure if he has had any shows, but it will be interesting to see if he does have one sometime in the near future.

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by giiiant on Dec 15, 2007 23:40:59 GMT 1, Has 3d ever done any big shows or anything I mean Ghetto is a big name but the foot traffic exposure certainly is limited.
He had a some shows (there was one in NY for definate) a few years ago, he mainly gets his work out through album covers (Massive attack, Unkle etc). He's been quiet recently but hopefully this is the start of something big. Plus there's his musical background, that gets him some major points.

POW said "with detail by Banksy" (or something along those lines)

The guy can clearly paint so why would Banksy have done the detail? Tis interesting.

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by monstris on Dec 16, 2007 14:29:31 GMT 1, This thread is making me regret letting go of my 3Ds. Had In Baghdad and Insect President (orange). Signed. The first one in particular kept giving me bad flashbacks... so I had to get rid of it. And the latter was given as a wedding present to a good friend.

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by valeha on Dec 16, 2007 15:52:59 GMT 1, Monstris, its a shame you had to give up your In Baghdad due to the memories it was stoking up - I'm guessing you or your family have been affected by war. I'm sorry about that.
For me it is a very powerful piece, as are all his new works. Will be very interesting to see how his art progresses (well interesting and expansive for me - coz i bloody love it!)
take care V

The red splats on one of the 3D prints were by Banksy, the reason POW didnt say anything imo is they would have sold out in seconds becuase of the Banksy link and not the fact that people liked the print.

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by valeha on Dec 16, 2007 16:35:11 GMT 1, Thanks for that ABC. +1 when I can. I wonder why Banksy did the red splats?
I guess it was clever of POW to conceal it so that people would buy it for loving his work!

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by ABC on Dec 16, 2007 16:39:19 GMT 1, The 3D prints were on POW for ages, long after flippers started buying up Banksy prints in July 06, I think they eventually sold out in early 07 and when they did sell out, a source mentioned that they had been done by Mr B himself.

Just shows you how effective it is. He touched somewhere deep. His work is genuinely unnerving, even if you can't directly relate to living through war. I love work where you connect to the artist and can sense their soul. He's being true to himself, and there's something very honest about his work, or it wouldn't cause this kind of reaction. A few people have said they don't want it on their wall cos its too creepy. Personally, I'd rather have that reaction than apathy because its causing a strong feelingn. He isn't trying to create beauty, though his range of marks is beautiful IMO - its like he's multi-lingual (visually) and if it was abstract, it would still be deep and emotionally provoking.

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by valeha on Dec 17, 2007 1:06:17 GMT 1, Not that I want one, but has anyone on here got one or both of the Insect presidents? and did you know that the detail was by Mr Banksy?
(ok maybe I want one a little - but know I won't be able to afford it, plus I like In Baghdad a bit more)

3D Santa's Ghetto Surprise Star?, by fecam on Dec 17, 2007 10:13:48 GMT 1, I don't buy that "detail by Banksy" bollocks. It was a painted cross for christsake - a 2 year old sould have done that.
Sounds more like a seller talking up the bidding by namedropping Mr B.
I lost out on that auction btw - gutted...
As far as the Baghdad print being culled - I wouldn't be surprised to see it pop up in the Lazinc print shop..
