BANKSY Extraction Team VIDEO New, by artstylee on Dec 25, 2009 20:48:27 GMT 1, I figured everybody already saw this video I stumbled upon. But I've never seen those 2 BANKSY pieces.
and Video is 2 months old. But only got 207 Views.
So I figure nobody has seen it yet.
Wonder what those 2 pieces are worth?
I'd love to have the bird piece. But I assume it's worth 100,000 or so.
Did those two sell at auction or direct to buyers?
Merry Christmas Art Enthusiasts,
Enjoy
FOUND IT AT walartinc.com/

BANKSY Extraction Team VIDEO New, by findtom on Dec 26, 2009 5:04:52 GMT 1, Bird piece in the video is nice  but its still pretty sad seeing them cut out of the wall like that 
Agreed - the whole wall cutting thing is ridiculous, let alone an "extraction team" making a business of it. I feel the same way when they cover his pieces in plexiglass or whatever, it just makes it feel like the commercialization of street art has gone too far.

BANKSY Extraction Team VIDEO New, by Guest on Dec 26, 2009 6:20:26 GMT 1, This video was originally edited about a year ago, although it was just posted to YouTube recently. The "team" did it to save the bookstore; a great resource for people acting for social change in Los Angeles. The owners of the bookstore were the only people to benefit from this sale.
Both pieces sold, and I may be wrong, but I think the bird was sold at the Santa Monica Auctions.
Wal Art, Inc. is an art space owned by Jamie Beardsley, a film producer who linked up with Modern Multiples and JetSet Graffiti last year. She's a nice person who co-published Ernesto Yerena and Becca with us over the summer... Her art space, Wal Art, has been around on La Cienega Blvd. for a couple of years now...
Richard Duardo printed the Banksy LA suite of prints, has printed for Shepard for 9 years, and in the past year has made editions by Futura, Ron English, D*Face, and Saber among many other street artists. Modern Multiples and JetSet Graffiti regularly produce and publish editions by many of your favorite street artists.

Am I correct in thinking that (jet set) you are once again involved
in the removal sale of Banksy street work ?

BANKSY Extraction Team VIDEO New, by snausages on Dec 26, 2009 17:36:33 GMT 1, When I saw the title of this thread "BANKSY Extraction Team VIDEO "
I thought, what kind of trouble did B get into now? I imagined a raw video of Banksy's swat style team of security that leapt to his aid and helped "extract" him from the grips of say the police or a rival gang who jumped him while in the midst of throwing something up.
Instead all I get is this!? A video of an opportunistic **** who takes advantage of Banksy. Sigh.

of course he is curley, etset was involved in the removal of 3 pieces in palestine, 2 of which ended up on vermins website
jetset was also involved in the removal of a couple of street pieces in LA, if you ask him nicely he has access to other streetpieces removed by the extraction team

No, I'm sorry, You are incorrect...
I had NOTHING to do with this video, or this "extraction". I am partners with Duardo on the printing end of things... If I did the video, I would have taken credit with my intro. and spinning logo.
I have NEVER had anything to do with any Banksy removal, in Palestine, Los Angeles or otherwise I did go to Palestine with POW for the Santa's Ghetto to help the artists with the show. Honestly, I probably wouldn't have gone if I wasn't INVITED!
Please note the part in the movie where Michael Slate says, "We can't thank Banksy enough for what he's done for us." Perhaps this alludes to a certain communication between the owner of the artwork and the artist? Has Banksy been known to leave works behind as charity work? YES! He is bar-none the most generous artist I know of.
Please be mindful that this piece was MOVED from an indoor installation, NOT REMOVED from outdoors... Very clear distinction in how these pieces should be treated. Regardless, we just wanted to clear this up with the FACTS before the usual suspects start jumping at us again...

Hilarious!
Those ARE some pretty heavy allegations though; aren't they?
But, since you are pushing these allegations forward in a public forum, you must have some facts or some kind of proof to back this up, right? I mean, you woudn't just embarass yourself by coming here and saying these things without proof, or facts, would you?
My challenge to you is to provide one fact, or just one piece of proof that what you say is true.
It's apparent that you are attempting to discredit us and damage our business, and that's not fair without the facts to back it up to the community...
Please either provide the facts behind the allegations, or apologize. Thanks, we appreciate it.

LOL, this reminds me of those ebay auctions where some flipper gets a print and immediately puts it on ebay claiming that they can't thank Banksy enough because they have a baby on the way, and their roof needs fixing etc. Ridiculous. This is nothing but SPIN.
It by no means indicates Banksy intended this pieces to be resold. I don't know why Banksy would spray something up on the top corner of a wall if he meant it to be resold.
So what exactly is that distinction?
Don't play dumb. It's one thing to happen to have a piece thrown up on your wall (without permission) and decide you will "extract" it. It's a whole other low, to ask Banksy to throw something up in your store for the sole purpose of cashing in on it. That's lower than low. If the "art" was left on the wall, maybe he would have gotten some extra business out of it from people coming to the store to see itโthat is, if it's actually real. But no, he (possibly created an elaborate hoax) and or just took the easy cash.
I can't believe that anyone would spend money on that piece.

It wasn't "alleged", it is a fact, I gave $1000 to 5 different Palestinian families. They went to Santa's Ghetto on their own and each talked to POW about buying a print. It was obvious, these Palestinians were NOT art collectors. They didn't even know who Banksy was, they are to concerned about SURVIVAL...

The world may never know what Banksy's intentions are when making art; frankly it's his business as the artist. As far as I am concerned, We should enjoy the art for what it is...
You are clearly misguided, since you insinuate that this was an elaborate "Hoax" by one of the most well respected printers/publishers in this game.
You have no idea about the true context here, so don't be a dick about it. The piece was used to save the bookstore. What, don't you like books?

Yep, I absolutely deleted all those posts, because folks like yourself will take what I said and twist it out of context and make shit up to damage me, as we've already seen abundantly on this thread. It's like you people NEED a villain or something, my goodness!
I stand by everything that you quoted. The Palestinians became my friends through the experience of being there with them. They are beautiful people.
They emailed me asking me to buy it. I told them; I'm not interested, but I will tell people that it is for sale. I did that; telling people on this and other art forums that the piece was for sale...
I very clearly state, "I am not the seller, it's for a group of Palestinian men..."

You do a pretty good job of damaging yourself really. I've heard a lot of allegations about you and the truth probably is that it isn't as bad as has been suggested. (Although I doubt these accusations have been pulled completely out of thin air.)
But everytime you say something on here, wow, I could never bring myself to do business with you or any of your friends at this point.
So it's ok for you to suggest what Banksy's intentions were but not me?
Respected? Says who? I'm supposed to drop huge cash on this piece because he's a publisher that the venerable D Lahoda respects? If you're the type of person who wouldn't question the authenticity of a sprayed stencil on a piece of wallboard that the artist won't ever authenticate then I wish you were my client.
I rather think being a dick is being deceptive about your intentions and taking advantage of an artist, but to each their own I suppose.
Great, and the world would have ended if the store closed? But great, glad your friend cashed in. If the bookstore was in that dire of straights, then hold a benefit auction in its honor and ask Banksy to donate a piece of work for it. But to suggest that Banksy threw up some artwork in the top corner of a wall for the sole intention of "saving the bookstore" is grasping at straws for justification of the sale.
Yep, I absolutely deleted all those posts, because folks like yourself will take what I said and twist it out of context and make s**t up to damage me, as we've already seen abundantly on this thread. You do a pretty good job of damaging yourself really. I've heard a lot of allegations about you and the truth probably is that it isn't as bad as has been suggested. (Although I doubt these accusations have been pulled completely out of thin air.) But everytime you say something on here, wow, I could never bring myself to do business with you or any of your friends at this point.

Jet Set, why have you edited / deleted all your posts in the 'Palestine Splashed Donkey has been resurected...' thread. Got something to hide? Maybe a post like this - "Asking price is $500K, including shipping and all destination charges... Interested parties can PM me for sale consideration. I am not the seller, it's a group of Palestinian men with hungry families. I am just friends of theirs." See it all here - urbanartassociation.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=streetartgallery&thread=18893&page=1Yep, I absolutely deleted all those posts, because folks like yourself will take what I said and twist it out of context and make s**t up to damage me, as we've already seen abundantly on this thread. It's like you people NEED a villain or something, my goodness! I stand by everything that you quoted. The Palestinians became my friends through the experience of being there with them. They are beautiful people. They emailed me asking me to buy it. I told them; I'm not interested, but I will tell people that it is for sale. I did that; telling people on this and other art forums that the piece was for sale... I very clearly state, "I am not the seller, it's for a group of Palestinian men..."
What a great guy you are. Did you take a cut of the sale price for 'brokering the deal', as you did with the gold flags?

No, for the last time, I've never had anyhting to do with removing any Banksy artwork, and I haven't "brokered" any deals... I was just passing the message on to the community...
As for profit; yeah, I made my money back on the gold flags. That's not profit.
