GREAT NEW PIECE IN MANCHESTER - WARDEN MUMMY, by snare on Apr 30, 2008 15:52:56 GMT 1, I work at the Manchester Evening News and I am told Banksy's 'spokesman' has denied any involvement. The story will be on page 3 of the paper tomorrow.

Why does everyone automatically assume anything like this is Banksy (not you, the MEN) when a little research will show it's not

Because he is the only artist of this calibre that the average man knows of. I doubt the traffic wardens in the photos were dismissing it as a Banksy because of the well constructed feet! ;D

I can assure you that the MEN did not "automatically assume" this was a Banksy and that 'a little research' was done. The piece was spotted by a photographer out on another job who noticed other people taking pictures of it. It was obvious to me and others at the MEN that it wasn't a real Banksy, but the story is more that some members of the public clearly thought it might be and were getting excited about it. That is still a legitimate story.

This person claims to "know lots of local artists but no idea who did this" and adds "everyone reckons it could be a banksy!" hmmm

Doesn't bode well for the Cans festival does it, probably an army of tooled up white van men en route to London as we speak.

GREAT NEW PIECE IN MANCHESTER - WARDEN MUMMY, by cas on Apr 30, 2008 19:48:15 GMT 1, i stumbbled upon this last night on my way to Spar (I live about 20 metres away). I don't know why they used a crow bar - I took it out of the wall last night to have a good look see if it was signed on the back and then just placed it back where I found it. Shame it's gone.
