Help: Identifying Artist(s)...Kees Smits + ???, by ricobenfico on Mar 10, 2017 16:33:57 GMT 1, Thanks tartarus, I saw the biog's for Kees Smits.
Hadn't tried a reverse image search on the other. Think I've managed it now but it just threw up a load of generic 'painting'.....

Help: Identifying Artist(s)...Kees Smits + ???, by ricobenfico on Mar 10, 2017 15:19:21 GMT 1, Hi All, been a while, hope everyone is well and behaving themselves!
I'm trying to identify what I can from a painting (and x2 other bits) as to the artist details, career, representation, value etc please. The following pieces were previously hung in a global financial institution's headquarters and donated to a charity but have languished in storage for a while. The new Chief is trying desperately to identify just what he has in his possession......let's see if the power of the forum can help again.....
From the signature, it seems to be dutch artist, Kees Smits......anyone add to this......
This one below seems to be 1/1 entitled Skyline III by artist R.Tam.....? Might just be low end standard 'art' for hanging in offices, but best to check...!!! Any help, much appreciated......

SEEN 🇺🇸 Richard "Richie" Mirando • Godfather of Graffiti, by ricobenfico on Mar 10, 2017 14:48:12 GMT 1, I'm always late to the party on these, by the time the notification comes through online/social media, it's game over, all gone.
He's certainly up'ed the ante in producing work in the past few months. I too particularly like the canvas' over the paper/card edition (previously had one of these). Seem pretty good value for who he is and how iconic they are.

I reckon I've retired from my Santa role, been too long! Coach is much fitter and leaner to continue with fumbling around in his big sack for all the good boys and girls on here.....
If you've not got the link to previous years threads Coach, give me a shout...

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by ricobenfico on Sept 18, 2015 14:36:20 GMT 1, @drplip Looks like 11 has more than answered your query to me.
Would agree that they are a charity and not an art dealer but in actual fact, I bought something from the shop so others may do so too. Donations would be greatfully received I'm sure!

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by ricobenfico on Sept 16, 2015 19:27:57 GMT 1, @nordicstar The place I'm staying in is cheap basic and does the job. It's on the street opposite Dismaland and called The Bear Inn. Might be what your looking for.
Don't just look on the big websites such as booking dot com Expedia etc. I was surprised at the number of guests house s etc in and around the area. You'll find something.

BANKSY Curated Show "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by ricobenfico on Sept 15, 2015 16:05:24 GMT 1, So, wandering around #WSM this morning and something catches my eye in a charity shop, so I popped in. It was the Banksy ER dishcloth. They were sent 150 of them and sold out in less than a day. The volunteers in the shop were delighted and over the moon about the money they made for charity. It was all a bit of a mystery to them. Fair play!
Reminds me of the stickers sent to the Oxfam charity shop across from the Bristol Museum during that show.
