Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by ecb on May 13, 2012 22:29:36 GMT 1, I have to assume at this point this print is not getting released. As someone speculated earlier, is Banksy ever going to release another print?
Just a gut feeling but he'd be better off not making prints imo. With the scandal at POW over the oneoff colorways sold by ex-employees, he should stick to selling original art. As an owner of 3 Banksy prints, all signed and #'d, I wouldn't mind him not making prints. The last several have done nothing for me anyway (except keep the values of my 07/08/09 Banksy'd from growing in value). I love his prints as art, but lets be real, they are also investments.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by bullet on May 13, 2012 22:41:47 GMT 1, Pure speculaation alert...
But wonder if them being closed and moving (speculative) has something to do with losing banksy (speculative)
Prints did not happen, theres obviously been something going on and his page has been on that site for 3 years now with nothing on it. More for the hits im guessing.

Maybe they lost him years ago and the last few print releases have just been knocked out by them without his involvement. Who'd know?
;D

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by pcant on May 14, 2012 8:36:55 GMT 1, Not sure what I inadvertantly alluded to, I don't actually know anything. I was just being pessimistic (it's been delayed twice now, the glitter excuse seems like a ruse, Banksy print releases, it would appear, are slowing down, etc...) so I know nothing about nothing in re: to a ACTUAL reason why it might not be released. Just for the record.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by Happy Shopper on May 14, 2012 8:54:15 GMT 1, I think Banksy is too much a part of POW to leave them.
It may be that they've got bored of releasing prints.
It could be that they'll release the print in a new and interesting way... Hence delayed.
Or it could be that the print just looks bad, so abandoned !?

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by iamzero on May 14, 2012 8:57:19 GMT 1, Weakest image they could've gone for in my opinion. I'm not sure what the gorilla means if anything at all?
Maybe they're having a rethink?

In a way the gorilla image is a poignant self-portrait as well as being a street piece that works well on paper, on the other hand its a dodgy drawing of a primate with funny hair on its arms that doesnt quite match up.
Each to his own I suppose.
I firmly believe that we wont see any prints released again at way below market value in the manner seen previously, and why should we?
If wimpy started building houses and selling them for 10k each so that people fought over them only to sell them for 100k each a month later we would think that the property market was slightly odd, not to mention that their business model was flawed.
I love a good bunfight but I get my F5 rocks off in places other than POW these days, the buzz aint quite the same but it does the job.
;D

Don't be a martyr - you then trade it for one you do like.

Did that sentence ever finish, or is it still going on somewhere in a parallel universe?

Maybe this one is not worth being tamed and crushed as a bug on a print !
Pow is still close too... They prepare the show and clean the cage...
Tamers and printers, the same fight!
Stayin' alive !
