Will Banksy ever release another print?, by born2sk8 on Nov 11, 2013 0:27:10 GMT 1, But the point is that it's making the print totally and utterly unavailable for a lots of Banksy fans in the first place. There must be lots of Banksy fans who were there from the beginning buying his prints for £70 who will feel totally betrayed by this. When I first started collecting Banksy prints they were £35 and I couldn't now afford one of these prints but I definitely don't feel betrayed or sore in any way. I think he's a great artist and I'm very glad he's getting the recognition and reward he deserves. It's the same situation as with most of the other artists whose work I've bought over the years; I can't afford to buy their work now but I can still enjoy their work even if I can't afford to buy it to hang in my own house.
Those who originally bought prints for £35-£70 would have purely been buying them because they liked the image and could now be sitting on a tidy sum. I don't think they would feel at all betrayed by a £15,000 print release, surely if nething that makes there older prints all the more valuable? Just my thoughts

Could someone explain the VIP 'thing' ? Who are VIP and why? Are VIPs people with cash to burn and POW decided that those are VIPs? Or are they famous people? Or personal friends? And who decides? Laz? POW? ..?

I have heard they have their own secret forum, they also have a monthly get together at a top London swanky hotel, discussing banksy pieces and boasting loud how much their collections are worth. Then they mock us normal working class folk on this forum for queuing up for scraps, entering lotteries and for buying time out posters and WCP fake prints. Then at the end of the party they have a swinging/wife swapping orgy of roman proportions where they don't put their keys in an ashtray, they have a banksy quiz.... the less knowledgeable you are your likely to get last pick, could end up getting a right minger!!!

Will Banksy ever release another print?, by otomi on Nov 11, 2013 8:06:01 GMT 1, It just feels weird that he complains about how much people pay for his work and then he only sells to VIPs. To be honest 30k for a silkscreen of a balloon is a joke. So I will take it as one of his art projects about people with more money than sense and move on. If you will the opposite of his canvas stall in central park.

Complains? I think he was making a point about the context within which art is viewed and the assumptions we make.
The show was about celebrating art for everyone, that doesn't mean he can't sell art for whatever he chooses just because we don't like it.
Life makes hypocrites of us all.

Will Banksy ever release another print?, by Deleted on Nov 11, 2013 12:38:00 GMT 1, LOL ^.
Re. this imaginary 'VIP' list, its only a list and people on it are not and never were VIPs (whatever that is?!) the people who were offered this were done so because they were spenders, Banksy himself had nothing at all to do with the imaginary list. Its just the same as when certain people are offered a PDF when others have to wait for it, also like when turning up at an art show on opening night to find some / most works are already red spotted.
VIPs are like celebrities, they only exist inside the bubble of their own tiny minds and egos.
*all of the above post i made up, dont put it in a book or anything.
