Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by drachinfire on Oct 31, 2013 4:41:45 GMT 1, To tide you guys over in the meantime...
I figure a few shots with the crowd to set the scene would be nice, too.

Really owe you one - we all do --> you've been quite the anchor here. And these photos are insane.
In the morning I'm going to show this one to Mr. B and suggest they be included in the new book! ;-)

I've got a few hundred snaps of all but a handful of the pieces before any of them got defaced. I'm still a week or so behind sorting through everything for good shots. |

Anyone else think this is a bit of an ego piece?
I don't mean that in a bad way. Ban Sky deserves some serious respect and gratitude for whats gone on the past month.
He's the cat. Relaxed and refined despite all the times hes been gone over and what not. Whatever.
A leopard can change his spots.

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by Deleted on Oct 31, 2013 5:28:08 GMT 1, My guess this is old news. But just in case...
"New York - It seems you can sell anything to anyone.
After Banksy set up a stall in New York selling his artwork for $60, without telling anyone and not selling much, to show that people pay for the name and not the actual art, a group of artists decided to further his social commentary and set up shop in the same place that Banksy had his stall, selling fake versions of the graffiti artist's work.
They put all the details on the Fakebook website, documenting the day in the same vein that Banksy did his experiment.
It sold out in an hour.
The worst part? They were completely honest about the work being fake. There was even a sign that said 'Fake Banksy' and each piece came with a 'Certificate of Inauthenticity'.
The group consisted of Dave Cicirelli, author of Fakebook, Lance Armstrong, an event promoted, Georger Gross, a filmmaker and Michael Pilgrim, who is only described as "the man".
On the website, Cicirelli explains that they "saw an opportunity for a little mischief, and a chance to make a statement about the nature of hype, public personas, and the value of art".
Watch the documented video of the Fake Banksy sell-out:"

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by randomname on Oct 31, 2013 6:29:45 GMT 1, I've been seeing a lot of "I am Banksy" shirts and signs on Instagram. So my prediction for tomorrow is he walks around all day wearing an "I am Banksy" t-shirt and films it. Hiding his identity in the video, of course. I haven't made an accurate prediction yet, so I'm due.

I figure a few shots with the crowd to set the scene would be nice, too. (Note, if you right click and view image, it shows the image in full resolution, which is basically 4K quality)
Just to add its been great seeing all the brilliant pics and hearing all the on the spot news from you lot over in NY so thanks for that. Im hoping there will still be quite a few undiscovered Banksys showing up from his holiday once its over,also looking forward to seeing friends from UK who have been there for the whole month following it all as missed them here.
Been great.
Ta.
So now its over New York....

Yeah, they were.
Have you seen ETTGS? Banksy explains it pretty well.
Seems like MBW was always setting himself up for a fall, and that's why they like him. Like Karl Pilkington/Ricky Gervais relationship.

I'll echo that. It's been an extraordinary and exciting month for fans old and new and for me it's been the extra narrative played out across the internet after each reveal that has made this all the more rewarding, and the NYC members have indeed played an important role.

BUT Ive decided to log back in - Just want to say a massive THANK YOU to everyone. Especially all the NYers. Its really really awesome waking up every morning here in Asia to go through a mountain of posts, arguments, dissections, discourses, jokes... ahh... it really reminds me of the good ole days of this forum!
And its also really nice to see familiar voices still around! From Lee3, to Afrika, to Wearology, to Harvyen and of course WIZ... We are just lacking BONGO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you all. It has been one WILD ride.
