Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by Deleted on Oct 2, 2013 15:16:13 GMT 1, From rae_bk Instagram last night. " rae_BK: Always happy to help a visiting friend put up work especially when it ends with Wo Hops." Wonder if there's a connection??? Are we even to believe Banksy is putting up his own work these days.

Does this mean it was Bast who painted the first one white?

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by Deleted on Oct 2, 2013 15:48:33 GMT 1, If I were Banksy I would buff each piece after each day. I'd hate the perspex to come out or chunks of wall at the auction house. Get the photo, release the book. Job done. Limit the event to October 2013 as the heading says. Much more powerful statement I reckon.

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by BK83 on Oct 2, 2013 15:51:27 GMT 1, My thoughts are that he is not even putting up the works, but is rather unveiling them. I bet they were all done over the course of the last few weeks or so---behind scaffolding, behind wooden construction barriers, and etc.---and now those barriers, scaffolding, and/or other means of hiding his (and his team's efforts), are just being taken down in the early hours of the morning very unassumingly. Et voila, new Banksy.

Interesting idea that and would make a lot of sense. People wouldn't be as vigilant in the lead up to the event

^ This.
So 'Better Out Than In' wasn't some clever metaphor. It's just stuff outside innit?
The style is the same as always, no progression in execution from previous stuff, making witty comments, site-specific pieces. OK. Continue.

Banksy - Better Out Than In - New York - BOTI, by Wearology on Oct 2, 2013 16:10:05 GMT 1, The October 2nd painting is not on shutters - it is actually on a heavy duty security steel gate that is attached to a steel awning that is attached to a building. It would be impossible to remove from the outside but could be removed from the inside. The only way anyone is stealing # 2 is by blow torch and that would be risky in NYC. There is a Howard Johnson hotel in between the 2 paintings I wonder if Mr. B is slumming it in NYC.

I'm not going to randomly walk around the West Side (which is petty vague and large) hoping to come across the new piece. As of yesterday, it took most of the day for someone to find and post the location and by night it was vandalized and gone....

You didn't by any chance get the location in, let's say, a PDF?
 Kidding aside if you really know the location, then out with it. (hero or zero)
edit: just posted on twitter It’s on 25th Street between 10th and 11th

I wouldn't be surprised.
Some may be with wall owners consent... and some could be large, legal murals.
Just have to wait and see I guess.
Not sure if I'm the first to say it, but what the hell: I'd like a print of the first piece!
It would go very nicely with No Ball Games and Very Little Helps (neither of which I have!)

I am on my way to the 2nd one now and will confirm the location once I stand in front of it with my camera and post it on here only. If it's not where I think it is than we will all know in the next 30 minutes.

It's certainly renewed my passion for the blokes work. No other artists grabs my attention like this....
