Love it.
Venus fly traps and mousetraps in the flower bouquet seal the deal for me.

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by kbfrombk on Feb 12, 2014 3:49:33 GMT 1, i am honestly stunned by this thread in all sorts of ways. i repeat im 99.9% sure its not banksy and i never linked it to him. i know it sounds hard to understand working with a artist you have never met and dont know who they are but you do get a feel for people in emails and i go on gut instinct right or wrong but i do. to be fair to this print its a beautiful 6 colour screen print, i am bummed no one noticed the flash of gold metallic in the yellow of the flowers thats the geek i am... Living in Brooklyn and enjoying last October, I would have to say that if the print itself is not considered a BANKSY then this thread at least should be considered a BANKSY! And I'd drop a few quid for a gamble, what the hell.

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by BKBOI on Feb 12, 2014 3:52:26 GMT 1, 90 quid for an MBW is a fair price. Did you send the prints out to the US to be signed? Are we expecting a thumb print in the back?

I know you are saying MBW sucks, but in all honesty he sucks way too much to be subtle IMHO.

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by randomname on Feb 12, 2014 4:39:16 GMT 1, The point is someone could buy the print thinking it was made by Banksy, liking the image just fine. Then find out they were tricked. And that the person who posted it on Facebook is impersonating Banksy. If this were the case, I suspect they wouldn't be so fond of the image. That said, there's just an overall air of dishonesty about this print that I personally don't like. Even if you think he's only trying to con people hoping to cash in, it's still shady. OK, now we're getting to the crux of what I'm talking about: How were they "tricked"? Did they only like the piece of art if they thought it was a secret Banksy? Do they not like it if it turns out that it wasn't made by Banksy? Then they bought it for the wrong reason. If the only reason they buy the print is because they think it's Banksy, they are buying it for the wrong reason. I get the points you're making, about the shady FB page and all, but you're still saying they were tricked because they thought it was Banksy. Which implies it is somehow worth less if it's not, meaning their enjoyment is tied to the cachet of Banksy, not because they like the image.
That's not what I'm saying at all. An analogy would be a gift from a girlfriend. Say she bought you a sweater and you loved it. It was your favorite sweater. Then she cheats on you with your brother. Now every time you look at it, you think of her cheating on you with your brother. The sweater didn't change. You didn't only like it because she gave it to you. But now you associate it with something negative, taking all the joy out of it.
Simple question. Do you not think this is deceptive in any way? Or do you just think it's okay to deceive people if they're buying it for the wrong reasons in your opinion?

Maybe I would shrug my shoulders and think "cest la vie"?
At least I would know that I had followed my heart and not my head. I knew she was a no good tramp, but that ASDA sweater really brought out my eyes, so....

It is not signed Banksy, it isn't a Banksy image and the image isn't being sold as a Banksy (meaning the gallery isn't selling it as such, despite the "99.9% sure" thing, which I agree is a little too sly, but since no one "officially" knows who Banksy is, he's close enough). I think anyone clever enough to follow the dots between the web site and the gallery is also clever enough to see that it's not actually a Banksy. Using your analogy of the sweater, it would only work if someone told you it was a Donna Karan (for example), but then once you got it the label said "Bob's Sweaters," the receipt said "Bob's Sweaters" and the bag was from "Bob's Sweaters" but you continue to believe it was a Donna Karan. |

here we have an instance of a reseller/printer who knows now that the artist they are representing is doing wrong (as a gag, performance piece, or attempt at fraud). I would not wish the crap storm that GP will receive on anyone, but they sort of have it coming if they go ahead with this release. If they put a large disclaimer, flashing, in all caps on the buy page they will still have people buying it and feeling deceived.
see the recent dal, stik, or retna releases as reference and that is just the last 60 days.
and by the way. isnt there supposed to be a Pez release tomorrow. why are they screwing over a reputable high class artist like Pez for this nonsense. Shouldn't he be pissed

That was an example of how your feelings about an object could change despite the object not changing in any way.
But to your point, the seller is implying it's a print by Banksy. He's posing as Banksy on Facebook and other sites. It seams pretty obvious he's trying to make people believe it's Banksy pretending not to be Banksy.

If you like the art, buy it. If not, put your money elsewhere. It's not that complicated. Personally, I like the print quite a bit.

It is an example of an "artist" trying to deceive gullible people into thinking he might be Banksy. Graffiti Prints has to accept that they are in business with the artist and they represent him and his work. If they don't approve of the way this artist is hyping/marketing himself then they should say so and take appropriate steps to distance themselves. If they are fine with it then they should let it go, not comment and hope it sells out. They can't play innocent and say they are just printing and selling them but have nothing to do with how the artist is marketing himself and the print.

Maybe the artist is saying that he hasn't forgot about the time Banksy grassed him up and it's time for payback by means of an identity revalation (rat trap).
Elephants never forget, right? Maybe the elephant is the elephant from the LA show. The one Banksy painted to blend in with the room. Wasn't there furore over that? Animal cruelty? Maybe the rat rubbing his paws together represents Banksy himself and the elephant is attempting to repay that cruelty with a spiked bunch of flowers.
Whatever it means, it's a £50 print if ever I saw one.

Enjoy the sale pitch THE WHITE TUSKY ********************* "The white tusky", 2012 Four colours, hand-sprayed on fine art paper; edition of 10. Standard paper size: 20 x 24 inches (508 x 609 mm), image size: 18 x 22 inches; fit any 20 x 24 inches standard frames Photo credit: Samantha Beddoes |

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by maxf on Feb 12, 2014 9:07:43 GMT 1, Of course GP know who this artist is. How can anybody believe they don't?
You can't just deposit sale funds into an unknowns bank account these days as a business - their accountants/auditors would have a heart attack.

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by Art Fan 2011 on Feb 12, 2014 9:24:53 GMT 1, 6 pages about a very poor print by a complete unknown novice artist, unreal! Not sure if it's been mentioned, but how on earth can a price tag of £150 for an open edition be justified by a totally unknown artist with zero reputation - Absolute rubbish !!!!! (And we all know that Banksy is better than this, so don't get your hopes up at picking up a cheap print by the man himself) I don't understand the mystery though??

OUTIS • Print Release • Street Art, by vinylcoholic on Feb 12, 2014 9:31:37 GMT 1, anyone who thinks that people will connect the dots, get well informed, and go along with a fun little gag has not been around very long or has a very short memory. feel free to go back and check any normal gallery release or online release and see the crap storm galleries get hit with while doing the right thing and trying their best to do right by loyal customers. here we have an instance of a reseller/printer who knows now that the artist they are representing is doing wrong (as a gag, performance piece, or attempt at fraud). I would not wish the crap storm that GP will receive on anyone, but they sort of have it coming if they go ahead with this release. If they put a large disclaimer, flashing, in all caps on the buy page they will still have people buying it and feeling deceived. see the recent dal, stik, or retna releases as reference and that is just the last 60 days. and by the way. isnt there supposed to be a Pez release tomorrow. why are they screwing over a reputable high class artist like Pez for this nonsense. Shouldn't he be pissed
Maybe this is all just brilliant viral marketing
