Banksy's brand new version of GWB for Syria , by Goooogle Male on Mar 12, 2014 15:04:06 GMT 1,
Reclusive British street artist Banksy has reworked one of his most celebrated pieces to mark the third anniversary of the ongoing conflict in Syria.
The image of a girl with a balloon will be projected onto various international landmarks on 13 March, among them the Eiffel Tower and Nelson's Column.
The new image will promote #withsyria, a campaign to rally support for victims of the conflict.

a) He would realise a great deal of money for the charity and purchasers who would have a poignant reminder of the slaughter in Syria
b) He would realise a great deal of money for the charity and the primary purchasers would churn them out for a 5000% markup to be spunked on facile shite, the eventual purchasers would then have a poignant reminder of the slaughter in Syria
This is why he is now residing in *** and why he wont be releasing any public prints in the future. This is why he is so totally fucking sick of the circus and the wankers involved that he considered going public and hanging up his cans.
innit

It's much Simpler than a print run

Banksy's brand new version of GWB for Syria , by Unica on Mar 13, 2014 0:52:46 GMT 1, Agreed, much easier to sell an original, just like he did with the Haiti balloon a month a go that Chris Martin bought. I don't think we will see this as a print, I wonder if we will see another print that is sold to the public. I know VIPS once in a while get offered something new.

Banksy's brand new version of GWB for Syria , by Deleted on Mar 13, 2014 2:42:17 GMT 1, I emailed the website to see if a print was going to be released and received this reply:
Hi Bryan,
thanks for your interest in the campaign. Banksy is in possession of the print and has disallowed the image's use for merchandising. There are no plans of him selling it.
Best wishes,

agree. I certainly think he'd have had final approval over all the vids.
Probably supplied a treatment / artwork to an animation company and then signed it off when happy with it.

Banksy's brand new version of GWB for Syria , by Feral Things on Mar 13, 2014 14:16:48 GMT 1, It's an appalling situation when those living in Jordanian refuge camps are the 'lucky' ones. I just hope that this time next year we're not still talking about when this might all end. It's a salient thought for us all that this is all happening in the oldest inhabited cities on earth.
