Wonder why the website is only updated with the mobile lovers mural... not the "phone hackers"

It's been done in his studio - he's sick of people stealing his work.

Nice oxymoron !

Welcome back.

Off topic but cakeboy that's a stunning Eine original you have on eBay and a bargain price too imho. I meant to post a link to it on here incase folks missed it!

Back to Banksy now :-)

Find it very hard to believe that this has been painted on an easily removable piece of ply held in place with philips screws. Lighting looks weird too. Did that pic of the lad throwing up flowers ever get found? Not sure this one will either!

Fragile is always here, he is omnipresent.

So this is a banksy and on his website and no one knows where it is. The other one in cheltenham which fragile was first to locate has not been outed as a banksy. Then wiz on fragiles instagram coming out of a phonebox. I smell a rat here. I think the phonebox one is a wiz and fragile image of whats on the wiz and fragile collaborative t shirt. 

With NO CONNECTION to wiz or fragile, I can assure you that is NOT their Tee

The light source is all wrong imo the main lighting is not coming from that lamp or a camera flash. The blue background is strange too. The plyboard held on with screws? Banksy wouldnt paint that! I would put good money on this not being found, not on the street anyway!

In any case, how could all that gubbins actually fit on a T Shirt?.

I think it's done with a long exposure to capture the saturation,as well as a pop of flash. The shadow cast by the lampost is coming exactly from the camera.

The section of brickwork on the left is definitely an opening that has been bricked up using blocks laid flat on their side. I've been running through planning applications at Cheltenham to find permissions of entrances that have been blocked up to no avail. Although I'm starting to think if it were in Cheltenham, in public, it would have been spotted by now. 

I believe it is in public, all the small details like the pavement scar around the lampost, the capping brick on the stonework wall. I don't think sets are that good are they? 

Fantastic piece tho.

What about the fact that this is painted on a piece of wood that is clearly screwed to a wall. If you zoom in you can see the screws. Banksy would not paint this on the street, would he?

Local papers round yer proclaiming the mobile lovers piece is also in Cheltenham. They are horribly misinformed down here ,the BBC guy at the spy telephone box yesterday was actually waiting for a reply from robin gunningham on Facebook a bit nieve and lazy.

Also if you are swinging by these parts on the weekend there is a bit of an arts festival thing going on at Gloucester docks withlocal artists taking part ,it's brand new this year and organised by beastie and other around here so maybe worth a look . Also the docks are really nice anyway and only 8 miles up the road from the banksy at Cheltenham.

I am in no way connected to either tourist information of these towns tbh it's a bit like westeros around here I'm just sharing my local knowledge.
