Banksy’s GCHQ spy mural to be sold???, by Deleted on Jun 27, 2014 18:59:43 GMT 1, Anyone ever think that Banksy is affiliated with the Bank Robber Gallery somehow. I've heard people close to the main man refer to him as Robin Banks, we all get the pun I know. The contact at the gallery is Robin and Banksy is so methodical with everything he does. It wouldn't put it past me that he has a hand in who removes his street pieces. Of course he would never authentic them because it would damage his image but they still sell for a pretty penny. As long as he posts them on his website, people will know that they're authentic works. Just a thought... exactamundo
and when I suggested something similar I was attacked for even suggesting that Hirst who backed Sky Grimes financially to set up the scaffold firm to be able to remove Banksy's wall renderings and provide scaffold to artists to make art on walls in high places, (falling shopping trolley springs to mind). That maybe Hirst was behind this and also Hirst who promoted Banksy in a group show years ago too is a bit of a coincidence.
also I am certain that Banksy is not stupid yet he keeps making the same mistake and then moaning about how it's not right.
He paints something on a wall with stencils and then he tells the world he did it by posting it on his website thereby authenticating it and then wonder of wonders the thing gets removed from the wall and then he says it's not right alowng with his followers and what does he do about it to stop it going on.
He does the same thing with his next wall image and the next.
If he doesn't want it to be removed then don't post an image of it on the website and let the thing fade away and when it's too far gone or been vandalised away or removed then say by the way. Thats one of mine.
So why spray on a wall he doesn't own and then tell the world he did it and then the same guys buy the thing off the wall owner?
ps
Brian Sewell on his site identifies Banksy as Robin Banks and no one has asked Sewell why he is convinced about the name.
All of that is pure shite. As usual.

Banksy’s GCHQ spy mural to be sold???, by Invaded 420 on Jun 27, 2014 19:13:08 GMT 1, I'm sure banksy isn't that pissed about his pieces being removed. As stated in the letter to the boxing club guy. It's entertaining for him to post a pic of his piece and watch the craziness happen. I'm sure he dont give a shit about the piece once its painted photographed and been seen by people. The job/message is done

I don't know, but my gut feeling is that banksy probably is quite pissed at seeing these antics. I genuinely believe banksy puts his work on the streets because he still wants to make a critical comment about society. And profiteering often flies in the fave of that. Also explains the continued and quite right refusal to authenticate.

I wonder if the boxing club claiming the plywood peice buggered it up for the likes of Sky Grimes?
All in all it was a good thing for the museum to grab the picture quickly so that the likes of Grimes couldn't get his hands on it.
The Cheltenham piece according to the Grauniad paper was purchased from the owner by Grimes a week before Banksy posted on his site that he did it.
Sky News reports that the piece will be auctioned.

If you go to the video on Youtube it has this as the description.
""Following all the press storm in the summer 2013 of the removal of "No Ball Games" peice by Banksy, we reveal who was responsible. We have found this leaked video. Sky Grimes from Q Scaffolding is Banksy!!! He is the one who legally sold his own painting from the wall. The art was painted on walls of people who were employed by Q Scaffolding. It was set up from the start! Sky Grimes is Banksy - check out his Linked In. It is so obvious. Why has no one realised this before??? Check Out www.wefoundbanksy.com.""

Trouble is there is no actual debate from you Ploppi, it is quite clear that you are jealous of Banksys success to the point of it being an obsession with you.
I think it best I just pop you on block.
Love you.

Banksy’s GCHQ spy mural to be sold???, by Dr Plip on Jun 29, 2014 14:33:04 GMT 1, For the sake of f**k.
"The art dealer said a six-figure deal was now near completion with the "local business community" that would ensure the work remains at the site."
Don't pay money for street pieces. Don't ever pay money for street pieces. That'll only encourage this s**t.
F**k it. Let them try and remove it. My guess is, they know they can't and it'll be the world's most expensive Banksy jigsaw if they do.
Edit: Hang on. I just realised this was from a newspaper. It must be bollocks.
