BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by cyberkid on Oct 6, 2015 16:29:07 GMT 1, The Paco print has been discussed a fair bit on the 'Latest buy' thread. I loved his stuff at Dismaland but genuinely find the print underwhelming - it doesn't capture the thickness of the paint used in the original. There was going to be another, digital/giclee, release, but this has since been scrapped. Another Dismaland piece (Rojo) is due to be released shortly New painting by Paco for his solo show on 10/9/15 
great ! i love pacos style... some infos:
SOLO EXHIBITION BY PACO POMET (ES)
October 9 โ November 14, 2015
Opening reception: Friday, October 9, 5-7 PM (Fredag, d.9 Okt, kl.17-19)
Palรฆgade 5, 1261 Copenhagen K.โจ Denmark
Phone: +45 2125 2325 & + 45 2197 2525
e-mail: bendixen@contemporary-art.dk
Wednesday โ Friday: 12-17, Sat: 12 โ 15
In this new small group of paintings presented for this new solo show, again no attempt of a โseriesโ has been made.
Working from vintage documentary photographs, most of them found in public archives, my attention was recently focused in images of people in many different scenarios.
Most of the โsourcesโ used as starting points for these paintings consist in photographs of people doing a specific task (working mainly). The pictures were taken indoors and outdoors, specially at the beggining of the XX century.
Once an image is chosen, most part of it is used to build a new painted image, but some parts of the original photograph are changed, ignored or replaced so the resultant image adopts a complete new meaning. A meaning that can be meningless: surreal, paradoxical, humorous, absurd, misterios, bizarre (many adjectives could fit hereโฆ)
It could be inferred that there is a common story line here, but it is a blurry line whatsoever.
We find ourselves faced with images that present scenes where unexpected and dreamlike situations take place. Apparently there is a specific task that has to be accomplished by the characters depicted but unexpectedly the viewer realizes that there is something wrong or weird going on in the scene. The viewer suddenly figures out that an uneasy feeling grabs him, due to the impossibility to clarify the meaning and the purpose of the scene presented. Then a sense of incongruity or detachment traps him.
The feeling of strangeness that sometimes I experience when I observe many of the scenes described in vintage photographs gets amplified enormously in this paintings by adding this edgy changes and manipulatios.
I try to destabilize, disarrange and alter the order of the elements that configure the structure of the scene in each painting, so the resulting image proposes a new visual order. Due to the alterations, changes and glitches inflicted, the traditional construction of a scene and its components, become dismantled. Then, a new reality (though surreal) overcomes.
In each of the works presented I draw on different procedures to build these visual paradoxes.
The methods vary, and the tricks and alterations inflicted depend on what the scene suggests in each case.
It could be inferred that there are some kafkaesque riddles that imbue these works, or even a more humorous condition that is in debt with films like Chaplinยดs Modern Times.

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Dr Plip on Oct 7, 2015 0:01:52 GMT 1, No. No one can.
More fake art came out of Dismaland than real art. People are just exploiting the naivety of others.
When the seller states this in the description:
"On Oct-02-15 at 17:56:24 PDT, seller added the following information:
Update : There is also one for sale by another seller on ebay uk for 25,000 UK Pounds so you can grab this one for much less!"
You have to ask yourself, if you knew you hadn't just sprayed this up yourself in your backyard, would you be happy to let yours sell for "just" $600, when the one in the UK is listed at ยฃ25,000?
How hard is to spray your own canvas and say "I purchased this in the gift shop/from a strange hooded guy outside Dismaland, I don't know if it's by Banksy or not, but I have been in touch with Pest Control and will share their reply and any information to the winning bidder. Grab yourself a bargain! Could be worth millions in a few years!!"
And if sprayed canvases had been on sale in the gift shop for even as little as 30 seconds, I would imagine the Banksy groupies would have mentioned it on here as soon as they could. We got tea towels, we got bears. Nobody on here has mentioned the bargain Banksy canvas they bought from Dismaland.

Just kidding. Bottom line, who knows? But I've seen so many dodgy stories about art found and purchased in and around Dismaland. Stencils are easy to cut and rubber stamps easy to have made. So unless someone has money to burn, I don't think it's worth risking it. Wouldn't want to see anyone left disappointed at the end of the day.
If people thought these were genuine, they wouldn't be selling them. If you were a big enough Banksy fan to have flown from the States to visit Dismaland and while you were there, you managed to buy an original canvas, would you put it on eBay as soon as possible? Or would you contact Pest Control and then moonwalk your way to the nearest auction house?

BANKSY "Dismaland" in Weston-super-Mare, by Black Apple Art on Oct 7, 2015 1:54:58 GMT 1, Aside from all the obvious screaming red flags, sirens and lasers here, it's easy to go by one rule: If it doesn't have a pest control COA then it is worth absolutely zero. Removed street pieces and some gift pieces aside, this rule will serve you well. Even the NY Central Park canvases all got PC COAs.

He certainly talked about it like it was the best thing he'd seen in ages, and seemed to be so happy telling everyone about it and answering every query about the release and artist (over several forum pages)... so strange now that he'd want to part with such a loved print so soon....

Early and strong bids, maybe to drive the price up in hopes of setting a precedent...?
