Art Wanted, by JockoLad on May 29, 2020 0:02:22 GMT 1, Under £10k has well and truly gone.... I did call it ! that just seems to have gone from 4K to 14k in a flash! This B market is a bit insane.
Flags has always been massively undervalued. Given the foil paper it is printed on many must have been damaged beyond repair, reducing the edition size considerably.
My friend bought my print for me from Santa’s Ghetto at my request. Rocked up, bought one (for £100) and still regrets not buying one for himself to this day. If I remember correctly, all proceeds were donated to a charity that worked upon improving the sight of children living in poverty throughout the world.
It’s an acquired taste, certainly, but it is unique in terms of composition/colour way.
Good luck getting your hands on one, I’m sure you’ll find a willing seller sooner rather than later at these prices.

I still know guys who have them in the original tubes which will be a mess so I reckon the actual good ones that are out there are very limited. How did he manage to buy 40 when people queued overnight and the edition sold out in a couple of hours?
Despite the initial queues it was an edition of 1000 so plenty were left over. When my friend arrived it was at the point that the ‘collectors‘ had been and gone (2006 so the Banksy market was still growing/developing) so the remaining prints were being punted in multiples. It did sell out quickly but not like it would have 10 years down the line.
Following this release, I’m fairly certain the next in-person print drop was Choose Your Weapon which led to Banksy deciding that enough was enough. The cat was out of the bag and buying a Banksy would never be the same again.
Them were the days.

The next in-person release was for the grey No Ball Games in December 2009, which by all accounts passed without incident. The chaos of Choose Your Weapon came in 2010 and it was a s**t show - queues around the block in Soho with no confirmation of a print release, followed by a mad dash to Commercial Street at about 10pm before it got really ugly. The original thread for that is still here somewhere if you have an hour spare and want to relive the madness....

So picasso never popped... Air was let out and then refilled, and let out again. The thing about banksy is pest control and more new works coming out

The thing about banksy is pest control and more new works coming out Are we comparing Banksy to Picasso now??!? Really? Don't get me wrong - its well within my interest for the market to keep rising too! But come on, people on here talk about Banksy like its a done deal - too the moon, nothing can go wrong, safe investment etc I can remember a broker telling me the same thing about RBS shares. Tread carefully.
Yes, i am comparing him to picasso. Lots of multiples, very much the people's artist, works recognized worldwide. Go to central africa or backwoods south america and show art images from the past 20 years. The only 2 globally recognized images are gwrb and Shep's hope After over a decade and there is no loss of steam, we can start that comparison.

It has been like this for the last 12 years , each year a gamble to sell or not ? With the way things are now prices may drop a few % by the year end so could sell now and buy again at the end of the year and still have a few k from the original sale spare , who knows?

Art Wanted, by Dive Jedi on May 29, 2020 15:37:33 GMT 1, Think that is true for many artists...
I've sold plenty of Martin Whatson and Snik pieces that are worth much more now. But I also used that money to buy other art that is also worth more.
That's all part of the art game. And it's also good for artists - it makes it easier for buyers to buy new pieces.
Talked to guy recently that bought a signed GWB for 3K. I'm sure the seller is kicking himself now. But at the time it was a good deal. And maybe he used the money to buy a GWB canvas for 50K....
In the end you can only look at what's a good deal at the time that you make. Otherwise you go crazy.

I know that when I bought Barcode on release it was £100. Signed editions were £150. How badly I kick myself for not buying more Banksy works at the time (or at least a signed edition) but I was a student with very limited wall space and even more limited disposable funds! Besides...that way madness lies.
Really like your point DiveJedi!

Posting in the appropriate place. However it’s not art, it’s a book, and not urban, but pop art.
I’m looking for a copy of the Greg Guilleman book - Secret Life of Heroes .
Please let me know on the off-chance if you have one for sale. I’m in the UK for posting.
