Art Wanted, by Lroy on Jul 14, 2017 9:40:04 GMT 1, There is a real question around the purpose of art/print - if they are identical but one is โฌ50k and the other is โฌ70 then are you buying the art or the potential value. I've a few valuable prints but my STIK book poster/print is one of my favs - would I spend โฌ6k to have the same image wthout folds - nope. Sorry to be a geek here but i own both and the quality is completely different regarding the stiks if you are a collector of quality then you would go for the screen printed version.
Stik has the best printing quality ! It's fantastic ( paper, colors, texture, and s kind of brilliance )

"High quality reproduction Banksy prints. Exact copies of Banksy's original iconic early works."
'exact copies' my arse.

It's not about Banksy, it's about the principle of supporting the artists, not people making money off the back of other people's work.
Do you think Banksy actively supports WCP, or tolerates it because it would be hard to prosecute?

Off course not.....
I have "Banksy replica's" in the kids quarters....in the Orangery.....around the indoor swimming pools....the banqueting suite....the main hall....and even around the external tennis courts....
My point being that these images are for all and I think that, that is how Banksy wants it!

People there thought the canvases were fake, but they still bought them coz they loved the image and were not worried if they were genuine or not. So the gift to those people was to later find out they were actually the real thing. The whole thing wasn't about selling art to people who are only worried about the Banksy brand and it's value, it was about giving only to the people who love the images. Do you think that stunt by Banksy decreased sales of fake Banksy canvases?

Banksy was choosing to present *his own* artwork as fake as some kind of experiment / stunt / statement / whatever.
WCP is deliberately recreating Banksy images as closely as possible in order to profit. He isn't re-interpreting the images, or using Banksy images as the basis for new work.

If you read back a few pages, he tried to defend it by saying Banksy doesn't care if people profit from his work. That was quickly disproved with quotes from Banksy's website.
He then tried to argue that Banksy steals other artists' work. By now he should understand the concept of fair use under copyright law.
Now he's flailing about with random excuses, none of which make any sense.
I think the bottom line is he's okay with making a dishonest buck. Not sure why he doesn't just own up to it and be done with it.

That's great. But it's also not the discussion that was being had at that moment by silk.
