But to then produce more and sell them on as maybe a Banksy is somewhat kak, I suppose it does highlight the point that people are buying into a brand regardless of the quality and that is what Banksy has now become. If you are thrust into the limelite there is nothing you can do to avoid it however clever you may be. Just needs to get that name copyrighted now.

Why not go to ebay, there's loads of stuff there that has the Banksy tag on them, some quite clearly state they're not actually genuine Banksy's and they're pretty cheap, at least that way you get something that looks like a Banksy.

I think you'll find The Aquarium have a different approach to other galleries who might care about that sort of thing.
ie. they couldn't give a shit.
Considering who they represent (their whole ethos, history, where they came from and what they represent) and their clientele, this type of statement strongly enforces their credibility in my eyes.

'Banksy Collection' by STOT21stCplanB, by michaelscott on Aug 18, 2007 23:30:49 GMT 1, I can't believe these have sold out! Just goes to show doesn't it. People buying because 'they might actually be by the man' wake up and smell the roses! surprisingly, some people (like me) actually like STOT21 (some of the work anyway). At worst, it's "different". if anyone bought one of these thinking it's a Banksy, you are a total mug, especially since they are 35 quid. I'm quite a lover of the piss take genre/smart work in general.
I 'm also a supporter/fan of the " piss take genre/smart work", and I think Banksy , obviously is.
I bought one, and I'm still laughing about it, as they take my money to the bank.

"You're probably thinking we're stretching the joke a bit thin now... which we are."
"You might also be wondering how many more of these we will do."
"The answer is... We'll keep making them as long as you keep buying them."
probably best if no one buys any more then...

'Banksy Collection' by STOT21stCplanB, by fautebol on Aug 19, 2007 13:56:09 GMT 1, Good to see they are going back with the real deal: the bunnies 
Still, I would have liked to see a minimalist "without bunny no carrot" or/and "without carrot no bunny" ;D Impatient to see the future ones.
But, with the mention "We'll keep making them as long as you keep buying them", people might, quite irrationally, stop buying them

There we go.  Soon on ebay.
Considering that Banksy hasn't released anything in a while - those gives us at least something to talk about.
Does anyone know what Banksy is waiting for?
Is he spending his money in the Caribbean, saving the rain forest?
Waiting out his contract with POW/LAZ to go somewhere else?
Any ideas?

He already did that, it was called 'Toxic Mary'. There's a reason that took ages to sell from POW:
It's shit! I regretted not "snapping one up", then slapped myself in the face for even thinking that, because if I had I would have been the worst kind of flipper - buying an artwork I actually thought was shit, just to make a few (thousand) bob.

I used to think it was ugly and that I wouldn't want it in my house, POW's description used to be 'and no one, absolutely no one wants to buy it'!! however when I saw it framed in the old Tom Tom shop I changed my mind about it.
