Gonefellow ๐ฌ๐ง Print Release โข Street Art โข Art For Sale, by Happy Shopper on Dec 8, 2016 11:49:15 GMT 1, It's funny, but I don't appreciate all the "hinting" that this might be Banksy... it all feels a bit Outis.
And what's the relationship with Gonefellow, Wiz/Lonelyfarmer and Fragile? Anyone know? The 3 instagram accounts hash tagging each other and liking posts... and the rude farmer image obviously!

Gonefellow ๐ฌ๐ง Print Release โข Street Art โข Art For Sale, by ryanoh1 on Dec 8, 2016 12:25:11 GMT 1, None of these prints were resold on the secondary market from what I can see - surely that has to be a big fat positive?!
Whether it's cool or not to tweak other people's work, those who have bought these prints are keeping hold of them and you certainly don't see that with maby prints nowadays.

Probably in the misguided hope that it turns out to be Banksy... then we'd see a few for sale!

Surely work appearing straight on secondary is driven to by excess demand and flippers seeing a quick buck. Suspect neither of those really true with this artist yet. Who would pay double for a gonefellow print a week after release??

He wouldn't be... but when anonymous artists do a close Banksy style, and galleries selling them say "We don't know who this artist is...", it feeds the speculative buying we see with Gonefellow and Outis.

But you can't make a career on tweaking other people's concepts. At least not a career that anyone will remember long term...
Nothing wrong with parody in my book. I don't mind collage art where images are cut up to create something new.
Or parody art where the artist creates an original drawing or painting to parody another artist which artists have done for generations.
regarding this image though it looks like a photoshop manipulation of the Banksy meat truck.
I would be curious to see if an original drawing exists for this limited edition.
Who knows if Gone Fellow is Banky or Bansy is Gone Fella.
Or if Gonefella actually did the original Bankit meat truck artwork as part of team Banking Cartel stable of assistants and artists.
I can't really see Andy treading on anyones toes.

Graffiti Prints just did a better job with the false hype... to the point people were willing to buy secondary.

Just a heads up your new "thing" of varied misspellings of "Banksy" is a bit trite and banal. Might want to lose that tic.

Yes. The meat truck was also posted on here a couple of years ago and members liked it, which is why I presume he or Andy decided to make a print. All seems fair enough, the ones that liked it, bought it. I don't think this is anything like the 'outis' fiasco.
Edit- sorry, just read your previous post and I sound like a fuckin parrot
Just to add, the Banksy thing was also started here with members suggesting/joking Gonefellow could be Banksy. So Andy has just played along with it,with no intention of misleading.

If you read Andy's posts from when he released the print, he clearly explained that the parody was a satirical comment on the company which had been removing famous street art. |

Sure. But then he made rude farmer rip off of rude copper. And I'm wrong in saying his boxhead is also another Banksy play? (Honestly asking, because I'm not sure.) In any case, it's one after another after another.
And anyone who thinks it's not easy, play this game and see for yourself:
1. choose any banksy image
2. change one thing about the image (if it's CYW, change what's on the end of the leash. Or who's holding the leash. Or add another leash to the hooded character. Or GWB, change what's on the end of the balloon string. CWSB, what else can you put in christ's hands? You can literally do it all day.)
3. Photoshop it.
4. ??!!?
5. Profit.
I was responding directly to the above comment where he said andy was playing along. In any case, I'd think someone like Andy, who is a gallery owner, wouldn't willfully perpetuate the worst part of the urban art world, i.e. the "me too" print parodies and the surrounding bullshit "is he / isn't he" a famous artist. Those two tropes happens over and over, and people fall for it over and over. But it cheapens the entire movement IMO, and the fact that GF was a member here doesn't change my opinion. Gotcha, I don't agree but that's what a discussion board is about, discussion. That said, I don't think Andy or Gonefellow were trying to make a print that fed off the "me too" thing. If you read Andy's posts from when he released the print, he clearly explained that the parody was a satirical comment on the company which had been removing famous street art. Sure. But then he made rude farmer rip off of rude copper. And I'm wrong in saying his boxhead is also another Banksy play? (Honestly asking, because I'm not sure.) In any case, it's one after another after another. And anyone who thinks it's not easy, play this game and see for yourself: 1. choose any banksy image 2. change one thing about the image (if it's CYW, change what's on the end of the leash. Or who's holding the leash. Or add another leash to the hooded character. Or GWB, change what's on the end of the balloon string. CWSB, what else can you put in christ's hands? You can literally do it all day.) 3. Photoshop it. 4. ??!!? 5. Profit. |

A maverick.
A, how you say in French, le pillock.
Edit: Besides, from a marketing point of view, Dr Plip is one of the sh*ttest names ever. I'd have more chance of selling stuff under the name Dr Harold Shipman.
Edit again: Anyway, this thread is about all things Gonefellow and not my own artistic brilliance.
