Thinking he is working a "look at me" moment is biased, thinking he is trying to promote his hotel shows a complete lack of awareness as to what Banksy is about. He is a world class artist operating at a level most don't understand.
What JR did was on another level.
Did you post there? Right...

I'm a JR fan, have big printouts of my son and me, met him at ballet. I think Banksy connects with the mainstream, JR tries to. I live in NYC he's been working this town with his publicist for years. Maybe it's the medium.

I saw your 2 posts on the JR thread, 1 briefly mentioned JR then ripped Banksy, the 2nd just ripped Banksy. So your postings in a thread (JR) you like were essentially worthless, much like here. Pick one - post on JR thread, say good things about JR instead of ripping Banksy, or post here, ripping Banksy but do it in an intelligent manner without praising JR.

New BANKSY stall, by rockbeer on Nov 3, 2018 6:05:12 GMT 1, Couldnโt help noticing in the event admissions policy that visitors โshould be dressed in suitable business wearโ.
I was quite up for going along for the curiosity - but not if it involves putting on a business suit. There are limits. Besides, I donโt have one.
Also noticed that you have to carry photo ID at all times and may be asked to produce it. Good luck to anyone registering in a joke name. That was my plan - Mr Rock Beer, Acting Consultant, Transformational Trips Unlimited - no way Iโm giving them my real name though. I imagine theyโll be policing any art chancers in trainers enthusiastically.
Canโt wait to hear how everyone gets on. Best of luck.

Bags on eBay within 30 mins of receiving lol
I'm planning a trip over there and have been for a while but haven't yet booked. Trying to work out the dates and with Brexshit happening in March were gonna go before that. Whatever he's up to tho its going to cause some hysteria no doubt.
I can imagine arriving at the hotel and seeing prints in the gift shop for collection from anyone that's purchased at this exhibition... and me not having a ticket or something hah, but I'm not getting on this one, can't afford to skip a day working for a mental journey to the big smoke just on the slimmest of chances of there being something special. But best of luck to anyone who does! I'll be keen to see what happened.

New BANKSY stall, by Deleted on Nov 3, 2018 12:39:44 GMT 1, Many travel companies from around the globe rely on this event as the most important driver of business to their country, region, town, village, property, event, cause, charity etc there are family business as well as large scale corporates present at this show. This includes tourism boards promoting impoverished countries and cities as well as huge focus on sustainable and eco tourism. The travel industry is one of the single biggest global employers too. I understand from a uneducated view travel may appear to be about profits and corporations but believe me itโs not for the vast majority. This is a great stunt and will be great awareness for Palestine...but hopefully it will not cause too much disruption to the paying exhibitors or attendance and be an interesting side show for those not familiar.. As I said I think its very likely it may get extinguished due to health and safety. I hope not as I want my free Palestine USB dongle. I accept all that. But we are not talking about trying to bring down travel companies, but rather raising awareness of the needs of Palestine. The needs of Palestine and the desires of travel companies are not mutually exclusive. I accept that I am uneducated in relation to the intricacies of travel companies and this trade fair, but my gut feeling is that if the by product of this is some disruption at the trade fair, that is a price worth paying for shining a spotlight on the needs of Palestine. Edit - I do hope that this doesnโt come across as stroppy. It isnโt intended to be. Itโs rather pleasant to have a grown up discussion on here. But will this Banksy stunt "raise awareness of the needs of Palestine"? I doubt it very much.

I can't see how it could possibly not do so.
If I was running a "come-to-Bulgaria-for-your-holidays" stall right next to the Palestinian one I would be very annoyed. I doubt if anyone will even be able to view the Bulgaria stall simply because of the crowds.

Thinking he is working a "look at me" moment is biased, thinking he is trying to promote his hotel shows a complete lack of awareness as to what Banksy is about. He is a world class artist operating at a level most don't understand. I'm sure he believes in supporting Palestine and the Palestinian people, but is this the right way to go about it?
What is his aim exactly? To increase the Palestinian GDP? To improve the lives of Palestinians? To highlight human rights abuses? I can't see this travel agency trade fair doing any of those things, can you?

But someone in the crowd might get bored after hours of not much happening and look at The Bulgaria stall or another stall and book a holiday somewhere else in the world. Enjoy the trade show.

I can only speak for myself ... but yes I went to Palestine for the Banksy Hotel .. however I came back a changed person .. the Palestinian situation is now a very important cause for me ... I raise a bit of money for palestininan charities and constantly seek out the latest news from the Middle East .. Yes I went for the Banksy Hotel .. and yes it's intent worked for me because it's opened my eyes to the apartheid that exists there...

New BANKSY stall, by slevin on Nov 3, 2018 13:51:33 GMT 1, I wonder how many people staying at the Walled Off Hotel take any great interest in Palestine or the Palestinian people. Let's face it; they go there because it's a Banksy hotel - and they can pick up some Banksy trinkets to take home. No other reason. It's hard to visit the hotel and not come back with a better understanding/interest re. the Palestinian situation.
The trip had a huge impact on me personally.

New BANKSY stall, by Rouen Cathedral on Nov 3, 2018 13:52:15 GMT 1, Here's the real question. Does anyone care even when banksy is involved? Or is it just one of those things they talk about saying they care then get their babksys trinket to hang in their wall? Everyone takes notice when Banksy is involved no matter what the cause,ย so the real answer is YES
That's the problem. They take notice of banksy first and foremost.
The 'cause' always seems second.
To be honest I'm not sure it's fault or a criticism to banksy....
