BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by cosmic on Oct 4, 2019 17:41:34 GMT 1, GDP was my second Banksy-related outing of the week, following a visit to Sotheby's to see Devolved Parliament before it got sold off. The difference in demographics between Croydon and Mayfair isn't surprising but is nevertheless astonishing. I was hoping that Banksy might have dragged some of the Mayfair/Frieze set down to Croydon, but while I was there I didn't see anyone wearing a sufficiently expensive coat. A couple of other observations: I hadn't realised the wallpaper at GDP is handpainted. Banksy seems to like painting flock wallpaper, or getting other people to. Maybe that's how he punishes any misbehaving minions. Also, and apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but in addition to the lights being turned out there's a banana in Monkey Parliament that has been turned upside down at some point. At Sotheby's I heard someone official-looking say that DP was "believed" to be being sold by Banksy himself, and given the changes that have been made to it, the timing of its sale and the loan to Bristol museum, I'd be very surprised if that wasn't the case, whatever he says on Instagram.

No way he did it by himself. He's a clever artist but I don't think he's talented enough to paint something like that.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by biglebowski on Oct 4, 2019 18:37:30 GMT 1, I often wonder if there would be a more irritating artist to have a pint with than Banksy...imagine the conversations, all would end up with some pessimistic defeatist view about society and mankind. Makes cool art though

There were some photos floating around on this forum of the guy who actually made the Lady Justice statue.
I also wonder about the grappling hooks sometimes. In the BBC Alternativity documentary it talks about how the family of the manager of the Walled Off Hotel has been in the wood working business for years. It then shows all the little trinkets they made. I always wondered if they're the ones who made the grappling hooks.

Im sure he can paint though if you look at some of the oils.
sometimes you need other experts to execute your idea. You would not dream of a grand designs house and then attempt to build it all yourself

Loads of the actual work is done and has always been done by students (or team nowadays). |
