BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by The Silence on Oct 7, 2019 0:52:18 GMT 1, Definitely worth a visit if you’re not too far away. Although I’m amazed people queue up just to walk past the windows! Oh wait, that’s exactly what we did. Ha. Met nice people and bumped into familiar faces from here. Nice day out. In Croydon — who knew?

But Devolved Parliament is the work of Banksy, and the sale, it seems to me, is a joke in a number of ways. Much of the joke, for a start, is on whichever member of the beau monde spent £9.9 million on the painting at Sotheby’s. The work isn’t new – it’s a decade old – though the artist has tweaked it a little of late. The lights in the chamber, for instance,...

Can you paste the article contents here? Parliament, you may have heard, isn’t currently held in high repute. It might, therefore, seem apt that the art sale in the headlines this week – during Frieze London, too – wasn’t an abstract expressionist work, or a sculpture in stainless steel, but a 14ft figurative painting of the House of Commons in which the MPs are all chimpanzees.

It might, therefore, seem apt that the art sale in the headlines this week – during Frieze London, too – wasn’t an abstract expressionist work, or a sculpture in stainless steel, but a 14ft figurative painting of the House of Commons in which the MPs are all chimpanzees.
But Devolved Parliament is the work of Banksy, and the sale, it seems to me, is a joke in a number of ways. Much of the joke, for a start, is on whichever member of the beau monde spent £9.9 million on the painting at Sotheby’s. The work isn’t new – it’s a decade old – though the artist has tweaked it a little of late. The lights in the chamber, for instance, are dimmer; a banana is now upside-down. “It’s just so topical,” the dealer Acoris Andipa sighed to The New York Times.
Some of the joke may be on Banksy himself. The sale beat his record auction price (£1.5 million) and the painting’s guide price (£1.5-2 million), but he didn’t own Devolved Parliament and won’t have earned royalties.
The rest of the joke is on a public who thinks Banksy a renegade, not a hack. The artist is understood to be anti-establishment in a vaguely sixth-form way – his biographer, Will Ellsworth-Jones, told me that he has “a sort of Guardian politics” – but his work is, on the contrary, as supercilious as art can be. He treats you like a fool: here is my work, swallow my message. Witness his mural in Venice this year: a refugee girl holding a flare in bubblegum pink. The saccharine colour and the likeness to the Statue of Liberty are satire for tiny tots. The only thing at Sotheby’s that wasn’t a joke, therefore, was Devolved Parliament itself. (Except the title, I suppose, though if ever a pun bore out Freud’s riff about “the lowest form of wit”, it’s that one.)
The point is to solve the message, and as ever with Banksy, the subtlety is pegged to how much the artist thinks you can understand. In brief: MPs are unedifying fools, like chimps.

This isn’t anti-establishment at all. The point of satire is to extract the hidden faults of a person or thing, in order to show how their behaviour could be transformed. If the audience looks or listens carefully, they’ll find vestiges of their own behaviour echoed back. This can amount to a political purpose, if it’s done incisively.
But Devolved Parliament has nothing to say about how British politics fell so low, or in what way, or how it might be redeemed, or why any of this matters, or how. An individual chimp cannot evolve. You can only point and snigger. This is £9.9 million of nihilism in paint.
And, whatever the subject at hand, that’s the only move Banksy has. Another example: an Extinction Rebellion-themed mural, created one night in April, depicts a child who holds an XR sign and tends a small green shoot. She represents innocence, because she could represent nothing else. The effect, here as elsewhere, depends on the use of children: creatures who need protection from bad people and suffer projection by the good.
Banksy’s art is coercive, and its politics are trash, because its modus operandi is to make you ignore the complexities of things. Few critics care about his work, beyond a horror that he represents contemporary art in the public eye. But his “subversive” gestures only win him more headlines, only thrill his audience more. When his print Girl with Balloon was sold for £1.04 million at Sotheby’s last year, he shredded it live, to gasps and coos. Just watch: next time it’s auctioned, retitled “Love is in the Bin”, the price will be higher than that.
ADVERTISING
When it pays to be the licensed jester, why would he quit the role? A clear, distinctive identity suits nothing so much as a brand. With Devolved Parliament, according to Sotheby’s, Banksy “distils society’s most complicated political situations into just one deceptively simple image”.
There’s nothing “deceptive” about it. He didn’t ring the tills on this occasion, but the sale drives up the value of the works, such as prints, that he does directly sell. Banksy, at heart, is a grifter. In that sense, his talent is clear.

I mean this is true.
I guess it comes down to whether you think the individual behind it and the process in the conception on the work is more then the viewer sees in the final product.
I would say some of his work can seem very ignorant of a complex “thing”, but I would say other things seem very well thought through.

If there is anything worse than superficial artists, it is deep art critics.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by sgolby on Oct 7, 2019 3:18:31 GMT 1, Agreed, further, when taking each work as a singularity on its own, it is easy to find it simple minded and shallow. However when examining the body of his work what you discover is a narrative that is not shallow, but rather a story arch that encompasses both art and activism. The author is looking at Banksy through a simple artistic lens, when reality is, Banksy is in many ways an idea. For this reason i believe it is important that his identity remain hidden. As an idea he can be both cause and effect, artist and activist. Now i am rambling...

also would make a fair profit if the remaining v2 sales ends are sold at market value as some people previously discussed and think the whole edition of 500 was not released?!

Did anyone email and just straight up ask how things would be sold?
Also someone mentioned a few pages back about asking if shipping outside the uk would be an option, any response ok that one?

Well I have no idea what makes you think “of course” they would ship outside the uk, but fair enough.
And I’ll take the second part as no you haven’t asked and therefore don’t know what kind of response would have been received, but assume there answer would be “not telling you”
Most people seemed to assume that emailing them asking when they would open would not receive a response or get blacklisted or something, but it turns out there response was a fairly simple and boring 1-2 weeks so.

How the telegraph can say anyone else’s politics is trash after it’s transformed itself into a brexiter mouthpiece is beyond me.

As someone who has just reached my early 30’s (and not from the UK-Live in Aus) I’m now in a position in life to hopefully acquire a piece of “his” after being interested for some time, it’s only recently (year or so) that I’ve been serious in getting something and this may turn out to be a great opportunity (I can hope) so just trying to get as much info as I can (-;”
Trust me living in Australia there are no guarantees that anything ships here (haha!)

I personally had a response to my email, The only question I thought to ask at the time was “when opening” I received the reply within half an hour of the site update.
It stated “Online ship will be open in a week or two, Thanks”
Also where on Instagram did it say that? That Cleary passed me by!

This is an interesting point I think about Pest Control sales.

Or are they selling prints that have been kept back for the previously said ‘ultimate vault sale’? The same thing Graffiti Prints gets a lot of stick for.

I honestly think they have the best intentions, as they’ve been helpful to me me previously. I just think there are a few unscrupulous people out there and they’re cutting out the middle man for the greater good. End of the day when a deal goes wrong they still have to get involved one way or another with ownership, etc.

BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by shopkeeper on Oct 7, 2019 9:21:16 GMT 1, When was the Rat posters given out ?
From Wednesday onwards. On Tuesday it was ‘crisis as usual’ posters which then saw the exhibit display change to the same colours the following day.
Rat posters are now only being handed out to kids by staff. This follows lots of people showing up for a print and some being not to subtle about their intentions for visiting, asking about prints whilst ignoring the actual exhibit.

if you stand in front of the shop for 15 minutes waving your arms up and down they will let you in!

+1 - It would stop the glare but I guess it may be hard to keep clean with all the people drooling at the stock.
Luckily was nearby on Thursday so dropped by mid afternoon - some great bits to look at and also it was surprisingly quiet so was easy to wander up and down the windows. Not so easy to get any decent photos due to the reflection so I can understand for those who get a chance to view at night it would definitely look better.
Other highlights were nearly being hit by a tram and the excellent looking Croyden Pie and Mash shop just round the corner in Frith street - if I hadn't been on my todd I would have checked it out as it looked the business.
