Banksy Welcome Mat, by Prescription Art on Oct 22, 2019 18:40:04 GMT 1, If the next "round" happens, and is different, or a basic mat instead of the vest material and buckles etc, or is $1k How many people are buying? Truthfully of it wasnโt by banksy or his creative team who would have paid ยฃ500 . Personally and Iโm honest I wouldnโt
That's a nonsense argument saying that you wouldn't pay ยฃ500 if it wasn't by Banksy. Whoever bought Salvator Mundi wouldn't have paid hundreds of millions of dollars if it wasn't (attributed to) Leonardo.

What has that got to do with anything?
Apart from the fact i'm not allowed to have an opinion about anything on here any more.....

IMO I think it's a very strong piece of art regardless of who did it... the fact it's by Banksy makes ยฃ500 an absolute bargain...

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Rubberneck on Oct 22, 2019 19:22:15 GMT 1, Sadly we canโt guarantee a mat for everyone on the list as demand is so high, but we will at least be able to inform you first. Does this not suggest there is a limit to the unlimited mat? A question for anyone who ordered the mat through the Lw link on the gdp site. that means not everyone on the waitlist will get one from the 2nd batch and will continue to wait..

To help lives and not a product - why werenโt they sold for ยฃ2.5k or more then How many times has Banksy publicly sold work for that price? Public release prices are always low. Why is nothing in the GDP store over ยฃ750?
What is the specific difference between art and product?

Agreed. There is always an element of beauty when something positive is created from such dire circumstances. Many people would see that as artistic in itself and why, I would assume, some artists want to get involved with causes such as Love Welcomes and Article 22 etc. I genuinely believe that they lend their support, not just to help raise the profile, but because they see it as an artistic collaboration.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by nobokov on Oct 22, 2019 22:00:16 GMT 1, How many of the doormats will be used a doormat? Anyone here intending on doing this? I couldn't possibly leave it outside in case a random thief regularly reads Artnet or Hypebeast and recognizes the mat and if I put it on the inside of the door, I'm afraid that the straps will get caught upon opening. Not sure what to do with it really.

I'm cutting a 1 inch recess into the floor of my entrance, then placing it in there. I will then cover to floor level with a piece of toughened glass. So it will be the perfect spot, without getting dirty๐
