Banksy Paddington Bear poster, by rockbeer on Oct 4, 2020 11:26:16 GMT 1, I stumbled across this:
stopwatchgallery.com/product/paddington-bear-banksy/
Leaving aside questions over the credibility or otherwise of the gallery (the item is sold out so there would seem to be little to gain from goung down that rabbit hole), does anyone know anything about this supposed Valentineโs Day poster giveaway at the Migration Museum?
I know itโs an old image that appeared on a wall in Glastonbury, was attributed to Banksy, and was apparently painted over in error in 2009, but I donโt believe Iโve ever seen any reference to either the Museum giveaway or the poster itself on the forum. It certainly never gets talked about in discussions of Banksy posters.
Can anyone shed any light?

Yawn

Banksy Paddington Bear poster, by avec art on Oct 4, 2020 12:20:03 GMT 1, as a stencil art this is pretty well done, and I've seen it sprayed on walls etc, but I don't believe the work is by Banksy

Completely disagree. Itโs awful, really badly executed.
Donโt disagree on it not being by Banksy tho.

Banksy Paddington Bear poster, by avec art on Oct 4, 2020 13:39:28 GMT 1, I think conceptually it's strong. That particular execution of it in the poster not so great, but I've seen it sprayed under bridges and in phone booths where they are quite eye catching. I'm not surprised some people have tried to attribute it to Banksy esp. as money is involved, however I don't think that was the initial purpose of the piece.

I disagree again. Conceptually itโs very weak in my opinion, thereโs very little thought gone into it.
The message is strong tho, so thatโs a plus.

It would be pretty weak without Paddington |

I donโt agree, the message is the message. The utilisation of Paddington in the image doesnโt add anything for me. But just my opinion, and in no way am I trying to convince you to change your mind, nor to confuse, was just my opinion.
