Heavy Weaponry @ Sotheby’s Day Auction , by lv90210 on Oct 19, 2020 13:09:23 GMT 1, I don’t know anything so don’t listen to me, but I have seen it... ...and I think it’s small, boring, unimpressive, unartistic, and the play on words only works on one level. If this was a Mrs Banksy original, I think we all know how it would be received. What you mean he (mrs Banksy) hasn't ripped this one off yet? Small, boring, unimpressive, unartistic and a play on a more successful artists work just about sums up mrs Banksy, et al. Thing is once an artist such as Banksy, with 25years worth of successful shows and projects behind them has a rare fully authenticated canvas available at a high end reputable auction house demand is high not because somebody particularly wants a painting of an elephant with a bomb attached but because they are buying into the artists ethos and by doing so they become a custodian of a little piece of art history. It's quite likely it will go into a vault and either be passed down through the buyers family or auctioned again at a later date to upgrade/reinvest in other works by the same artist. Sort of like what happens on here with Peckham Rock beermats only on a much larger scale.
