Is Morons Now Banksy's Iconic Image, by stillborncrisps on Oct 16, 2008 10:01:37 GMT 1, Nice one guys, yeh rats for me too, a few of us are thinking of buying the building in Liverpool that is up for sale as a development opportunity with the giant rat/cat on it to save it from being knocked down.
Would probably be cheaper than buying a canvas. ;-)

Is Morons Now Banksy's Iconic Image, by spirit on Oct 16, 2008 11:24:07 GMT 1, I think, in the long run, Morons may well become Banksy's most iconic and sought after image - simply because it makes a direct statement about the art market and those who play in it. This will give a direct connection to the piece for the collectors of the future - it will be relevant to them - even if they have no interest in street art generally.

This may sound like the lamest question, but what is the tag actually meant to say in the Gangster Rat one?
I've never been able to work it out.

Morons is great though - appeals to non-banksy fans as well.

I've always thought that I only needed one placard rat but now I've seen them all together I've changed my mind.
Still want a Love Rat though

Morons for newer fans and people who don't know Banksy.
But I think Rats is slightly ahead considering Banksy even named his company... Pest control.

Morons also appeals as it's a sketch rather than a stencil

It's a nice concept but the image is just so crudely executed - would much rather have a Hutch there instead!

Hey Mojo, the HMV looks great - it's that terrible Scarface canvas you need to get rid of

I also like Turf War but it's not iconic.
