LONDON (Reuters) - Anonymous graffiti artist Banksy, who enjoys a cult following around the world, has returned to his home town of Bristol in western England to launch his biggest exhibition to date. Typically for a man who keeps his identity secret, the whole project has been shrouded in mystery, with media, local councilors and even staff at the museum only finding out about the project on Friday, the day before it was due to open."

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by wiz on Jun 13, 2009 8:30:08 GMT 1, I predict yes, but not this one, no point going really as have seen all the works on here.

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by buffin on Jun 13, 2009 8:36:20 GMT 1, Great night. Lots of highlights so go check it out for yourself. Love the studio and great to see the initial little sketches of some pieces. Lots of laugh out loud moments.
The 'no ball games' appears to be the one that was in Dreweatts auction but with the tv painted out and replaced with with a sign.

Banksy Bristol City Museum Show, by Happy Shopper on Jun 13, 2009 9:06:42 GMT 1, So did anybody here manage to buy anything? I'd imagine Banksy sketches for £500 - £2500 wouldn't have stuck around long. (To be honest, I'm not sure I even believe it! Doesn't look like that sort of show)

Thank you to Pest Control for a great day yesterday. I really enjoyed the upper floors last night if you go there make sure you take your time and have a good look around there are so many hidden little gems.

Go mate. Guarantee its worth the trip but perhaps wait until the initial rush has died down a little. I stood and looked at the studio for a good 20 minutes and even then I'm sure I missed some of the things. Even the labels on the drawers of the filing cabinet are funny.
Not sure that photos of the monkey parliament do it justice either.

proffesser • Mr Brainwash in Nottingham on Wednesday 4th December 6-8pm.. a tad too early for me but might appeal to some more local clarendonfineart.com/collections/come-and-meet-mr-brainwash
rparducci • That's a good idea ,have you got any pictures of what exactly you meant? Was thinking of maybe ornate in red too? What are your thoughts
Daniel Silk • The number or Boards and Threads continues to fall as we simplify the layout of the forum.
Daniel Silk • I hear a lot of Artists complaining about Instagram in the past year, how it used to be a good tool for Artists, but it's not good anymore, is that true?
anyaart • For Brett Kern fans, I noticed there is a spinosaurus for sale on E-Bay. It's a limited edition, one of only 60 made. This is the rarest of his dinosaurs. I am not the seller. I already have the same dino purchased in 2016. I've never seen one up for sale
Daniel Silk • Apology • Sorry I have been offline this past few weeks, due to a very bad Fever. I'm slowly getting better, step by step, and catching up with things here on the forum on the days I'm well enough. Thank you for your understanding.
Boy Wonder • I read that they were more or less nicked the same day they went up. Loads of fakes exist.
milou2 • Would love to see any photos of Banksy's first exhibition at the Severnshed in Bristol (2000). Who was there?*
jirr • Hi all, over here in the states. Pandemic put me out of business, need to sell this asap. Please send offers thanks so much
matgab • Steven Harrington - Gotcha first ed for sale.
1nkling • I can't help but think that a more reasonable tier for people who just want to support the work you guys do would raise more income. Then other tiers for those that want specialist benefits.
1nkling • As soon as I saw the heading for the email I thought 'Oh yeah, I use that place a lot. I'd happily support it'. Not at £40 a month though. I have a paid sub for a Formula 1 site I use that is very active. They have a high uptake on subs at £12 a year.
1nkling • Pricing on the new supporters sub seems a bit poorly thought out. £40 a month to have a pinned sale thread being the only listed benefit?
Daniel Silk • The forum now has more than half the number of Boards than it had a year ago! As we work towards simplifying the layout.
Was great to see everyone going round with big grins on their faces ;D 
still; should be worth the wait.
