POW theory, by anthoz on Feb 29, 2008 16:53:04 GMT 1, ok so we all love a good conspiracy theory
and of course im uber bored on a Friday avo at work so here goes.
After looking at POW i noticed from the archived pages that this time last year they updated the site twice in February and once in the first week of March
as we havent had anything since the re-launch a few weeks ago where does this leave things?
If say for example there is no news out of POW next week what does this mean in light of the Banksy/Laz gossip etc?
this time last year there would have been 1 update from POW and another on the way.
perhaps nothing and im wasting everyones day, but it beats all that watercooler chat that you blatantly cant be bothered with on a Friday afternoon.
;D

POW theory, by BONGO on Feb 29, 2008 17:19:04 GMT 1, BONGO ASKS WHETHER THE BRACE OF REMAINING LA PRINTS MAY INDEED BE THE FINAL POW ISSUED BANKSY.
SHOULD THIS BE THE CASE, THEN THERE IS NO BENEFIT ON POW RUSHING TO GET ANYTHING PRINTED OR LOADED ONTO THE WEBSITE,AS THEY HAVE EFFECTIVELY, A CAPTIVE AUDIENCE, FUELLED BY RUMOUR AND HYPE - MORE BAD PRINTS ARE LIKELY TO BE SOLD IF BANKSY PRINTS ARE ON HOLD
THE LENGTH OF TIME SUCH AN AUDIENCE CAN BE KEPT ON HOLD IS ANOTHER MATTER OF DEBATE OF COURSE

Good point BONGO. Personally my patience is worn thin and I'm looking for new pieces that I can take my time over deciding if I like them. However I think they will have plenty of people jumping onboard to replace those that walk the plank.

POW theory, by felix on Feb 29, 2008 17:31:46 GMT 1, I think we will see many more releases for charitable causes like 'stop and search' , I don't see why if Banksy has an audience and can donate to these causes, it will stop. One thing for sure, we will not see any more one off's or canvases through POW ;D

POW theory, by sm on Feb 29, 2008 19:37:56 GMT 1, maybe it's Paul Insect leaving Laz/Pow and jumping into bed with Hirst, not Banksy. All sold out prints have been removed from the site. I don't believe this is to make way for new stock. Why remove pages of sold out prints as surly this encourages people to buy as they see the work as being popular. Everyone knows Hirst loves Paul and the removal of the sold out stock doesn't add up.
that's my conspiracy theory and I'm sticking to it.

i know something is going on with insect

POW theory, by slowmo on Feb 29, 2008 19:51:22 GMT 1, Being well and truly out the loop, the only thing I could add to this, is the recent LOVE print sold on the Eine site was sent out in a POW tube, with the postage stamp, paper etc. So it must have been a very recent split if true?

POW theory, by buffin on Feb 29, 2008 21:03:14 GMT 1, The Bast Mickeys came back from the USA a week or so ago and needed an extra layer of black applied. This was not done in house as "their printer had left unexpectedly".

POW theory, by Rude Copper on Feb 29, 2008 22:04:30 GMT 1, there were 100 of each unsigned print sold in la, the edition overall is 150 signed,& 500 unsigned, excluding the colour variants.
there was a set of six signed printers proofs also, anyone care to spoof a guess as to how much they're worth nowadays?

Maybe this is the reason of the split - busted using the company franking machine!!

A set of the printers proofs went for $16-25k for each print back in May 2007. They'd be going for silly money now.

While the Bast mickeys were being sold, Eine was in hospital. Thats why he had left unexpectedly, its also why he done the love print
