I think they are all good images, but when peoples art collections grow bigger than the available wall space  they start to ask more questions of the work.

Banksy, unfashionable?, by killerkellah on Mar 28, 2008 20:20:20 GMT 1, is this is a sexy way of saying which is the worst Banksy print?
Id same Monkey Queen and for me Morons. It looked stunning as a canvas at the LA show, but I didnt think it translated as well as a print.

Banksy, unfashionable?, by killerkellah on Mar 28, 2008 20:45:25 GMT 1, if I had one Id probably think differently and it would take pride of place in the flat!!
this leads me to another topic, slightly controversial....
have we seen the best of Banksy, i love his stuff circa 2002/03 ie Happy Choppers, Flying Coppers, Rats etc...
His latest prints doesnt get me as excited, though I think his street stuff goes from strength to strength.

Banksy, unfashionable?, by doublehelix on Mar 28, 2008 21:04:13 GMT 1, I love both my I fought the law and Mary prints. I wasn't a huge fan of I fought the law in repro, but once I saw one in the flesh I changed my opinion. It's huge, looks amazing on the wall and I love the sentiment of the piece. If framed well the Mary print looks great, there time will come - laugh now, but one day they'll be in charge!

Banksy, unfashionable?, by Cocteau 101 on Mar 28, 2008 23:09:35 GMT 1, IMO Banksy in general is now unfashionable!  The moment you have Chavs and football hooligans talking about something and certain tabliods that run articles on something on the same page as 'Get Kate Moss's Outfit for a fraction of the price' From 'Primark' and 'New Look', Its time to move on!!! 
Noodles although I'd like to disagree as the statement seems rather pompous, I have a feeling that Banksy could become kitsch.

Banksy, unfashionable?, by Heavyconsumer on Mar 28, 2008 23:13:29 GMT 1, Morons is one of the images that started me collecting. I wish I had one. The way that Banksy and Adam Neate question the value and meaning of art has been a revelation and brought art to the masses imo. If you don't like something just because everyone else is starting to, that's just as foolish as liking something just because everyone else does. FVCK what's fashionable!

Truly it wasnt meant to be a Controversial statement, its how i see it! He's becoming a brand/household name and all of these things become unfashionable in time.

Thats right! But taking down a supporting wall and selling it to a fat rich American guy that wants to buy into wots 'Fashionable' is absolutely not Street art Ethos!
