Futura, Fairey, Welker, MBW, by docean on Jul 9, 2016 19:48:05 GMT 1, ....I don't want to shell out for something only to see it's value diluted by more and more released. I think the real value in this print is the perspective it provides on US militarism and the country's position in the current world order from an artist that left the first wave of graffiti to serve in the US military and then returned to be a key figure in the Golden Age of NY graffiti. That isn't affected by the number of prints produced and personally I think money just obscures the true value. Just my 2c worth. Very solid point

Slate Kolain : Finish Line Print Release Today, by docean on Jul 9, 2016 14:32:31 GMT 1, I don't get it -- why are there multiple finish lines?
I feel like I'm probably missing something obvious.

SNIK What your Soul Sings - various prints / AP's, by docean on Jul 8, 2016 19:45:26 GMT 1, I always loved the red aspect of this A/P but the clash with the blue was a deal breaker for me.
glwts, with the right frame I'm sure it'll be awesome up on the wall

New Brainwash print available - Marilyn Monroe, by docean on Jul 8, 2016 11:24:56 GMT 1, Yep, but I prefer this a lot to the 'Make Art Not War' work, don't you? For me theย Libertรฉ, รฉgalitรฉ, fraternitรฉ is a lot more poignant following the tragedy that took place in France and echoes similar events around the World. In my opinion it will go down as one of his classics. Almost as if the other works/recycles were 'works in progress' until he arrived here. But that's just me.
I agree - by far one of his best prints of all time. everything just seemed to come together on this one

IDEA - Banksy Willy Wonka style competition , by docean on Jul 4, 2016 19:05:48 GMT 1, This would be the coolest thing ever.
He'd have to do it unannounced though, otherwise you'd get people buying thousands of the cheap print just to increase their odds of finding a ticket.

New Brainwash print available - Marilyn Monroe, by docean on Jul 1, 2016 17:27:00 GMT 1, It was just a joke in regards to the sheer volume of prints he released.
I wouldn't be opposed to an artist partnering like that though. totally different demographic getting exposure. I think Hua Tunan did a print for them and it sold really well. Some people can't afford prints/framing/etc but still want something cool to look at.

Why has Banksy abandoned making art for the common collector?, by docean on Jun 28, 2016 1:29:46 GMT 1, In a way I'm glad he's not doing mass releases...it adds excitement to his body of work for me. I came across a gold AP GWB a few months ago and was so excited I could barely contain myself.
contrast that with someone like; Shepard Fairey. HUGE fan base, but I come across his work in galleries, homes, etc all of the time. Still really cool, because I like his work, but not electrifying like I just found a rare treasure.
that being said,
I am disappointed at the same time. I just started collecting a few years ago so I pretty much missed the ride to the top with his work. would've been cool to feel that excitement of new releases and prices pushing past where anyone would think they would (now no price surprises me)
