nonnaB 4,171 Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 16 hours ago, Cliff Ton said: Art is surely just a personal opinion and judgement. Nobody is right or wrong. I like Banksy's material and think he's clever and original, but I don't understand why people will pay millions for Van Gogh or Cezanne or Matisse or Picasso. I don't rate them at all. The difference is Van Gogh, Cezanne, Matisse and Picasso will never know the appreciation of their work. Banksy hopefully does whether it's art or graffiti. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jonab 1,639 Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 The thing with Banksy is that he is too real a reflection on life. His visions of the British parliament are irreproachable. Here is one example: https://www.sothebys.com/en/articles/banksy-devolved-parliament-comes-to-london Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It was still attached to the bike 1st thing Thursday morning & it was gone by 11am In Banksy Instagram endorsement the postbox was included, this was the postbox reported overflowing with covid testing kits? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-nottinghamshire-54434384 Bike lock, lockdown?

radfordred 5,461 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 I think the owner of the building is just protecting his assets, the wall will most problerly be removed & sold along with the bike, the Banksy artwork on the garage in Port Talbot sold for six figure sum there was a new bike there this morning. https://metro.co.uk/2019/05/29/banksy-mural-gets-new-home-sold-art-collector-100000-9727501/ https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2019/jan/18/banksy-artwork-garage-wales-sold-six-figure-sum#:~:text=A Banksy artwork that appeared,least for the time being.
