Missing A Bargain

[Guest]

A stunt by Banksy in New York with a stall in Central Park selling signed original stencil artwork.

 

 

Would you have missed out on a small fortune, by not buying an orginal on canvas at 60 dollars, by Banksy world famous street artist.

I would for sure know enough to buy one...however

 

I personally do not like his work given it mostly bling.

 

He is a superb marketeer however.

Banksy began as a freehand graffiti artist in 1990–1994^[13] as one of Bristol's DryBreadZ Crew (DBZ), with Kato and Tes.^[14] He was inspired by local artists and his work was part of the larger Bristol underground scene with Nick Walker, Inkie and 3D.^[15][16] During this time he met Bristol photographer Steve Lazarides, who began selling Banksy's work, later becoming his agent.^[17] From the start Banksy used stencils as elements of his freehand pieces, too.^[13] By 2000 he had turned to the art of stencilling after realising how much less time it took to complete a work. He claims he changed to stencilling while he was hiding from the police under a rubbish lorry, when he noticed the stencilled serial number^[18] and by employing this technique, he soon became more widely noticed for his art around Bristol and London.^[18] He played football with the Easton Cowboys and Cowgirls in the 1990s and toured with the club to Mexico in 2001.^[19] Banksy's first known large wall mural was "The Mild Mild West" painted in 1997 to cover advertising of a former solicitors' office on Stokes Croft Avenue, Bristol. It depicts a teddybear lobbing a Molotov cocktail at three riot police.^[20]

 

so who was on the football team to Mexico?

From your link <<Banksy is a pseudonymous English graffiti artist, political activist, film director, and painter. Although his identity has not been proven, reliable sources report that he is believed to be Robin Gunningham, a former public schoolboy>>

 

​What a naughty public school boy!
