Banksy Slave Labour, by Deleted on Jun 3, 2013 22:41:45 GMT 1, I have a grinder, I have to take her on holiday with me. She grinds everyone she meets who hitherto was one of my mates. Nearer the time I'll send you a PM so we can share in the spoils or at the very least have a Chiringuito crawl down the coast......

Hopefully the Lyme Regis piece wont go anywhere Plip. Its on the side of a garage and is sprayed onto render that was cracking when it was first up. The bottom half of the legs are virtually gone now due to high waters last year and its faded a lot. Great to see this piece weathering away as it should do. Was down there on Staurday admiring it - must have seen this piece on at least 25 seperate occasions. I'll take a pic when im next down there and update the thread

Banksy Slave Labour, by RolexDave on Jun 4, 2013 7:22:36 GMT 1, This is what ex Four Rooms supremo dealer, Jeff Salmon, had to say about the piece on twitter...
Jeff Salmon โ@jeffsalmon 15h
Please don't believe the hype that the #Banksy #SlaveLabour mural has just sold for ยฃ750K. It's nothing but bulls**t. Sue me if I'm wrong.

Just because it's on a website it doesn't mean it's true. Don't believe the hype. |

Is that the same Jeff Salmon who placed a ยฃ230k bid on the Croydon Ikea piece on Four Rooms a couple of years ago so that he could hype up himself and the tv show that he was on? .......He's one to talk about bullsh*t, sue me if I'm wrong.

Banksy Slave Labour, by kfroms on Jun 4, 2013 23:00:51 GMT 1, Aside the question if that thing sold or not for whatever price or not - is it me or is that a rather boring, mediocre piece of 'Banksy'?
Assuming this was a print - would anyone actually want to have that on their walls?

An awful lot of Banksy images wouldn't work as prints, as they're "location specific". On the side of Poundland, in the run up to the Jubilee, it's a good image. On the wall of a trendy apartment, in 2015? Not so much.
And it is a depressing image to have on the wall. But then so is Banksy's Napalm, but a lot of people love it, so who knows?

Anyway, i clearly should resign from my daytime job and become the next male Bambi.

Ha. I'd love to see "the new Bambi".
And I guess, as always, individuals can choose what's "good" art. But then, what's good art, is not always a good investment, and vice versa.
It was a witty piece of street art. And it had a message. Worth more as a Banksy, mind.
If Bambi had done it.....
The sad thing for me is, in all of this nonsense about it being "stolen", the auction, all of the "Give us our Banksy back", and its dollar value, nobody seems to give a flying toss about what the piece was saying.

Where's Robin Barton and his concierge (posh doormen) mates? crawled back in their holes?
