Bansky show in Moscow?, by Chrisp on Jan 14, 2014 9:31:51 GMT 1, Read it in the Sun this morning. 130 peices on show announced yesterday, not sure where it has come from though or when?
Quick Google search shows a couple of news posts on it.

Bansky show in Moscow?, by Deleted on Jan 14, 2014 12:09:47 GMT 1, I'd be a bit surprised and disappointed if he was putting on a show there to be honest.
With Putins new draconian anti gay laws now in place many people have been showing him their disgust and opposition to these new laws by boycotting Russia and putting on a show there would send totally the wrong message.
It just wouldn't sit right to have a street artist who's art's message often has an anti establishment message to be doing this at this time.
Just my tuppence worth anyway : )

B does have 'form' in relation to Russia btw .. Didn't he fork for a protestor a couple of years back..

Bansky show in Moscow?, by Deleted on Jan 14, 2014 12:40:16 GMT 1, Yeah I get you.
Well there seems to be a lot of rumours and speculation at the moment so we'll just have to wait and see what happens.

That what it sounds like to me after reading a bit more. 130 peices is quite a lot of work.

Agree with ling. It depends what the show says (so to speak).
But if it's a collection of privately owned pieces, well that's a different matter, and may be being put on without any input from banksy at all.
Time will tell.
Either way, it would be good if there is a catalogue/book, for those of us that can't go. If not available online, I hope someone can pick one up for me. How's that for getting a request in early!! Hehe.

Bansky show in Moscow?, by Lunch Special on Jan 14, 2014 13:31:13 GMT 1, I'm seeing this as just the opposite. I think a show by B would show how against it he is. An unknown street artist that helped fund the defense and eventual release of some of the govt's most wanted vandals ( VOINA ) is now hosting his own show in our country is a straight slap in the face at the establishment that is. His wit and comical satire is just what that country needs to empower the people to rise against the forces that be.

I concede that my view is uniformed. I haven't a clue what's going on. Just chatting, really.
You express it a little harshly though!

Bansky show in Moscow?, by letiss on Jan 14, 2014 14:21:06 GMT 1, Would it really bother people here that much if this was 'just' a gallery show of new work that catered for rich Russians and there was no obvious protest element? I imagine that if that did happen and there was a print too that a few sick days and flights would still be arranged by members on here. Dread to think how cold that queue would be though.

Bansky show in Moscow?, by saint on Jan 14, 2014 14:27:04 GMT 1, I know nothing about this show, which means nothing as i generally know nothing about anything ever.
Saying that, i think its unlikley Banksy's website would be left as is and the sun would announce it before him.
Could be wrong, but seems unlikely to be a legit show (in the sense of new works created for it, rather than old works on show without banksys input).... in my humble opionion. And again just my opinion and i could well turn out to be wrong. I have scheduled my private jet however, and can fit 2 forum members in should we need to make a dash for it. First 2 to pm with the offer of a reacharound get the seats.....

I'd laugh if this wasn't so f**king pitiful If you're better informed - why not add to the discussion rather than shooting it down. Edit: urbanartassociation.com/thread/109079/hierarchy-disagreementYou're on the bottom 2 layers of your own triangle.
Because it's much easier for him to come on trolling than to actually add to the discussion.
Badrobot frequently falls foul of the hierarchy of disagreement triangle that he posted on here - an irony not lost on many people !
