Lingering questions from BOTI, by yoyosh on Jan 27, 2015 3:03:32 GMT 1, No one ever found this piece, right? It appeared only as a teaser to the show and many of us thought it was in LA.
 Yay
Also, where'd the Banksy x OS Gemeos pieces wind up? A private collector? Perhaps in a storage unit somewhere?
im sure there's more unanswered questions from BOTI but I have thought about these 2 a bunch.

Re the OS Gem pieces again no anwser. Collectors poss but may well have kept one each as well.
Who knows think it's great that these few things are left out there

Lingering questions from BOTI, by Deleted on Jan 27, 2015 6:58:51 GMT 1, The first piece was never found (also the 'ants nest' was never found)
And re the paintings: One painting will be at the twins and the other at Banks-HQ of course 
On my part.... I would like to know what (really?) happened on the day there was no art due to police activity.
 *
It seems to me that the statement itself was the art. I can not believe that Banksy would let a couple of cops stop him from putting up a piece a day for an entire month?.......
Or did they and was there more to it?... (que the X-files tune)
*I also like the fact that he used the English way of spelling cancelled instead of the American english way.

Lingering questions from BOTI, by yoyosh on Jan 27, 2015 15:15:26 GMT 1, @json I'd love to know too. MY thought process was always that at that point Banksy and his team certainly had NYC's police dept and Mayor's attn. Perhaps they did spoil some great piece that the world will never see?

Probably having a quick change of transport. |

The statement itself is lovely. And real art in my book.
But the way it was presented it can't be art...
" Today's art was cancelled due to police activity"
In other words;
"Due to the police there was no art (made) that day,"
Means: the statement was created that day (which makes it no art).
(Cue : law and order boing-music-thing)

Anyone remember which day it was? Never read the bible, but didn't God or Jesus or Adam or someone rest on the 7th day or something? I can consult my R Crumb Genesis book for reference if need be

Lingering questions from BOTI, by Deleted on Jan 27, 2015 22:34:15 GMT 1, Another BOTI question : How come Banksy left a part of his priest stencil behind? Did he get busted and did he had to bail or was it a "mistake"?
