Daylight robbery - Clown / Stowe / Banksy, by Terry Fuckwitt on May 15, 2022 17:29:00 GMT 1, We've seen this happen time and time again over the years. Elephants, Sketchy WCP, Mrs Banksy, Monkey Parliament, Clown Merch and now this tat. Every single time it's marketed with a "please dont share...", "could be Banksy, who knows", "how could they get permission if it wasn't" etc etc. It's a scam as old as the hills. Use your common sense and kick it into touch. Clown skateboards were part of the team, I kinda agree with mason with the monkeys, thatโs taking the piss and the rest are pure copyโs. Fact is this was given to clown and because of that itโs got a great connection, see what happens anyway. I think itโs ok. Why the sudden hate for piss taker Mason Storm and his monkeys? This was your first post as a member of this forum.

If that doesnโt ring alarm bells then nothing will.

We know it isn't
yet people still buy, and they make more money
It's easy, lazy money.
Example. Phone up Clown, can we do a collab, we both make say ยฃ90k each, we'll do the printing and distribution if You can chuck in a bit of marketing and help with some smoke and mirrors that we can both use
They'll make a few million on this and others after rinsing and repeating over the next few years, the prints will drop to well below cost....<edit> Or, maybe I am wrong and this is all wonderful and the image is one everyone wants and Stowe is wonderful for bringing it to print and allowing us to buy it?

Iโm guessing a collab with the Very very good, very very nice, chicken nugget guy from Tenerife. Another example of milking a pair of titties until the only thing they have left to give is sand and a headache.. This may mean nothing to most.

Daylight robbery - Clown / Stowe / Banksy, by Acme Thunderer on May 15, 2022 21:06:12 GMT 1, An interesting thing about this, is how would other artists view Stowe given the overall negativity about them?
I would like to say that the majority of artists have professional integrity and are not just interested in money. Would an artist think twice about working with a gallery if they have a negative reputation?
There are artists who I really liked before they had releases with Stowe (such as Royโs People and Paco Pomet), who I personally wouldnโt consider anymore as I feel their work has been over-exposed and milked for every ยฃ possible.
Itโs a real shame and I hope Stowe can reassess their faults and realise that collectors are seeing straight through the way they are currently operating. But if they are blinded by greed, then it probably wonโt happen (as we will see from Monkey Parliament Part 3).

Daylight robbery - Clown / Stowe / Banksy, by Dubman on May 16, 2022 9:43:30 GMT 1, I kinda agree with @richmatt and others on the forum, its a great image that will look the bollocks raised / float mounted with a black ornate frame and hung on the wall IMO.
Stowe Gallery get a rough ride here (and Im not opposed to giving anyone a roasting), but Ive dealt them on numerous occasions and never had a problem. Everything has arrived on time, excellent quality, well packaged and as described.
Im an avid collector and cant be assed for politics, I love the image and from a commercial perspective, business is business - if i could release something I got 20 years ago time and time again to make good money, I would.
Don't believe Im alone on that one..

I also like the image but I donโt think it is right if Banksy is not involved because they are selling APs. Iโve sent an email to the gallery asking if Banksy is part of it, and expressing my concern that if he is not then selling APs is not right (and of it is true that Banksy is not involved then a refund would be the next step). I havenโt got an answer from the gallery confirming or denying it, just an email cancelling my order. I read that action as confirming that Banksy is not part of it.

Totally agree. However, I never believed for a minute that Banksy was involved. I didnโt opt for the AP just the numbered version so Iโm less concerned about that. Iโll never be able to afford a real print and if I had that amount of spare cash Iโd be investing in property instead. This is the only way that I can get a Banksy image, which is screen printed, and also which is of a decent quality (not home made) on my wall.
Banksy did a lot of charity stuff but also a lot for his / their own financial gain. Iโm not concerned about him / them losing out financially.
