Insect has been around for a while and they/he have/has released a lot of prints in the past. Colourways of the same image.
At the prices POW are charging now for the new prints do we now need to be considering investment potential ?
By adding a few £'s it's still possible to purchase an unsigned Banksy from Ebay which are likely to go up in value.
£ for £ - Unsigned Banksy or signed Insect for investment?

;D Insect has done some really quality pieces over the last couple of years and with Paul Insects show coming up at Lazinc, I guess POW are building up to it by releasing these few pieces. I guess the prices are a big jump up from what we are used to  but who knows what the prices will be after a Lazinc show  |

from what I can make out this is a naked man with a strap on dildo in a fez with a clown mask on bent down for some scat action....horrible, ugly, expensive and meaningless.  |

My take on the image is a person in a farked up mask is masturbating with an machine gun! The messsage... People get off killing...? I dunno. Not to my liking, but i wish I got the Red Skull. later |

Hey Paul is cool I have "The Kid" and a signed "Claw Forest" (very under rated print cool as hell in flesh) his stuff is very well done but comparing the two isn't really fair. I mean banksy vs Insect for me isn't even an arguement. Banksy's images cary a strong message and are achieved through a minimalistic approach. Paul's images are just not the same they are tightly done i mean the kid is cool as hell but its a differnt style almost all together. For me I will take a Banksy anyday. Banksy is the king of promotion so he has a big head start on Paul regarding popularity and demand from an investment point of view. No offense Paul I know your out there . |
