You may have better info than me, but I was told by a particular auction house, apropos of nothing (I have never sold a piece of art) that artists must provide their name and address to collect on the AR cash and failing that the auction house was opbliged to retain the money until the artist does. please send payment to: Banksy c/o LAZARIDES No 8, Greek Street Soho, London W1D 4DG guess that problem is solved.

Any personal information given to a gallery would be confidential. thats how bidders stay anonymous  ;D

I think the reality is a lot of people know who he is and it surprises me that without a great deal of research its fairly easy to find out who he is and how to contact him. Either journalists aren't that s**t hot afterall or they couldn't really care less. Today I saw in one paper as shortlist of 3 people who the Stig could be, all of which were wrong

I presume by AR you mean the Artist's Resale Right? By law the ARR can only be collected through a collecting society - it cannot be paid directly to the artist, waived or assigned. There are a number of competing collecting socities in the UK at present, which collect on the ARR. It looks like Banksy is registered with DACS (the main collecting society in this field) - www.dacs.org.uk/. In practice DACS collects the money from the Auction House ("Art Market Professional") and then redistributes it to the relevant artist (minus an admin fee). In Banksy's case it wouldn't suprise me if payment is made through Laz, though it could be made directly by DACS to Banksy. Either way, an artist would not be required to give their details to the auction house in order to collect on the ARR.

Either journalists aren't that s**t hot afterall or they couldn't really care less. Today I saw in one paper as shortlist of 3 people who the Stig could be, all of which were wrong  he's not yet mainstream enough. The vast majority of the public wouldn't know what to do with the information. Until he is much more of a house hold name (remember art is generally pretty high brow to many) then they're going to be more interested in the lives of the likes of Cheryl Cole et al! That's what they want.
