BANKSY Gross Domestic Product™, by Winter on Oct 28, 2019 17:36:53 GMT 1, I only entered once and gave a crap entry for does art matter. My expectations are zero. Did get a mat though. I assumed that if you got a mat or even put yourself on the waiting list you were out of the running any way as that would be your one item. Edit: this may have been discussed but just to many pages to go through
I didn’t order the mat through GDP. As I said my expectations are zero so it doesn’t mat-ter anyway.

Prepaid VISA cards, by Winter on Oct 24, 2019 8:44:09 GMT 1, Hate Revolut, had nothing but problems and serious stress. Every time I used them and I mean every time they would freeze my money and ask me to send proof of funds - banks statements, annual tax returns, invoices etc. While you do this you can’t communicate with them so you don’t know when your money will be released to the person you’re paying and worse, you can’t communicate to the person waiting for the money when they might get paid. Not good news if there’s a chance a deal could fall through. Hideous company.

George Condo 🇺🇸 New Print Release • Print For Sale, by Winter on Oct 22, 2019 12:53:29 GMT 1, Personally think 'Line of Figures' for under £6k is a better buy and I actually prefer it. hamiltonpressgallery.com/project/george-condo/ I think Tate have lost the plot with that price.

Is Banksy Jamie Hewlett?, by Winter on Oct 22, 2019 12:50:04 GMT 1, That banksy doesn't have one style. Which is fine cause other artists don't either. But that means using the srugment that his work is not the same style as someone people claim him to he doesn't work. There is a difference though. We know Jasper John's was one person. We don't with banksy. Yeah we do know, he is one person, fact As for not being art, art is an expression of creativity - think about it, literally it can be anything if that the individuals choice of expression I know, I know, mind blown Don’t thank me I think he may have started off as a lone artist but I see Banksy more of a creative collective now. The change in his signature was an interesting move.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Winter on Oct 22, 2019 10:04:57 GMT 1, There’s so much hypocrisy on this forum. I’d bet most people who missed out want to get one so they can flip it. Looking back over the years this happens time and time again. I would say the majority of people use this forum for personal financial gain and the calling out of flippers is nothing but jealousy. The great thing about art (assuming you’re even into art) is there’s always something new around the corner.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Winter on Oct 21, 2019 23:41:16 GMT 1, As we're dissecting every possible element of this mat has anyone raised the question of what the overall material is? From pictures I've seen it looks like it could be coconut which is an incredibly exciting material. To help you all understand just how exciting it is I thought I'd share this with you - be sure to read it to the end, it even has maintenance tips! Don't mention it.
Coconut “Coir” Matting
Coir is a natural fibre that is extracted from the husk of a coconut. The husk is soaked in water for several months and is then beaten to soften up the cellulose fibres. A hard yarn is then produced that is spun by hand.
With its high level of lignin, the coconut coir is considered as one of the strongest natural fibres to date. Coir, being a tough and sturdy material, makes an excellent flooring option especially in high traffic areas.
Benefits of using Coconut Matting Coconut matting has multiple advantages, with key features that make it the perfect natural flooring solution for home and commercial purposes:
Hard wearing Coconut mats are extremely durable and can withstand repeated use. Also weather resistant, they can resist fungal and bacterial growth - this means that mildew and mould is less likely. Water Resistant
Coir has hydroscopic properties with the ability to absorb moisture in the air, which effectively creates a balance in the room’s atmosphere. Eco-Friendly and Affordable
Coir is a natural and biodegradable product that undergoes minimal processing. Unlike synthetic flooring alternatives, no harmful chemicals are used in its production. Additionally, coir matting is considerably cheaper compared with other mats.
Low Maintenance Requiring minimal effort, the occasional hand washing with a mild soap and water solution will help to prolong the mats lifespan.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Winter on Oct 17, 2019 10:54:55 GMT 1, Banksy could sell a couple of the Banksquiat APs and save them months/years of hard labour So Banksy raises awareness about societal issues, drive visibility to small organisations like LW so the ££ go to a good cause or people in need and yet we're still here to complain. Not picking up on anyone but what Banksy has done is worth much more than selling a couple a APs imho. What he's done is amazing and it's raised their profile and generated a lot of money for great causes. I'm talking about managing a huge waiting list going forward.
I'm not complaining, don't quote me and try to make out I am.

Banksy Welcome Mat, by Winter on Oct 17, 2019 10:35:14 GMT 1, I wonder what design the label will have? Doubt it'll be too exciting, but means people with incredibly low morals can't start making fakes I feel for the people who have to potentially makes tens of thousands of these. Banksy could sell a couple of the Banksquiat APs and save them months/years of hard labour
