Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by Coach on Jan 24, 2012 0:25:12 GMT 1, A lottery?How Does it work? You send your email to POW and you wait?
Nope - auto entered if on mailing list, leaving you worried whether your name is in the hat or not!
Assuming, that is, its the same as previous lotteries.
Never won one btw.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by naughtyshorty on Jan 24, 2012 12:58:11 GMT 1, I still reckon that the whole image of the print has not been released and that the gorilla is just a small snap shot. Remember that they did the same thing with nola with the first image release....

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by hunter007 on Jan 24, 2012 14:34:35 GMT 1, Guessing the reason why the arm looks fooked is because in the street piece this part of the arm is missing i can only assume the finished will be done better and this was purely done to get into the POW catalogue. Drawn by POW stuff probably which atleast should mean the final print will look better

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by BorntoKiln on Jan 31, 2012 2:41:39 GMT 1, I think I like the street piece ALOT more than the print. Is there any more reference to this piece besides its on some wall in Bristol that got painted over? I'm trying to like it and it keeps falling short. Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't this image put up on Banksy's homepage along with a witty quote when the Daily Mail did the expose on him a few years back?? Have always loved this image but it's so old so i'm suprised it has been chosen to be released now!
I was chatting to a pal the other week - And I think he might be on to something. The Gorilla in the mask is B, B looks pretty pissed off. B wants to lose the mask, he's been playing hide and seek for quite some time now and feels its time to end the game - After all, everyone knows who he is and where he's hiding.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by naughtyshorty on Jan 31, 2012 12:17:29 GMT 1, straying back to the topic, i cant believe this would be the complete image. as has been said before, this seems to have missed all of the events of 2011, as well as the range of topical issues that can be captured.... am hoping its just part of a large image that will soon be revealed..

if its accurate, them I am unable to muster enough words to express my utter meh at this image
Maybe Banksy should release his new images at IKEA, so we can all get a frame sorted at the same time & avail oursleves of the meatball lunch specials as a little treat. We need soemthing to look forward to

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by hunter on Jan 31, 2012 14:07:41 GMT 1, Well I like it and not just because of the Bristol connection. Think this has more meaning behind it than some recent releases ie CYW and donuts. The futility of trying to hide your identity perhaps.
Having said that I hope the glitter comment was just a joke.

Ha - yes, was a wee bit pissed and taking the piss.
Thought I'd get a lot more banter than this though.
Very disappointing.

There is an elegance and a sadness in the image that is undeniable. I, for one, dig it.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by Hubble Bubble on Feb 3, 2012 8:52:18 GMT 1, I like the image. Think it's quite enigmatic - and the colour variations in the mask will be cool but not overpowering. So bring it on.
Pidge -- 'released by cannon'... haha ... I remember that... there's 30 mins of my life i'll never get back looking through that video. Think that was a red herring of the smelliest variety - not even sure where it came from.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by payney on Feb 3, 2012 16:33:08 GMT 1, OK then. Verdict I am not happy with the size of the print , but this seesm to be the standard size nowadays. its is dinky enough to get framed up cheaply The POW pre framed edition is a good idea, but not sure of people want to pay £550 ? though it will be easier to get than the normal eds. if only because of the near doubling of price. I would be a bit concerend to get this posted out - would opt for the collect in shop option if possible ( assuming you get one of course ) the colourways look rather horrible, but eat least the amount of colourways availabel will give some people a chance of getting one. The Chocolate s**tty brown one is particularly vile but if you look back top the CYW, colour doesnt seem to be a make or break decision these days- just getting one is reward enough it seems The diamiond dust on the VIP edition is hardly original, but a nice touch - not that these will be offered for sale anywhere soon ...I can see the VIP night sioree being packed out, wehat with the other stuff coming out that night And...I prefer the lottery to be honest, as the last couple of queues were unpleasant, but s 50/50 split does make sense and give those not in London a chance Should I bother queieng that night ? depends on the weather I suppose but 12 hours in the spring drizzle for a garish colourway isnt that tempting I will take my chance with the lottery I think
have we missed something?
