Good point

Cannot wait to observe the negativity and the Jekyll and Hyde nature once this one drops and most miss out.

what a silly thing to say, of course it wouldn't. that's because art pieces have value...each one, by any artist. A lot of the value is derived by image, but large portion is definted by the artist. The artist can have value for a billion reasons but in this case it's because it's an established artist that appeals to a lot of people. Put an image (which in your opinion may not be strong) that is good with an artist with a lot of inherent value and there will be a lot of demand.
if warhol released the same print tomorrow there would be a queue, the argument works both ways.

His comment was so silly you've managed to reiterate it, ie. depending on the artist associated with said image demand will alter.
I like this image and actually tried to start a discussion about it, it is however quite obvious very few people here have any opinion - other than getting hold of it due to the value. Which is fair enough, but it does not make anyone here more worthy of a print than any other stereotype they wish to bandy about.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by eschiff on Feb 29, 2012 0:07:48 GMT 1, agreed
why do you make the assumption that a monetary value is a negative? Because a few dozen people will make a bunch of money from a print release? Think how many more will get in to art because of the exposure of banksy, his movies, street work and print releases.
I think being caught up in a people making money is a waste of energy and misguided.

I'm not, I say it's 'fair enough', I couldn't care less.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by kenzler on Feb 29, 2012 1:19:55 GMT 1, I like it myself. Not his best but still a great print. I said before I would like to buy this at source but not at eBay prices. I don't have the eBay money so unless some angel sells there's for cost I'm missing out again this year.
So March is close and I hope sitting outside all night is not the way forward. A/L needed, patrol or train cost to London and a punch up with people jumping in before you sounds a little OTT for me so raffle option for me or something along those lines.

Banksy Gorilla Print Release - POW, by Trevorm on Feb 29, 2012 14:26:46 GMT 1, Here's a cunning plan:
I run a medium sized electronics company (don't really) and i could send some of my men up to Comm st later - just in case there is a release next week (or the week after, obviously) - to install some dummy CCTV cameras above and around the entrance to POW. Thinks!...........
Hang on a minute! Why don't POW install a real system, even on a temporary basis, to monitor this years goings on it'd be as effective as security bods. Probably more effective.
Or how about one of my other Companys (not true either) provides full size card board cutouts of forum members + BANKSY POLICE uniforms to slip into to patrol, Dave the Albanian; his family and friends and the other by now orderly queue as a result of all the CCTV that's appeared.
