Interesting Ted talk by Paul Bloom on those that think "it's all about the image"
Why do we like an original painting better than a forgery? Psychologist Paul Bloom argues that human beings are essentialists -- that our beliefs about the history of an object change how we experience it, not simply as an illusion, but as a deep feature of what pleasure (and pain) is.

I have to say him repeatedly calling the famous nazi Reich marshall "Herman Gay-ring"
cause a bit of a credibility collapse as far as I was concerned

Art Wanted, by pcant on Jul 28, 2011 22:04:35 GMT 1, I get what Bloom is saying, but I think what he's talking about is how marketing works, or how "hype" works on the brain. If someone enjoys a painting because it's worth a lot of money, then they don't enjoy it after finding out it's a forgery, did they really like the painting, or did they just like the cache of having an expensive painting? The description of the violinist in the subway station is a perfect example. If his music is less enjoyable if people don't know who he is, that says more about what we claim to value or enjoy (and how we're reacting to what we've been told) than it does about the quality of his music. And I think there's a clear distinction between objects with sentimental value and something with a market value.

Totally agree...have to say though that the screen quality on bomb hugger is totally exact.
Someone knows what they are doing....
I bought a turf war as it's always been the one missing from my collection, this way I can trial how it looks on the wall and feel no buyers remorse!!

Art Wanted, by boatyb on Jul 28, 2011 23:17:31 GMT 1, arghhh! pcant - I was done...but you pulled me back in ;D
the convergence of "sentimental value" and "market value" by true art lovers is not so uncommon???...these values "seem" to be talked about on here as always completely disconnected, but it can be much more complicated than that...
let's say you unknowingly buy a fake piece of art at the top of the market because you loved the image and thought the "market value" paid was fair based on believed authenticity, price and your want (can drill deeper here, I know). You now find out it is not authentic - you've been duped and robbed; self-hate comes into play etc. etc. - you're just plain old pissed! - the emotions w/in you that arise are probably powerful and not primarily linked to the image you bought - the artist and the art piece itself becomes secondary matter "in your brain"...it turns out YOU were a factor...not just the art and "values" etc....
peace and love ;D

Boaty: Sorry to pull you back in, wasn't my intent (I do think it's a fascinating discussion, however).
As far as sentimental value, I was referring to his discussion about certain items (baby shoes, wedding rings) that have a value that far exceeds "actual" value and that extra value is tied up in our emotions and memories (I wasn't even thinking about art, but you make an excellent point in that regard).
And as to your point about being angry if you discovered you had bought a forgery, surely that anger could transfer to the piece itself, or even the blank space on your wall where it used to be? If you got burned buying a fake, would you want the "real thing" on your wall or would it remind you of being burned?
Another thought occured to me after I posted earlier: Is the reverse true? Meaning, if you get a really good deal on a legitimate print, do you enjoy it more than if you paid more for it? My only Banksy is a BW U/S Trolleys, which I really love. I managed to get it about a year ago for a pretty good price (less than they are currently fetching, for sure). I love the piece, and I'm sure I'd love the image as much if I'd paid a couple hundred pounds more, but knowing that I bought at the "right time" for the secondary market brings me a little bargain-hunter joy.
Anyway, sorry to lure you back in, but it's a very intersting discussion.
Peace back at ya.

Art Wanted, by mojjac on Jul 29, 2011 8:39:42 GMT 1, I got the HMV. I am very impresses with it. Im not an expert with all this jazz but i would say that it is a proper screen print. The paper is not a cheap type either, its thick and heavy...its even got some speckled bits thrown in. My only qualm is i think the image should be a tiny tiny bit darker..... i havent got an original to compare it to tho. My delivery was super fast and the image was sent flat between two large sheets of heavy duty board. I am uploading my pics now.....
The ink on the one I had was very thick and very dark but hey for ยฃ50 you cannot complain as it will look great framed up and on the wall.
Be interesting to see how some ones laugh now monkey looks?

I think this is a very good point. I think a lot will get numbers penciled on before framing and just like the fake rolexes and Gucci watches they will be proclaimed as real.
Think it has got to put an end to EVER buying a framed Banksy without a COA. Will be interesting to see how lond it takes a framed one to get sold on the bay as real.

Frankly if you shell out thousands for one of these in the future thinking its real then money probably isnt much of an issue for you, so no major harm done.
Its your own fault if you dont get its checked out properly and buy without COA.
They are stamped Banksy Copy FFS! Its cant be anymore honest than that!
Its about time someone started banging these out.

Actually I have a fake Flower thrower canvas.
Didn't bought it at Camden market but on ebay for 25 โฌ, I love the image but I'm not sure about quality... I bought it knowing it was fake, the signature on the reverse looks too fake to be true (carved in the wood) ;D
As far as I'm concerned it has always been about the image but quality is a real plus.

As a thought, the ones being uploaded, aren't they the same images as the ones those forgers got busted for, Grant Dell and the other bloke? They made some good reproductions before they got busted and it looks like these may be and its purely a guess, linked to them, from what I remember Bomb Hugger, Queen Vic, Laugh Now, Monkey Queen, Pulp Fiction, all game from their set up- might be they still had the artwork used for the screens and have started up on a legally semi legitimate basis...

Just asked if they are intending doing any Kate's nice one, you beat me to it. Love this discussion one of the most interesting I have read on here. As a thought, the ones being uploaded, aren't they the same images as the ones those forgers got busted for, Grant Dell and the other bloke? They made some good reproductions before they got busted and it looks like these may be and its purely a guess, linked to them, from what I remember Bomb Hugger, Queen Vic, Laugh Now, Monkey Queen, Pulp Fiction, all game from their set up- might be they still had the artwork used for the screens and have started up on a legally semi legitimate basis... would make sence... but semi legitimate |

Art Wanted, by xmyart on Jul 29, 2011 12:42:39 GMT 1, Frankly if you shell out thousands for one of these in the future thinking its real then money probably isnt much of an issue for you, so no major harm done. Its your own fault if you dont get its checked out properly and buy without COA. They are stamped Banksy Copy FFS! Its cant be anymore honest than that! Its about time someone started banging these out.
Always thinking of others then Klyde. Im thinking of someone that doesnt know enough getting stung. If your response is "its your own fault and you deserve it" so be it, it says a lot.
And the copy part is stamped on the reverse if im not mistaken.

Legally I think the boundaries are blurred a little as they are reproducing an image and stating it is clearly a fake, I think POW are the only ones who could stop them really and they have done nothing to stop all the other Banksy tat being peddled on Ebay, which is an appropration of his work. Where do these images stand with copyright?
