I think Carl that used to have Amilas had some? or at least knew who did have, problem is Amilas are no more and i dont know Carls forum name.
The Bullet Proof Vests and the Riot Shields were good.

Hi Wiz.
Im back. Yes the bullet proof vests were fantastic. Those are his best originals IMO. Good to see WB getting his work out there.

Have you been in touch with him direct?

I had the pleasure of going round his workshop and helping myself to some of his work for an exhibition/production i was doing. He is very helpful, and I'm sure would be more than happy to deal with you directly. There is a great deal more to his work than has been made visible to the public.

Good luck.

[mmmike]

Great stuff. I also emailed directly a while back. Very nice to deal with. But being from Canada it is a bit harder to check out the work.

Hi All

What are people's thoughts on the catalogues that are now being mailed out.

I thought the Banksy was a bit poor, lots of old stuff, great stuff, but seen so much before. As for new stuff, I think "Go Flock Yourself" is not up to his usual standards in terms of quality of image and excecution.

Loved the "Laugh Now" on door, whcih I am sure was on sale with Laz for 100K plus!!!!

I loved the War Boutique pieces. Am very tempted to buy something, but, ignorance to the fore, have never heard of Kevin Leahy. Not that this should make a difference, but to pull trigger on 1K plus for, for me, an unknown, is a bit scary.

Thoughts???

[Sliding on the Walls]

No prices on any of the Banksy works but prices on all the War Boutique works...

I want to see consistency!!

go for it!

Andipa charges a lot so expect prices to be sky high....

[nacional]

And the banksy pieces?

[wentos]

I know its not to everyones tastes and apologies if its old news, but Art Republic still have signed and numbered prints available from WB for £125.

[Sundowner]

I've seen the pricing for the Banksy's. Lowest was £38k for the Lenin all the way up to £250k for the custardised oil.

[Sundowner]

The Go Flock Yourself piece was purchased at the Dreweatt's auction at Selfridges in 2009....for a lot less than its current price.

[sohohoho]

Helium Foundation have a "Precision Bombing" canvas for sale with a list price of £28k if anyone's interested.

Why has a thread about quite an important retro. about the artist this site was set up to chat about only generated 17 comments and a thread about a (IMHO) regular/dull print by Eine generated 60 comments??

Has the path been lost somewhere???

[Goooogle Male]

old news...they've all been seen/discussed before - nothing new in the exhibition

[nacional]

but they have never been exhibited together in this way as a representative retrospective of his work up to now...one can see development etc...is that surely not more interesting than a new print release by whoever...or perhaps not??'

Eiene was recently released, there's a chance to make a buck.

Not really a retrospective though is it. As the pieces are for sale its simply that, a sales show of work everyone has seen before. Im sure an official show of good or new works would have a thread 50 pages deep by now.

[nacional]

Perhaps your right...but maybe bonesy is right as well which is a bit depressing....

[BorntoKiln]

I much prefer the older banksy work to his newer stuff. Was a pleasure seeing them but more interested in the WB work. For me his work is deeper and more meaningful.

Andipa didn't hang it well, not enough space for the pieces to breath. Hanging a Beast of England over the stairs... the mind boggles.

i actually quite liked it there.. peering over you whilst you walk downstairs.

also really liked the shot at pieces, stopped by last monday when the artist was laying down the piece on the floor.. lots of handgun & shotgun shells, looks great.

really nice guy too.
