The man who made Banksy famous, by jayTown on Sept 1, 2017 14:22:11 GMT 1, Everyone loves to vilify the person who adds a commercial element to something emotive. He might be shaking us down but he's surely been good for the artists?...I'm sure Invader didn't mind the paycheque.

Simple, if you're a total cockwobble then you're artists won't work with you anymore.

I don't get it. Invader is clearly still working with him, I bet he hasn't even cleared the funds from the last sale yet.

In business there are many legit and sensible reasons aside from people being cockwobbles, why someone would change their management.

The man who made Banksy famous Would Banksy have made it this far without the guidance of Steve Lazarides? Would Banksy be even bigger now if Steve was still involved? |

The man who made Banksy famous, by kdrlly on Aug 25, 2022 8:54:17 GMT 1, What option do you thinks best? 1. Things as they are, with no Banksy prints being released and prices rising well beyond most people's pockets. 2. 3 Banksy prints released every year, editions of 1,000 priced at £1,000 each.

I know I’m replying to an ancient post but he can either be the man of the people or a man of the very rich people. Luckily WCP (aka Banksy, aka Pablo, aka not not Banksy… isn’t that a double negative?) is doing the man of the people bit quite nicely. |

But otherwise they could just easily be reproduced again and again at your local high street photo shop. www.ebay.co.uk/itm/325334377656

The man who made Banksy famous, by bluewater73 on Oct 17, 2022 18:42:49 GMT 1, You are correct. However I think a little credit should go to Centurys , London rep., a young Banksy enthusiast who pitched the idea/format and brokered the deal himself for "Wall and Piece" with Steve . It turned out to be the biggest selling Art book ever. Banksy was obviously a recognised graffiti artist in Bristol and London but with the release of the book his popularity soared

With Banksy hiding his identity, Steve acted like a spokesperson, and with his gift of the gab style, I feel it was a large part of the success. How long has it been now that Banksy hasn't had a spokesperson? a human face to talk to the media and appear on the news or at events? Yeah, Banksy puts out some very witty statements, but Steve has that cheeky chappy delivery that added too the naughty boy Banksy persona.
