Banksy, Basquiat and the Barbican, by mose on Sept 17, 2017 17:56:38 GMT 1, 2 blocks from my primary school. Do sound American saying blocks? Been here too long - can't even think of the right word ! 🤣 Whats next - calling trainers 'sneakers' 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 When we saved the UK from destruction during WWII, control of the English language was ceded to us as token of appreciation and symbol of your eternal gratitude.

Is 3D going to be there, is there a shop opening next door or can i stay there? When is the next flight, fuck im so excited i will explode. Again when is the print, i wonder if he will sign it in black or a pencil and if it will be stamped. I hope he uses a really sturdy tube. Wow look at that tube!! Thats why i support banksy.*

Hence the placement at the entrance to the car park?

I'm not sure what that has to do with the message?
Pretty sure the placement has more to do with where he could get away with it. (Assuming it was done illegally). Also a big plain wall. I have a feeling a lot of walls around there might be brickwork, but don't know it too well.

There were some press photographers there speculating if they belonged to Banksy. Absolute pleasure to have managed to see it probably won't last long - for one reason or another.

Banksy, Basquiat and the Barbican, by Deleted on Sept 17, 2017 22:47:19 GMT 1, the paint is still wet and a few people are pressing paper against the painting taking prints of the Crown on the Ferris wheel. I saw a few nice ones Very Cool.....I suppose a good quality photo of both pieces would be a great way to document the works alo.
Regarding the Ferris wheel piece, looked like it was on a studded wall from the images? so every possibility this could go, but I would imagine No chance of anyone removing the other one because of where it is painted so I suppose only vandalism or the council will be responsible for it's demise

Banksy, Basquiat and the Barbican, by Deleted on Sept 18, 2017 0:01:03 GMT 1, nex in case you thought I had forgotten to write the text, I hadn't I just simply had no words to reply to your post, the works are fantastic and for someone who has been a critic of his work recently these to me put him back on the map (someone would say he never left), but it's just an opinion of course.
what I do find most interesting though is the Ferris Wheel piece , is this Banksy saying that the exhibition is some sort of Circus Ride? and that he doesn't agree with it? a Joke in some way? Why a Ferris Wheel, round and round it goes!!! would love to know the real thinking's behind this one.
Shoot us over a P.M Mr B

You should maybe look at his earlier work, these are executed poorly and the central idea for the search piece he's used a lot. He's clearly fan of the artist and for all his criticism he's clearly promoting the show. For me it's just not that well thought out or done.
