Banksy Grappling Hook, by avec art on Aug 25, 2019 23:09:25 GMT 1, ... nice quest. It's provocative but difficult to put in a box (pun intended), which perhaps contributes to hesitancy and soft auction price/s, but what do I know. Is the grappling hook which was displayed in Ely Cathedral still coming to auction?
You might also be able to get some questions answered if you don't mind asking them publicly, I'm sure many ppl don't mind sharing their knowledge too. It's an interesting subject matter.

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Lazarus II on Aug 25, 2019 23:20:04 GMT 1, ... sounds like you've been offered a suspect one Not at all. I imagine these will not have been knocked off yet given their scarcity, complexity and fresh to market-ness. Just looking at answering some questions before potentially jumping on one. I believe these will be a key Banksy in the years to come. My opinion only of course. id b very careful before jumping on one of these, they look like they could hurt.

Itll be interesting to see what the Sotheby's one does. As much as I like his prints, this piece I feel is much more dynamic and unique. But I know that It will likely take time before any new release reaches 'iconic' status so I'm not expecting it to go crazy at auction.

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Stonetown on Sept 2, 2019 7:27:50 GMT 1, Did folks know that each of the statues is hand painted? Each is unique from the other. I was surprised to find that out after getting pics of some of the other owners' statues! Very cool!

Banksy Grappling Hook, by quinn on May 27, 2020 9:05:47 GMT 1, I’d say the results were not to bad at auction. If I paid 45k for something then in the space of a couple of years they were selling for nearly double I’d be a happy bunny.

Banksy Grappling Hook, by Gunny on May 27, 2020 9:17:12 GMT 1, These were not popular in the beginning as people were saying 'it's not typical Banksy'. The auction results were not that great due to the fact people did not know the market for them. However, since it was part of the Croydon Installation a lot more serious collectors seem to be wanting one. Not surprised as it's an amazing piece with four sprayed originals on the box. Next one at auction will be a lot lot more i would say!

Banksy Grappling Hook, by The Italian One on May 27, 2020 9:22:32 GMT 1, knowing the background of this artwork is essential to fully understand it. i love this banksy sculpture, especially if you have been to the Walled off hotel.
strong strong artwork, to me it is a Banksy at his best.

How does anyone get on the direct banksy list?

Oh well, if it got more people there then happy days. It was 45k so you still needed very deep pockets even if you got picked !

It was £40k plus VAT. my bad You needed deap pockets to get one.... that's no 12 month credit card flex, although well worth having a clear out for. I was offered the chance to go 2's on one but passed. My mate just took it himself in the end and paid installments over 6 months. Its a great piece, saw one at Ely Cathedral last year and it looked amazing in that setting 👌, Its a museum quality artwork for sure.

Each statue is the same but is handpainted resulting in variations between each piece. Its a stunning and serious piece in person.
