Mrs Banksy, by shy on May 16, 2020 17:32:31 GMT 1, Food for thought: What IF Mrs Banksy really is the real Mrs. Banksy? Or what if this is another Banksy trick and that this is indeed Banksy's way to get more of his art into the hands of the common man? Hmmm..... In the past people bought some "Not Banksy" stencils on cardboard and there were false rumours that they were by Banksy. This led to some people purchasing in the hope it was a stunt by Banksy. Similar thing could happen here and people purchase in hope that they are related to Banksy in some way.
Remember the street vendor in NYC selling spray painted canvas that ended up being real Banksy!
Hmmmm.....

I hope no one is stupid enough to believe that. Banksy has just put more art in the hands of the common man and it was called GDP. |

I remember that, but they were all Banksy images then. Mrs Banksy used an image by FAKE without permission saying it was by Banksy. People not very familiar with Banksy confuse work by other artists as being by Banksy.

Good marketing but bordering on fraudulent to push this tosh onto the gullible with too much money to throw away. If you really believe Banksy could have any input in this shit, then send PC an email and ask. Please post the response here, so we can have a giggle.

Unfortunately, I learned my lesson about opening up on this forum.
Regardless, I wish you well, even if you are lower than the dirt on the soles of our feet.

This is nothing more than a few college kids taking a piss and you guys grabbing a cup to sip.

Mrs Banksy, by stan139 on May 16, 2020 19:03:49 GMT 1, It's a bit harsh to suggest I 'relentlessly speculate' about the identity of Mrs Banksy. I don't. Obviously I'd like Mrs Banksy to be Banksy as I'll probably never get hold of a real one, but I'm not living in some deluded dream world. I accept she most likely isn't him. However, I do really like the images. Yes, they're Banksy knock offs - but to suggest they're somehow worse 'quality' than Banksy is wrong. Banksy is no Picasso. He's a dude with a spray can and a stencil. Any fool with a steady hand can pull that off. There's little quality to any of his work in terms of application. I remember about 15 years ago a mate of mine from Bristol telling me that Banksy isn't even the best graffiti artist in Bristol, let alone further afield. But what makes Banksy great is his vision, his ideas, his playful wit and most of all his relevance. How he comes up with this stuff is the amazing part. But once the idea is out there it that CAN be copied.

It’s the very fact that Banksy had the original ideas and that Mrs Banksy and her ilk have copied those ideas that make the quality of his work incomparably better, in my opinion.

Mrs Banksy, by stan139 on May 16, 2020 19:39:27 GMT 1, Oh , that's probably just because no one seems to make much noise about the other non-Banksy's. You're dealing with someone here who painted his own Mark Rothko for his living room. Like I said, if I like the look of it, and I can afford it, I'll have it.

Mrs Banksy, by Deleted on May 16, 2020 19:40:39 GMT 1, Yeah it’s a bit silly that they’re charging such a premium on blatant copies. It sounds like they’re good quality and will look nice on the wall but still, I’m not going to touch any of the material they produce. If they start to be original and have some creativity then I’ll buy. But to do £490 on a 1:1 copy down to the text, is a bit silly.
Did it sell?

Mrs Banksy, by wankfan on May 16, 2020 21:06:11 GMT 1, Been only on this forum two or three times and woow..... The playground bullies sure have to have there say lol. Yes we know you have your real £20k Banksy artwork on your walls well good for you 🙄👍 Well I dont! All his works I like are completely out of my budget so there is not a hell on this earth I will ever own one! I have brought a few canvas online that have been mass produced and yes they looked alright I guess they just look more like a photograph though. I found Mrs Banksy by chance online and messaged her, my first stupid question was is she Banksy and she replied they are two different people. I then asked will her work be worth more in the future and her reply was "Do not buy any of my third rated work as an investment" buy to enjoy. Well that is exactly what I did. I now own 6 and like I said in a previous comments I am more than happy with them. She has told me all I need to hear. I know shes not Banksy I know her work will not be worth anything but fook me my wall looks awesome 😁 So my advice is buy what you like. As for the same returns address being the same as PC I agree with the Virtual Address comment but 10 out of 10 for effort 👏
Grammar checkers welcome

and not much different from a lot of the art that many people are buying now at the emerging level.
Some artists, actually very few, will hit and go up in value.
Most emerging art will drop like a rock over the years and just be of value because a person has enjoyed the piece. But in many cases it won't be worth more than ink on paper or the canvas it's painted on.

Yes, all great artists steal - inc Banksy. But if they are stealing and charging in the hundreds, that’s something to be ashamed of. If they really wanted to accommodate for the fans rather than the collectors they would be charging 100 max for anything — check the original POW print costs. They’re making more than Banksy back in the day.
it is then up to the Buyers (or the market) to decide if that price is worthwhile?
So if Mrs Banksy is charging hundreds and people are buying the art then that becomes her "market price."
From the pics of her work and the remarks/reviews from forum Buyers in this thread, she seems to be producing a product that satisfies her customers.

Mrs Banksy, by met on May 17, 2020 7:09:47 GMT 1,
For this purpose, I'll set aside the embarrassment I share with terryfuckwitt about the fact it was deemed appropriate to start a thread promoting some chancer-parasite. And, for that matter, not even an interesting chancer-parasite.
A recurring problematic issue for me is disingenuous posts like the ones in red below:
Just the existence of this thread on this forum is fuckin embarrassing. You lot should be ashamed of yourselves for supporting this nonsense.
What IF Mrs Banksy really is the real Mrs. Banksy?
Or what if this is another Banksy trick and that this is indeed Banksy's way to get more of his art into the hands of the common man?
Hmmm..... She isn't. It isn't. Please stop.
Wouldn't it be just grand if this was real Banksy?
What an incredible opportunity for some folk, especially in miserable times like this!
These are regrettable on a platform like the Urban Art Association, whose visitors will of course include less-knowledgeable, inexperienced and/or naive collectors.
What such posts do is encourage those collectors to indulge in wishful thinking. And self-delusion.
It is in effect being suggested to people, "Hey, those poor-calibre artworks might actually be connected to Banksy. Who knows? Maybe that rascal Banksy is behind all of this and everything will soon be revealed. Just how much did you say Banksy prints and originals now cost? Hmmm... It might be worthwhile opening your wallet, spending your money on these, and taking a punt."
__________
We've already seen this kind of shenanigan over the years. What immediately comes to my mind is the cynically-ambiguous marketing for Outis by Graffiti Prints, and efforts made to plug the likes of Ted Patrick and Gonefellow.
They are dishonest attempts to create false hope, mislead and exploit the uninformed.

Met who are you to tell people what to buy or what not to buy?
Do you personally know who Banksy is?
Or who Mrs Banksy is?
If yes please share this info. oh great Wizard of OZ!
You have a right to buy whatever art you wish to buy, from whichever artist you choose to support... but so does EVERYONE else.
Please show some class and respect others rather than insult people on this forum.
Thank You!

I enjoy his posts and I think when people are scamming they deserve to be called out on it
To me it's the same as buying a fake handbag or Rolex watch
Do You like people being scammed? Is that your thing? If you had to guess, why do you think this was set up? Do You think it might be about money? Why do you think he/she has set the site up like banksys? Any Ideas?
Do you not think its to scam people?
What is it then? Coincidence?
