Banksy Street Art • IKEA Punk, by Daniel Silk on May 27, 2011 14:33:34 GMT 1, banksy should put somin out saying that any street pieces are valueless cos he put em on the street for a reason for all to see not just for the greedy f**ks who want to make a fortune tarring them out and selling them on
But thats what street art is about  if your doing pieces onto other peoples property then you have no control or rights on what happens to it It might be cleaned off, painted over, cut out and sold, thats the right of the person who owns the wall.

Banksy set up Pest Control for this reason among others! Didnt he?

Surely pest control was set up to protect and help his work gain value, rather than trying to make some of his work valueless?

Dunno, you might be right, though they don't authenticate his street work which would imply they don't want it ripped off walls and flogged, wouldnt it?

Banksy Street Art • IKEA Punk, by alexnh123 on May 27, 2011 17:56:11 GMT 1, Who would buy it off them? the dealers I mean? Nobody with any sense so if they do buy it its worth f**k all without PC cert and they would never do it. Its a vermin cert which means nothing. So if one does offer big money it will be interesting who the buyer is... banksy crew? This could be a stunt like the recent billboard and the New york piece... painted to steal... great pr stunt, maybe? Its all PR people...
i disagree that it's worth nowt. i mean if you consider the piece to be authentic, which i don't think anyone is doubting, then you're a hypocrit if you only say it has value with the pest control authentication. Below the radar of pest control and the auction houses etc this should still hold value for many.

I'm hoping i will end up laughing at the sellers on this one instead. The dealer in the scarf is a bit of a prat, but i have more respect for him.

Banksy Street Art • IKEA Punk, by Goooogle Male on May 31, 2011 14:59:35 GMT 1, let me say again...the trailer on TV is an EDIT, designed to hook your interest.
The producers would never ever give the corresponding item and value away on a trailer, ever.
For a start the advertisers would go nuts (no one need to watch the episode if they give away the 'reveal'), and secondly...well let just say it wouldn't happen full stop. It is a splice of items / bids from across the whole series. The £240k item probably hasn't even been shown yet - that is how TV works!
the only thing we know with confidence is that the banksy walls DOES NOT sell for £240k. not saying it isn't more, less or not at all. but not £240k!

Banksy Street Art • IKEA Punk, by Goooogle Male on May 31, 2011 17:03:43 GMT 1, There is excellent prov, in the sense that the piece is featured on banksy's website - which, if you read between the lines IS Pest Control certification for street pieces. On top, s they have full video evidence from being in place to fully removed that the item they are selling is the one on the site and not a copy. That is, to me, as strong prov as any buyer/collector would need.
I think people forget that a PC cert is never going to happen for a street piece as it would immediately make Pest Control liable for criminal damage proceedings by admitting liability.
btw, can anyone get this to play? might still be transcoding

I think the boat sailed on that one about 6 years ago...about the time when the bristol house was sold as a banksy with a house attached.
Banksy and his people have deliberately and brilliantly enacted a 10 year strategy to make his artwork hugely valuable. it now is, so there's no doubt that a 1-off street piece with as strong a prov as is possible to have is worth big money. The interesting thing will be to see if any of these dealers are prepared to stump up cold hard cash.
oh...and why IKEA didn't buy if off them and install it in the Croydon complex themselves (would have been a PR master-stroke to rival Banksy's), I will never know....

At risk of an exclusion order linked to cyber stalking, I think she is Jessica Taylor from Liberty X - I've certainly never seen them in the same place together...
