haha true enough. I was thinking more of the fee's, but then again when you're talking a million who cares about 20k or whatever it would be.

£1 Million for a Banksy - Including the wall, by Jef Aerosol on Jan 4, 2008 2:58:56 GMT 1, selling walls ? How stupid ! What is on the street has no price, I mean : it's free ! It can't and shouldn't be sold or bought... You can buy art on a canvas in a galleery, or a print, or a photo, not art on a wall ! You can commission somebody to paint on your wall, but you can't sell the wall ! This is the very negation of what street art is !
When painting on the street, our purpose is to offer free pictures to the whole population, it's pop (ular) art, it's free art !
If i were Banksy I wouldn't accept or bear such crazy things !
This is absolutely ridiculous !

£1 Million for a Banksy - Including the wall, by slowmo on Jan 4, 2008 10:20:22 GMT 1, Think I am beginning to think Banksy needs a splasher, If I were to have splashed the work after around two days, the image would remain in photos and the street work could continue without worrying about people selling it on.
The anger factor of destroying a banksy in the forums eyes may outweigh the anger of someone selling it on though?

£1 Million for a Banksy - Including the wall, by valdemar on Jan 4, 2008 12:08:40 GMT 1, This is exactly what its about and how the History works whit artefacts, compare it to the British museum collections of large stolen Egyptian and aciant art or the mural pieces at Metropolitan or the Ishtar port in Berlin.
I like to se it in the collection of the British museum because its there style of work in size and material, its also an werry importaint piece by a British artist.
And 1mill is a f**king bargain!!

I think it's all good painting wherever you see fit but not everyone shares the opinion of us on this forum. As such I think that if you do go and stick something on someone's property you can't be too surprised if they then consider it theirs.

But it sounds like that is happening already!
