Banksy 'inspired' art, by RetroCanvas on Jan 27, 2006 17:23:18 GMT 1, This maybe one for the POW members we have in the forum but anyone is welcome to answer if they know...
I talking about the art sold on ebay that is a blatent copy of a banksy images.
The artists claim that this is art inspired by Banksy. Does this, under copyright laws and stuff, allow them to this. I mean, if someone paints (not stencils) a banksy image using different colours or modifying it slighty make it ok??
I know that this stuff is worthless compared to the real thing and why people would buy it i don't have a clue. Just interested really as an artist myself. Don't worry, not going to start churning out copies, it's not my line of art.
Cheers
Andrew

Banksy 'inspired' art, by LoveRat on Jan 28, 2006 21:31:20 GMT 1, This is what Banksy says on his website, "You're more than welcome to use Banksy artwork for your own entertainment but not for unbridled crass commercial projects. Thanks "
Guess he would disapprove of most of the stuff on Ebay then !

Yeah i got caught by the stamps when they fist appeared, IDIOT ME. Lesson learned. I Don't use ebay for his art now. I only buy from POW. I might not get the old stuff, but at least i know it's real.

Banksy 'inspired' art, by Daniel Silk on Jan 30, 2006 23:59:35 GMT 1, Most of us cant really afford to spend loads of money on art but when you find that you can buy a genuine Banksy print, and if you ever need the money you can sell it and always get your money back, then we all start to happily spend a bit more.
many of these fake canvases on ebay they are not cheap and its very unlikely you could ever sell them and get your money back.

Banksy 'inspired' art, by gm on Feb 3, 2006 9:51:08 GMT 1, I don't see the point of the copies. If you just wanted something that looks like a Banksy it'd be extremely easy to print off a pic, make a stencil and do your own. Do people actually pay money for them?

Although even that seems to be a bit beyond some people...

I think the idea isn't that bad, but the execution of it, and the mysogynistic name ('BITCH LOVES COCK') is bad.
Apparently he's selling it because he couldn't get it well hung

That is pretty poor by any standard.......who the hell buys this crap? why would you want a bad copy? Anyway, I'd only ever buy from a reputable source such as POW. Advise all fans to do the same.
