Was the idiot who bid the million for that work of junk still have to fork over the million?
Banksy’s a jackass and his buyer is an idiot. (sorry, I know that wasn’t perfect lady language, but I’m getting irritated with ... everything lately)
I didn’t know paint-by number pics were worth that much money.
No money changed hands so I don’t think a crime was committed except to the auction house.
Po-mo “art” continues its orgy of irrelevance.
I suspect that idiot was “Banksy’s” collaborator in this “performance art.”
Indeed there is.
I am not an artist, but I have examples of my own work on display that are much better.
He’s a jackass and a crappy artist, but he’s a rich crappy jackass artist lol.
I've been ignoring this, but no new art topics have shown up. This **** isn't and wasn't fine art. Better to run the so-called artist through the shredder, let's set up a group funding page to raise the million it will cost.
At least Banksy’s antics are pure at the core. I mean, he is still a commercial artist but compared to guys like these he seems like a hero: https://www.buzzfeed.com/bobby77/the-bouvier-affair-the-plot-thickens-1g0ql I have always said that the world of art is full of shady dealings and events like these prove this point of view.
