Everybody on here is missing the point. Banksy did this to prove a point that without the art world hyping up an artist and rich people bidding up the price, people don't know how to recognize art, or think for themselves at all for that matter. Without the bullshit "recognition" that the media and the art world provides in general, people are not able to distinguish good art from bad art. Banksy knew that this would happen, and that was the whole point of this exhibit. This whole facade selling art was an artwork in itself because is completely illuminates that most people don't think for themselves anymore, they value things almost exclusively based on the respect that other people give them; not on their own opinions.
Doran, it is a sad what the media has done to the art world. I for one can testify first hand to that. As an artist I know it’s who handles your work and where it’s hanging. Banksy knew exactly how this experiment would turn out. Three cheers to Banksy for proving the point!
Ragsy x the NZ women eventually sold hers in the U.K. due to issues around security measures in order to get insurance. So although she loved them she didn't want to spend her life stressing about owning them. The sale fetched around NZ$200K so just over US$100k about a year or two ago. Based on that he'd possibly get US $200k for them.
I would keep them, make a great collection, but not in my neighborhood. first word out, they be gun point at my door step. My next door neighbors house broken in, burglar cooked himself breakfast. Cops came, acted like he lived there.
@@sandraunterthiner9763 Leo is making the EXACT point. The point being most people did not buy anything assuming they were fake. Only those who enjoy the art regardless of its "worth" bought it, and bought it purely because they like it. No art critics or "art investors", but fans.... It shows that most people who claim to love Banksy are just jumping on the bandwagon because it's in-vogue, they don't really care that much for the content.
@@Stoatfacelanust It's now seven years later. It would be interesting to find out what happened to the paintings that were sold here. Did the people realize what they purchased?

If they sold, what did they sell for? Inquiring minds want to know! (Not that it matters, of course. Banksy clearly made his point here.)
@@rockets4kids Yeah, I completely agree. You'd have to think the buyers would have found out that they bought originals. Banksy offers a verification service, so they would have been able to get a certification of authenticity. Personal, I'd like to think the owners are completely unaware they have a real Banksy and that they have a few hundred thousand dollars (at least) hanging on the wall.
I am so happy for the people that bought his pieces. They bought his work for the love of the art and for this they were rewarded. I wonder if they managed to talk to any of the people that purchased his art, after finding out who the artist was.
For those who are interested on what happened next a news article here in NZ stated the NZ woman went on gut instinct believing they were genuine Banksy works after asking the vendor and being told 'yup', and a few other clues. She also claims to have talked the man from Chicago into buying as well (he must have gone to get cash out like she did - hence the time lag). She stated she was flying back to NZ that day after packing up their home in New York following her husband who'd left on an earlier flight and she only had enough American cash left to buy two canvases. Although she loved them, she finally sold them a year or so back because she couldn't get insurance to cover them without extra security measures.
@@KevinArcade87 Dont be stupid, insurance would obviously not insure an expensive painting, when its moved by a normal woman in a plane. It could get easily damaged it only would make sense not to cover the painting.

@pukeylukey199 Not ALL art. Usually just the really fancy expensive stuff like Banksy. There are a lot of really amazing artists who make really detailed interesting surreal art with cool concepts and stuff.
I've got a friend that literally throws paint at a canvas and manages to sell them for hundreds, sometimes just sticking a high price on a painting is what sells it.
The most valuable piece of art is that $60 dollar sign with Banksy signature. It’s a combination of street performance, art element and social experiment fused into one!!
Mossfaerie most likely in the back. If he would have put it up front then everyone would have found out he is Banksy and his experiment would have been ruined
RUclipsr Wreckless Ben did a phenomenal series about this. He tries to sell a bad painting he made as a Bansky and discovers parts of the art world that prove this social experiment to be true: people don’t care about the art, they care about the name brands.
or they care about making money, which is kind of counter to the whole idea of the bansky art really. people buy artworks to have as an investment and monetary gain, they dont care about the art its self. its all in the value of having something one of a kind.
It was banksy selling his own art , no one would expect a great artist to be out on the street selling their own art , if he had've been selling these pieces of art at a gallery , they would have been gone in seconds , that's the beauty of this video
Absolutely not true as this is a public space you have no reasonable expectation of privacy so they don't need their permission. Thats why it's fine to take a celebrity/person's picture as they walk down the street but taking a picture of them inside their home is illegal. Similarly if they are showing coverage from a sporting event do you think they need to get permission from the dozens of fans they might appear on a news report.
You're more honest than anyone who is willing to pay thousands or more for something they don't even like and then stand back and declare... "this is brilliant!".
I love how the man selling the art hugs the people not because of the money he made, but because of how the people will be happy to find out when they realize the value of the art they bought.
I used to deliver food in Manhattan in those days and I saw an original Banksy painted on an apartment door on 34rd Street,probably that's where he used to live that month.
No it's not. Banksy has dark skin tone and looks Jewish. The last place you will see Banksy is on the street selling his art in broad daylight. That man is a friend of a friend of Banksy and he was paid well that day. Peace, homie
The point here for all you followers is that no one cares until it is praised and recognized as "a work of art by the beloved Banksy". Banksy did this as his work of art. Showing how simple the average person can be. How many followers does he have on social media? Mostly young dumb adults who only follow him because he has become the posterboy for street art and they want to show that they're cool. If there were no advertising only a few would be able to understand the motive.
I wouldn’t buy a piece either because I’d probably think that the old man was just some guy trying to make money by ripping of banksy (which I wouldn’t want to endorse), rather than it being actual original pieces of art.
couldnt agree more. this would be my first thought as well. just replicas done with a printing press on canvas. we are raised to be skeptical and if something seems too good to be true, it usually is. this is the rare exception.
I don't think Banksy is about Art it's more about sending a message making a statement criticizing the world and some humans within . ART either makes you happy angry sad or just makes you think
Somo of those pieces reach prices from 50k to 1M in London and NY auctions. Banksy wanted to show how superficial is the world of art commerce and how value is relative to the place or the person who offers it. You have to see "Exit through the gift shop" his mockumentary about a self created "pop artist" who becomes insanely famous.
I love what this says about true artist. It doesn't matter what its priced at. When you love it you do it and will sell it for little to nothing. U just want to share you love of art with others. I too wish I passed by. Would have thought it was a fake or someone copying. No one would believe a real banksy is 60. But love the lession taught.
Love this meaning of what he proved. Such a talented artist, i would have got a loan to buy all!!! I paint and havent sold one painting in almost 4 years. Ive done craft shows, never sold one. But i still create.
I don't think thank Banksy on canvas makes us feel the same way as Banksy on a concrete wall. "Art makes you feel something the artist once felt.” Tolstoy
I stumbled upon this with a big ☺️ I buy art because I love it or it says something to me. There's something so wonderful about a piece made that has spirit to it, something engaging, something that stimulates the soul.
Not trying to sound like a greedy fuck but each of those paintings are worth anywhere from $50,000 -$250,000 and they're being sold for 60 a piece and no one even notices. I would have noticed his work in an instant and I would have bought the whole fucking kiosk.
You would have notice his work in an instant?? Really??? How would you have known it wasn't fake?? And saying you would have just known isn't realistic. Anyone can easily fake works of art. Also the canvas were just spray paint and stencil, that's fairly easy to copy. I know for a fact that I would have though that the old man was just trying to make a quick buck off the hype that was all around New York at the time and would've probably ignored the sale, like everyone else.
Alannah Hurley Yes, I would have noticed in a heartbeat; mainly because I follow him on instagram and he posted this just as it was being setup. I live too far away and I do not know anyone that lives in NY so it would have been impossible for me to get one unless I were there.
+I Don't Have Man Boobs (erislaton) no Banksy posted about the canvas sale the day after it happened. Like he did 2 works in one day, one was a graffiti of some sort and the other was this. Only did he post about the canvas sale the next day, as the work of art of the day.

I'm eyeing that painting the man in blue bought. Sad that I'm not in that time, place, and year. 😅 From the start when I saw it I felt something, I never even know this old man is banksy and who is banksy after I read comments here. 😱
People say this video shows how cruel the world is to the old man by not buying all of his art. He made 420$ a day. If he did it every single day he'd earn 12k a month.

I'm in such awe of this man.....I had walked by, I would have had a fit....

$420 a day. Even if he wasn't rich and famous, he'll still be above average.
Takes a lot more than a day to paint them. It said that those are original paintings, not copies.
this are spray paintings and they are done in 30 minutes each.

still got my two skateboards he painted for me
Hello my name is Younes from Algeria I want to know you if you accept my invitation I await your response
I walked by this stand a dozen times that morning and never bought one
I dunno who Banksy is, but the art here looks pretty cool.
Imagine just the feeling they had the when they saw his post that they are the real deal.
Do you can see the Banksy sign for somewhere. I didn’t !!!
I am happy to say that I met Banksy. He is a really amazing guy. He pulled over on his barge with a friend and he bought me a drink from the pub.. We talked for more than an hour.... He is genuinely a very nice guy.
he has a barge? Isn't that like a long flat boat for moving things?
Banksy is just a name and even he knows it. That's why he can ask 20k for work that is basically mass produced using a stencil.
All those people walked right by a fortune
I would love one of these. I love the messages they convey and just having something done by Banksy himself is amazing
His originals cost £25 each in 1998 outside the watershed 💦 in Bristol I never had the money to pay for one I was living in Jamaica Street hostel what a gutter!!
Wow I love his work might I known about this I would flew to ny and bought 5 of them off top ..
I would have bought his whole stand...
so you are telling me, i walked pass a NYC street stall worth hundreds of thousands, if not millions of dollars of art?!?
If only he painted an ugly banana with a brown background. That would be priceless.
I'm eyeing that painting the man in blue bought. Sad that I'm not in that time, place, and year. 😅 From the start when I saw it I felt something, I never even know this old man is banksy and who is banksy after I read comments here. 😱
The real price!! FINALLY!!
These people have no idea how amazing this man's work really is,wish i was there *sigh*
what is great about it?
just goes to show, pretentious art collectors/ academics people etc who claim to know a thing about art ....I LIke this dude
The man from chicago is the big winner....
People say this video shows how cruel the world is to the old man by not buying all of his art. He made 420$ a day. If he did it every single day he'd earn 12k a month.
One more please
Is that legal?
He hired Stan Lee to sell his art. That's pretty epic in its own right.
Haha I can’t tell if you’re joking or you really think that’s Stan lee
