BANKSY SELLS ORIGINAL WORKS WORTH A FORTUNE FOR £38 (ABOUT 30300 CHILEAN PESOS) EACH IN NEW YORK BOOTH
This article is about Banksy, this british street artist sets up a booth
in Central Park to sell his work. Banksy usually sells his work for thousands
of pounds in auctions and sales worldwide, but is different when he decides to
set up a booth in New York on Saturday and sell these pieces of street art.
This article also presents what Banksy wrote on his website: "Yesterday I
set up a stall in the park selling 100% authentic original signed Banksy
canvases. For $60 [£38] each." In the same website we can watch a
video showing an old man selling Banksy’s work, no one thinks that these are
original canvases, but they actually are. At the end of the day he only earned £263
(209.300 chilean pesos), while the valuation of a medium size canvases is
estimated to be in about £140,000.
The final part of the article present us information
about the last exhibition work of the artist “Better Out Than In: An Artist
Residency on the Streets of New York”; and finally the author concludes the
article with a pair of examples of Banksy ‘events’ in New York city.
