MORONS (WHITE & GOLD), 2006 Screenprint on paper Signed and numbered in pencil "BANKSY AP/02" Artist's Proof with Modern Mutiples blindstamp 22 1/2 by 29 1/2 inches PROVENANCE Gifted from the artist to present owner Banksy's satirical critique of auctions, and the contemporary art market which fuels them, is blatantly inscribed across the fictitious work for sale. Banksy, who himself is unabashedly a part of this market, presents an image of an auction sales room that delights in the senseless consumption of anything labelled "art." The print was originally released in conjunction with Banksy's now famous 2006 show “Barely Legal,” in a Los Angeles warehouse, which was his first major exhibition in the United States. This rare Artist’s Proof print is from the original run which depicted a gold-colored frame. Request a Condition Report Sign Me Up To Phone Bid! Categories: Banksy
