Will your Banksy lose its value?
The mystery remains! Even though the world's media seems to have run with the 'Banksy Unmasked' story, it's still unclear whether Robin Gunningham is, in fact, Banksy the graffiti artist.
The next question that springs to our minds, of course, is 'How will it affect Banksy values?' Will that Banksy limited edition print keep its value?
Unlike the conventional cliche of an artist's work becoming valuable only after their death, Banksy's art has become very valuable in a very short space of time. The 'mystery' that he's carefully cultivated (and which seems still to be in place) and his gift for publicity has driven prices up in leaps and bounds. And since there's still no confirmation of the story, the allure - and the value - of Banksy's artwork looks set to increase yet further.
