之前那幅在拍賣會上,得標後自行銷毀一半的 Banksy 作品,得標者確定要用原價買下。
而這幅畫作的歷史意義,就是第一幅在拍賣會上加工的作品,加工之後,連題目也改了。從「女孩與氣球」變成「愛在囚籠裡」。當然,意義也變了。
蘇富比說,得標者是他們長期的顧客,一個歐洲的女性收藏家。
我覺得最有趣的是,加工後的作品,拿氣球的女生,是沒有臉的。就跟購買的買家一樣,匿名低調,在這整個瘋狂的表演儀式中,沒有臉。
作者對買家說的話,就像是「你對女孩拿氣球的愛,就是一種囚籠,而畫作處理後,你關住的愛,不是本來的樣子,連你自己,也被關住了。」
蘇富比最後提到,這幅出名的作品,將會在展示間中,公開展示兩天,要看要快,連最後入場時間都寫給你 XD
We are pleased to announce that the winning bidder on Banksy’s ‘Girl with Balloon’ last Friday night in London has confirmed their decision to acquire the new work that was created in our salesroom. Newly titled ‘Love is in the Bin’, the piece has become the first artwork in history to have been created live during an auction. The buyer, a female European collector and a long-standing client of Sotheby’s, is proceeding with the purchase at the same price as was achieved in the room on the night.
‘Love is in the Bin’ will be on view to the public in Sotheby’s New Bond Street galleries in London on Saturday 13 - Sunday 14 October 12-5pm. Final entry to the galleries at 4.40pm.
