Don’t be ignorant. It wasn’t planned in any way, shape, or form by the auction house. The shredder, controlled by a remote held by an accomplice and imbedded by the frame, malfunctioned and prevented the painting from being fully shredded. Obviously it held some form of a publicity stunt, but that doesn’t deem it less worthy of praise. It’s art, it’s meant to be art, and art is meant to be seen.

Penile 1 - A valid point. It certainly did rise in value to the person that brought it. Although Banksy would not have got the extra value as the buyer agreed to go through with the sale. You are assuming that it would have been worth less if it had gone all the way through. I am not so sure. If you are insinuating that Banksy is like any other artist, then that falls down as his street works are of no value to him, and sadly are of value to those who own the wall, and rip it down to sell for themselves. It is possible to be too cynical you know. To me Banksy is a breath of fresh air to the art world.

There's nothing to miss. News networks use green screen all the time when talking to correspondents overseas. It's not even close to being relevant wrt this story, nor does it change any claim from this story. The painting was still shredded. People get so caught up on irrelevant details.

So basically the actual "painting" consists of two shapes created with stencils and spray paint. The stencils probably took 30 minutes to cut out and spray. You are not buying the painting itself, you are buying Banksy.

was he in the room so he could activate the shredder? i assume it was done by remote and not timer.

Such genius! How thought provoking is that! Fresh respect for Banksy! Questions.. How did he get a disguised, battery operated shredder to go off ONLY at the sound of a gavel coming down given that if it had gone off prematurely, or too late, the whole thing would have been utterly meaningless? Is the painting worth more, now, or less? Did the buyer have a cardiac arrest? Was nobody, in the gallery, in on it?

My guess is that the artist had someone at the auction remote control the shredder and since the painting became damaged, they wouldn't have to proceed with the purchase.

Thats what happened to Christina Fords frequent flyer records.

I don't see how a painting could be worth 1.4 million, especially that one that is mostly white canvas. Art is so stupid, anyone could have drawn a girl holding a red heart balloon, so I just don't get why it was special, and why it shredding makes it more valuable. But I guess it's a good hustle for the artist. Probably took him 15 minutes to make that picture, a week or so to get the framing worked out and proper for it, and then sold it for $1.4 million, so he made a ton for basically no work.
