The article published on the website of the newspaper The New York Times on February 20, 2013 is headlined Banksy Work, Taken From London Wall, Turns Up in Miami, for Auction witten by ALLAN KOZINN
The article reports that the work by the mysterious British graffiti artist Banksy, which is called “Slave Labor (Bunting Boy) was vanished from a wall and turned up at an auction house in Miami. Speaking of this situation it is necessary to note that this picture showed a young boy at an old fashioned sewing machine creating a string of Union Jacks, where the flags were in bright red, white and blue and the rest of the picture was in black, white, grey and sepia. It was appeared last year during the celebrations commemorating Queen Elizabeth’s 60 years on the throne. The society was taken it as an acerbic social comment, as most of Banksy’s works , and has been regarded as a cultural attraction in the Turnpike Lane neighborhood.
So, it is necessary to point out that Banksy become an art-world celebrity and the subject of a new biography and documentary film, written by Will Ellsworth-Jones.
Analyzing this situation it is necessary to emphasize, that Fine Art Auctions Miami, where the work has turned up, has included it in a Modern, Contemporary and Street Art sale scheduled and is expecting $500,000 to $700,000 for it.
Giving appraisal of the situation it’s necessary to point out that is was a some kind of mystery how “Slave Labor” made its way to Miami. But the shop, where it originally appeared, has said that it was not involved with the work’s removal. And the auction house is not saying who is selling it, or how it was obtained.
The article draws a conclusion that Fine Art Auctions Miami has done all the necessarily due diligence about the ownership of the work, but they didn't give any information or evidence that the works were removed and acquired illegally.”
As for me, I think that today we live in in a turbulent world, where every day we say many different crimes. Of course this also connected to the medium of art. Therefore, we must develop and improve methods and ways how to protect what we hold dear to us, because there are more and more ways of taking possession of another's property.
