The sale will predominantly feature works by Banksy, including exciting works from the Gross Domestic Product range launched in 2019, alongside prints by eminent artists such as Damien Hirst, STIK, Tunji Adeniyi Jones, Ayako Rokkaku, Jeff Koons, Tracey Emin, Yinka Shonibare, Patrick Hughes and David Shrigley.

This auction format, cheekily titled in reference to one of Banksy’s most well-known screenprints, situates Banksy within the wider context of artists producing editions in the 21st century. The auction builds on the success of our previous dedicated Banksy auctions I can’t believe you morons actually buy this sh*t, the last iteration of which set the record total for any sale dedicated to the artist’s works, achieving £4.46 million ($6.1 million).

Banksy. Unique work. Aerosol spraypaint and stencil on heavy paper size 130 x 100 - framed 145 x 115 cm.

"Laugh Now"...unique work and probably the only existing unique work in that size. from 2001 with the

orginal antennae and feet. Exhibited in 2009 Covent Garden - BANKSY "Please Love me" 10 years of Banksy.

Banksy did this painting in the back studio of some EMI offices. The work has been shown to Pest Control.

They have shown it to the artist who confirms its him but never intended for sale, a sketch made before he bombed the street etc.. :-)

The work comes with email form Pest Control Office and with email from first and original owner who got this work directly. PCO refuses to issue

formal papers. But again they have confirmed its made by Banksy.

from Banksy as a gift. Probably the best Banksy work on the market.

What does Banksy laugh now mean?

'Laugh Now, but one day we'll be in charge' The ominous text on the board is both mocking and threatening, suggesting that the character is preparing an uprising, as if Banksy is warning of an imminent revolution. It is also the artist's humorous take on Darwin's theory of evolution.
