Fake Banksys Sell Out After Real Banksy Barely Sells.

Banksy, the real one, set up a pop-up shop in Central Park and attempted to sell original artwork worth thousands for $60...he didn't sell much. Following his lead, a group of pranksters set up their own shop selling fake Banksys, making it perfectly clear they were fake, and managed to sell out...Proving the value of hype? Questioning the art world? Showing the name is bigger than the art? What do you think this proves about the art world today?
