How do they remove and sell Banksy art work

Can some one tell me?  Am I right in assuming they cut the art work out of which ever section of wall he has painted on and sell the wall?


In the case of this grade II building in Cheltnam, they will cut a hole in the grade II building and restore that section?

Naive question: how does Banksy make money off its artwork when it is sold/auctioned, if the artist is anonymous?

Well the other thing that crossed my mind, is how does he make money if he has painted on someone elses wall?  And why just because its Banksy is it ok to do it?  Isnt making money from illegal means forbidden?

banksy does not get any money from those pieces, these are gifts to the city, to the people, it's then the owner of the wall who decides to make business; all the t-shirts, the mugs, the postcards, that contain an image from banksy.. he gets none of it, you can print his stuff on your own merchandising and sell it in a market, as it has no copyright there are no copyrights to claim


i guess he doesn't need and care much about money, and when it comes to that i guess he just gets a couple of paintings to a gallery or prints a large edition for fans


and i'm sure everybody invites him for lunch, so one thing less to worry about (though it's more likely that he'd end up paying the bill)
