Nysuatro Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 For those who don't know him but probably will recognise his work ... http://www.banksy.co.uk/ His work is really incredible. he has been a really great inspiration for a mod I am working on To bad they are removing his artwork because it's illegal in Londen and I guess everywhere ...

Minos Posted November 10, 2009 Report Posted November 10, 2009 The graffiti he did on the Israel-Palestine wall is totally rad =) Quote
Duff-e Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/2009/10/04/129-banksy/ had to do it. it's the most recent one Quote
skdr Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 To bad they are removing his artwork because it's illegal in Londen and I guess everywhere ... Uh, that's hard to believe. He's like a national artist there, hard to believe that they're wiping away all his work. Got source? Quote
e-freak Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 no it's actually true. to the law tagging is always the same. however they try to save them as often as possible and bring them to museums. Quote
FrieChamp Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 no it's actually true. to the law tagging is always the same. however they try to save them as often as possible and bring them to museums. ...before somebody else chizzles them off the wall to sell them. Quote
Steppenwolf Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 Not a fan his. Way too overhyped pop phenomenon. The Brittney Spears of fine art. Quote

Rick_D Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 he guys there's also this new thing called betamax, you should check it out. Quote
Jenn0_Bing Posted November 11, 2009 Report Posted November 11, 2009 To bad they are removing his artwork because it's illegal in London and I guess everywhere ... It's not quite as cut and dry as that. It's really down to who's item he's graffitied. A lot of his pieces on private property are kept now because they put the price up, but most pieces on public property are removed apart form some rare cases. I went to see his show in Bristol this summer, 3 hour queue to get in but it was well worth it. Quote

Hes just one of many many street artists after all. And you think he wanted that? he spreaded a message while he stayed anonymous. But your right about 'there are many other street artists'. But its great that he gets some attention ... he deserves it. Quote
