Lowbrow "art". Par for the course, I guess. Banksy is "art" for retarded plebes who want to feel edgy.

I like him. He does things that are different. He puts some thought into it....and this is coming from someone who knows a lot of train painters who hate street art and think Banksy is garbage

That tag was done in 2006. In 2009 it was vandalized, & was unable to be cleaned. Banksy is awesome in my opinion

Blek le Rat is indeed awesome too...

"People say he (Banksy) copies me, but I don't think so. I'm the old man, he's the new kid, and if I'm an inspiration to an artist that good, I love it. I feel what he is doing in London is similar to the rock movement in the Sixties." -Blek le Rat

"Every time I think I've painted something slightly original, I find out that Blek le Rat has done it as well, only twenty years earlier." -Banksy

I watched the doc on HBO about him. he did this one out of stones looking like a pyramid. All these people were there getting a photo and this truck pulls up with some black guys who walk over and move it all into the truck so they could sell it. Everyone was scared shitless to say anything to them.

Banksy is upper middle class myopic who pretends to be rebel.

tommywishbone · « **Reply #16 on:** June 08, 2015, 02:03:59 PM »

His best effort, IMO. I like it.

Banksy should be polygraphed about King Robbo mysterious dead .....................

Banksy's Thrift Shop Painting Sells For More Than $600,000 At Charity Auction

A Banksy-doctored painting sold at an online auction for $615,000.

It was dropped off at a Housing Works thrift shop near Gramercy Park in New York City. The woman who dropped it off said that the painting was of value and that someone would be contacting them shortly, according to the Housing Works organization. So much for an ordinary transaction.

The simple oil painting, titled “The Banality Of The Banality of Evil,” was stripped of its human figure, and now has a Nazi figure painted on, plus the Banksy signature. It is featured on the artist’s website which chronicles his month-long street-art spree all over New York. The original painting was purchased two months ago from the very same thrift shop.

In a thrifty move, Banksy’s people contacted Housing Works, a non-for-profit organization which gives support to HIV/AIDS patients, to authenticate the work and to request that it be auctioned. And as swiftly as Banksy can put up his work, Bidding for Good put the painting up for sale on its online site Tuesday evening. The bidding opened up at $74,000, said the online charity, and closed yesterday at 8pm. After 138 bids, final sale was close to more than half a million dollars. Not bad for a day’s work.

Typical lowbrow, milquetoast social commentary. Banksy always goes after the lowest-hanging fruit, and appeals to the lowest common denominator. He makes art for bored housewives. Art that the unintelligent find easy to understand.
