but i should say 'aren't we all' and be done with it. i don't want war. i want love. you're right. you were right all along. this banksy man, probably some twat. what we really want is you. inside us. |

oh wait, i've had my final word. the rest is just fluffer |

Yeah, no fair. You claimed your final word posts ago! Look, I think Bansky cam be subversively clever at times. However, he's over saturated to the point of cancelling one's self out. We see so many times in the world if you go too far in one direction, you're bound to come out on the opposite end. That's all saying is going on with Mr. Banksy. Rather than be told what is hot or what is interesting, I just wish people would go out and find these things for themself. It is that reason why I dont think Banksy serves a great purpose anymore. It's like going to Starbucks and saying you're progressive, or subversive, or "indie" because you're a fan of Arcade Fire (who I like, who many people like, but in the big spectrum is still a relatively unknown band). It's not a pissing contest, it's not about posturing, it's just that the Juxtapoz art market is moving forward with little self-criticism or work whose content actually addresses or reflects this phenomenon. |

I'd like to see you all be friendly with each other :D It's paint on a wall. It resembles something. Some people like it ,some people don't. Relax... I don't really think it's a big deal, but there are thing's I do think is a big deal that I'm sure most of you won't. Relax... chill... For the record, gl0tch is a really cool guy :D Stop fighting ! |

Yeah, I don't even care really, it's just weird to me how people like actually seem to hate this dude who is basically a pretty decent graffiti prankster from the best I can tell. |

what age are you? |
||||||||
|
|

|

For you, why does it matter? (though I've often wondered the same thing about people here) |
||||||||
|

|
|
Is there anything about his actual pieces that you dislike, or is it just the fact that the unwashed masses have taken a liking to it that sickens you? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
gl0tch i think maybe you have issues |

i am cool with banksy i never heard of him until he painted on the israeli occupation wall, i thought it was neat. |

Personally I find the messages in his stuff thats supposed to be making comments on society to be a bit too in your face. I cant doubt the guys skill though and pieces like the one in this thread are fucking great. |

A) Regarding his artwork, it's both. I liked the paintings he did on thrift-store style landscape paintings b/c it gave his work an art historical context. As far as being "sickened" by the unwashed masses, it's like running into some guido club kid who thinks Trance music is the most complex and progressive electronic music ever made. It's not. B) As far as my age, I'm FAR from 15yrs old. C) Where some of you may suggest I have issues, I seriously think it might be best for some of you to develop some real issues in order jump start your brains. |

Are you sure you didnt start off that way to begin with, and it was my posts that just enlightened you to the fact? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Regarding A, who cares if it's a guido kid or not though, you should be addressing why you think trance isn't good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Note, I didnt say I didnt like it, rather I suggested it wasnt the most complex or progressive electronic music out there. |

Couldn't you chaps meet up and have some fisticuffs in a car park to settle this? |

Let's put things in perspective, Banksy's art is often clever and thought provoking. Like all artists he wants to communicate his work to as many people as possible. He also has to make a living, put food on the table. Artists make a living by selling their work - ALL ARTISTS. It's not his fault his work gets hyped up or that his art is in vogue, and no matter how much money he makes out of his art that can never subtract from the intellectual worth of the art itself. When you start putting a value on art or saying this art is better than that art, you have started to crawl up your own arse. None of that is Banksy's fault. He just puts it out there and earns from it. |
