what are you on about?
what is "controvesial" about switching a few cd's?
his target is still Paris Hilton and the people who buy her crap. to me that's a pretty easy and obvious target.

you might not find it controversial, but it's more controversial than random celebrity X saying something defamatory about celebrity Y on radio or tv.

You don't honestly think that trying to link disneyland and guantanamo makes any kind of real sense? Woahhhh, like, the Hegemonic West and Their Evil Deeds, cor, that's right subversive that is. Broad strokes are one thing, but come on.
And the questions he "asks of paris" in the sleeve are exactly the same questions you could ask of any artist. Or anyone, in fact. Utter pointlessness.
hey redrum let's talk art it will be great and fun and not excruciating at all

you've missed the point too... he's not linking disneyland to guantanamo now, is he?
maybe try thinking about it in the respect of what disneyworld is (a land of artificial make-believe on earth) and what guantanamo is.

that wasnt specifically to you, but its just that to me it comes across really snobby and possibly missing the point when people take jabs at stuff like this
at least what i think anyway is that 'art' like this, if you want to call it, is not about sitting at your computer reading about it and thinking 'how very trite', its about the person in hmv who does the double take and then laughs, i think thats worth something. although i do see your point about him using really obvious juxtaposition all the time but they have a certain impact when you see them in the street so i like it i guess, or something

Why not lower your expectations to such a level that you go round laughing at dog turds and going "Cor, what the fuck's that all about??!?!!? Bloody hell, there's another!"
You might think "provoking a reaction", no matter how tame, is justification enough, which is ok, that's a valid point of view. However I think 99.9% of crappy culural endeavours are only redeemed by the fact you can't point at their fatuous creators and make snidey comments about them. And I really wouldn't worry about poor old Banksy, or indeed any artist, because for every one wanker that makes a bit of foul languaged criticism, there's a thousand people ready to go "Wow, wicked work mate, cool" "Hahah. LOL" etc.

Don't come the "maybe try thinking" with me, you patronizing fuck. Spell it out, you know you want to. You think he's playing with ideas of the american reality, moral blindness, "the veneer"? Or am i still too thick to get it? How about you look at this stunt in the context of his other work for a minute, he's a cheap shock merchant, and not even a good one. But fair play to the guy, i'm sure it's helping his book sales.
