Banksy - UK OOT TALK TO ME
So for those not in the know Banksy is considered a legend in the UK. A sort of US-Andy Warhol clouded in mystery. I have been familiar with his work since last year but Esquire got me thinking a little more about him (regarding the article the last two paragraphs are THE WORST!!).
For those UK OOT'rs, I would be interested in your thoughts on a man some consider a legend and has received a sort of rockstar status. Bansky.co.uk Here is some of his guerilla graffiti: |

He is really quite famous.
He has been derided for basically being a good self-publicist, althought this allegation could be made at most modern British artists. I like his work, it has a nice sense of fun & humour |

I'm not from the UK, but I love Banksy. I think he is a genius.
Banksy putting up his art in museums on his own West Bank graffiti project You should check out the west bank stuff on his site. Beautiful imagery and some amazing stories. He has a good sense of humor and he's pretty bold with the placement of his artwork. |
