Re: street art, where do you stand on the current Banksy-is-a-posh-boy controversy?

Oh, and welcome back, honeybunch.

It was indeed truly wonderful, as the photos reflect. Thanks for holding my hand! Have given you a link from my adobe.

As for posho Banksy... it doesn't really surprise me that much. And doesn't diminish his work in the slightest in my eyes.

Nice selection of art. All we get round here are paintings of genitalia.

Tim, thanks, pumpkin. Currently without broadband and feeling a bit cut off - so Bansky is posh hey? I guess we all knew that... I still love him.


Del, no no, thank YOU (especially for reading the map, those boy scout skills came in handy.)

Llewtrah, there'll always be a place for genitalia on city walls...

Loving the pics Miss S. If you can bear to ready it there is a particularly crap piece about it here:

That makes me sad. Look:

I couldn't care less if Banksy is posh. Whoever he is he makes us all sit up and look at stuff again.

Del said...

I agree, La Bête. That was a very powerful statement to see.

Annie said...

Thanks, RoMo. Ah, the Daily Mail's inimitable reportage...

Hi Bête. It's an honour to see you here, your blog is brilliant. You bastard. Sorry I made you sad.

Hi, Problemchildbride, great name! Well, my thoughts exactly. My favouritist was the huge ONE NATION UNDER CCTV carried out in Central London under the very noses of the cameras.

Del, right. There's an art to graffitti, it seems simple but then what would you write in one phrase given the choice?
