Commentary Toward Books Wall and Piece

Banksy, Britain's now-legendary "guerilla" street artist, has painted the walls, streets, and bridges of towns and cities throughout the world. Not only did he smuggle his pieces into four of New York City's major art museums, he's also "hung" his work at London's Tate Gallery and adorned Israel's West Bank barrier with satirical images. Banksy's identity remains unknown, but his work is unmistakable with prints selling for as much as $45,000.

Comment On Appertaining To Books Wall and Piece

In 2003, Banksy donated one of his artworks to the Tate Gallery in London. The thing is, the Tate Gallery hadn't actually asked for anything of his. He just walked in (or had a friend walk in, or had a member of the collective walk in--Banksy's true identity is uncertain) and stuck it to the wall. This is just the kind of appalling disrespect that I think the world needs more of.Over the next couple of years, he made similar donations to the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York,

Earlier this week Banksy's Devolved Parliament was sold for £9.9M. I am sure Banksy's haters wouldn't be too happy about it (ask their partners what they did that night :P) and Banksy would be having a hell of a laughter over this. My friend, a fellow Banksy lover, commented "If you show people some (exquisite) meaning in what you do, they'll resort immediately to revaluing the entire thing in terms of money"But of course this time he was talking about the strip club they went to, in the summer.

Disclaimer: Haters are not cool. I'm not 'hating' Banksy because it's the hipster thing to do (go grab an art school undergrad, you'll see what I mean). One problem with reviewing solo-artist art book is that you can't avoid talking about the actual artist, so here it is. I can't even be bothered to write about graphics. I mean, surely you're only considering buying this book because of the guy not the pretty layout right?

I loved this. Particularly this

During my studies at the Law school, I came across this poetic expression in a boring document about the administrative decentralization in the EU: The world is like your home, except that it has few more walls.. To me, the essence of Banksy's art incarnates this quote for it is humanistic and internationalist.Banksy is an English artist from Bristol and thats all we know.He remains anonymous and is still hiding his real identity, like the awesome guys from the Daft Punk. He is internationally

Thought provoking and powerful - a tour de force of the absurdity that has become institutionalized in our modern world.
