What I like about Banksy the most is that if you were to show his stuff to someone who doesn't like graffiti, they will probably like Banksy, which opens the door to them liking other graf.. It's good to use him to convert people.

 

yeah its called 'banging your head against a brick wall' got it for christmas very nice little book. i agree complteley even my parents like his stuff (that says alot).

I tried to get him to elaborate on his process of making stencils, materials, weither he uses computers, what kind cutting process, ect....but, as can be expected of any artist that basically has a monopoly on one of the coolest things out there, they aren't very willing to give that kind of stuff up. I have been working on and off with stencils, but most are no more that pages, or double page sizes. They warp, or the plastic is too thin. I also am not the best at running around town with a paint soaked stencil...it just isn't as quick and easy as I thought it would be, but still....i would love to be able to get better at it. If anyone has really good info on making stencils....let me know...I am going to make a stencil thread in the yard...

much respect to banksy...

MAN Banksy fucking rocks!

 

His stuff is so original and funny... I love the one with the little girl hugging the bomb.... there is another really good one which is a picture of the queen with a monkey's face... i'll post it sometime.

 

i havent got a flick of it but he did some stuff in Regents Park Zoo... in the penguin enclosure saying shit like... "I want out" and "I'm bored with fish" in animal writing... it's funny shit man!

I was @ Barnes&Noble flippin thry some artsy fartsy oversized mag (forget which one) and there was a Banksy interview inside. Pretty funny. But the cool part was that it came with a stencil! I didn't buy it (I should've stolen it) but it was of this lil rat (lifesize) holding up a radio satellite attena thing.. good stuff.
