Schnitzel 954 Posted August 24, 2015 I would go and see this - it's not exactly my cup of tea but it would bea thign to take the girlfriend to. Kudos on the effort I say Jimmy Cauty's work looks interesting. Believe he was one of the guys that burnt a1 million pounds on a beach on a Scottish island. fucking stupid thing to do but I guess it was art. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ko SprueOne 305 Posted August 24, 2015 Installation statement art big enough to be a theme park which can explain the statement. I'd check this out if I had the spare monedas and time. Chris Burden (RIP) would be interested Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One Man Banned 5,814 Posted August 24, 2015 I liked him before it was cool to like him. Does that make me cool? I think not. In other news, what is this lasagne they speak of? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
simon sandleshit 214 Posted August 24, 2015 i thought this statements made with the art were spot on, i saw some sort of video on it. showed a little more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Donald Chump 25 Posted August 25, 2015 Yeah, I questioned the Banksy hate on here a few usernames back, hell, I'll even go as far as to say that I like street art in general. A lot of it is people trying too hard and being and wankers but some of it's cool...., reminds me of graffiti, to be honest. I'd check this out, be worth an afternoon cruising around and having a bit of a squiz. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 25, 2015 I don't like him or really care about him if Banksy is even a single person... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theprotester 1,000 Posted August 25, 2015 I enjoy the hatred, because at some level I'm sure he wishes he was accepted by the illegal graffiti world. Then again, dude got up on the Simpsons, so who's the real winner. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
