Was anyone else really impressed with Banksy's latest stunt/artwork/whatever you'd like to call it?

Let me start by saying I'm not a big art fan, I'm a simple guy and I guess that's why I love Banksy's stuff. It usually requires little thought to work out its meaning but often conveys a stong meaning in a really creative (but simple) way. I guess the fact that he's tagged with phrases such as vandal and that he is still unknown to the public adds to the mistique. I love that stuff.

I don't even know how well known Banksy is in the US, I presume he's made a little mark, at least in NY anyway, with his latest stunt. Unfortunately I don't have a link as I saw it on the news before work this morning, but I do urge you to Google him if he's new to you.

So die all who betray Giuliano

You guys really know how to hurt someone's feelings. But I haven't given up on your lost souls yet. Maybe some visual aid will help, just a quick 3 minute video: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7662627.stm

Cool!




He - (Simón Bolívar) - was shaken by the overwhelming revelation that the headlong race between his misfortunes and his dreams was at that moment reaching the finishing line. The rest was darkness. "Damn it," He sighed. "How will I ever get out of this labyrinth!"

So what’s the labyrinth?

That’s the mystery isn’t it? Is the labyrinth living or dying? Which is he trying to escape - the world, or, the end of it?

Brilliant, that's all the humouring I was looking for. Have a meatball Santino.

Interesting Turi. Reminds me of Gary Larson type observations on life. Shakes the cortex. A little slap of reality through the other end of the telescope. Good stuff.

That was very interesting although the strangest critter on display has to be Monte, the cleaning guy. It's a clever display.

Okay, those "baby hot dogs" were a bit disturbing...


I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Banksy recently came to my city and left some art behind to be discovered. I spotted this one on a bridge near my house. Pretty cool!


You talkin' to me?
