anyone see anything about this movie exit through the gift shop? i think it looks pretty cool hope i can see it

banksy is a fine art faggot with no street cred lol... ill probably download it but id never pay money to see that shit, i dont have any respect for banksy, i think he got into 'street art' to get 'street cred' and it fuckin backfired cuz he thinks hes above real graffiti writers... case and point http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/arti...i-artists.html
when my shit gets crossed out i go back and cross out that person, i dont take the whole fuckin wall and get my 'art restored' so i can sell it to a gallery for god knows how much lol

yeah i know what you mean, its kinda weird i read something that says when he does art on something the property value goes up i dont think he should be classified as a graff artist anymore, but i kinda like his work, and since its an independant film i cant find this thing anywhere man

[zennegen]

the movie isn't out yet... and banksy, as an artist, i think should be respected. as a street artist, he is a sell out, but the ***** if fucking famous because he put work in. personally i respect the dude as a whole, and i can appreciate his work.

came out in a few places on the 23rd comes out in atlanta (in a select theater) on the 30th
heres the link if you want to see it

ive always apreciated street art, not that there any better than graff artists. some of it has a message and requires more than just paint, might get into it one day but id never want to have my art restored just because a few people tagged over it. id go back and fix it myself if i cared that much about it.

[zennegen]

it's just because his painting sell for like millions of dollars, man. everybody wants their hands on a banky piece one way or another..

[Zookyook]

yea brad and angelina jolie spend like 200 grand at one of his shows.... hes not a graffiti artist in my opinion... i do like where his ideas come from but basically he IS the 'punk' putting together some shit from IKEA lol, im sure hes got a huge house and nothing to worry about... pretty much the same deal with obey, their work makes sense and its cool and all, but u know they dont practice what they preach (anti-capitalism) because theyre fucking both rich

[zennegen]

doggy, you need to understand that at one point, they did practice that, or condoned of it or whatever, but now they have money because of the work they've put in. why be broke when you can make a living doing what you love? that's what it's all about, man.

[zennegen]

banksy=exponentially better than you... so you're a joke too, right? according to your logic.

[markingz.]

banksy's good but no where close to as good as the public portrays him to be, why do you like him so much hes a stencil freak, i personally dont give a fuck about stencils homie stencils are lame in my book

i like stencils but thats my opinion

[weakfingers]

As much as I dislike the idea of "street art" Its pretty cool to see in the right inviorment, I feel more and more art fags are getting into it for lame art fame but I think street art is cool if poeple are doing it for personal fufilment, and not to be the next banksy, Banksy dident start out knowing he was gonna be well... banksy he started out ina time where street art wasent popular and he wasent getting any fame it just grew over time. Read books, study artist befor you flame them. The dudes done some big things. I hate the wanna be street art fags coming to graffiti spots and spraying there weird stencils but people who are out there doing it for the right reasons i can respect.

If youve been to one of his shows its way more then sticils, its oil accrylic skulpture etc etc etc its a breath of fresh air to see good street are in my opinion. In toronto osme guy has been wheat pasting lifesized homeless people everywhere looks pretty cool imo

if i ever got into street art itd be the same reason i did for graffiti its fun and exciting.

[zaco]
