lol i was pretty drunk when i wrote that i do like his stuff i just find it absolutely riduculous that there are better writers out there and no one calls that art and buys a wall that its on its just vandalism

look at people like insa aztek pryme etc all amazing 3d writers that actually design there own shit and spend hours painting it essentially stencils are a peice of piss to make and dont take long to put up

at the end of the day if i was banksy an people were offering me that amount of money i would standardly take it

it just confuses me why people make such a fuss and overlook so many other dope writers

the bloke who owns the building we rent an office in has another building in notts.. its called the oldknows factory.. and its been converted to a nu age office style block for artists and stuff..

he lets them paint on a wall outside, its AMAZING..

i agree too, banky is good but there are so many good artists that need respect too!

there are a lot of alley ways in the area around my office and writers are free to have at it. Some pretty good work. We also have an annual graf festival in the area and it's pretty cool to see guys in the middle of the day practicing their art.

yes , the proper graff artists are overlooked. but banksy is one of the only great stencil painters around.
his work is political and spot on to the world around us.

RE: Banksy - Sooper - 26-10-07

Have to agree Mr.S, Banksy has some excellent ideas and i think his stencil format works really well. I love his thought provoking work.

Couldn't have put it better.

Dialekt, I don't think you could really call Banksy a writer to be honest and I doubt he'd call himself one. He's a stencil artist so comparing him to more traditional graff artists is a bit pointless really if you ask me, can see your point though as I am a lover of graff

Any more info on your jam? I'm sure there's a few heads on here who'd like to hear more
