'people seem to think banksy has all of a sudden sold out. But he was a sell out from day one remember the little stocking filler books from waterstones or the Blur album cover'
Which is a good point to remember, it just feels alot more ubiquitous now, so with that in mind I'm not going to bitch about that, but try to simply critique the image.
It's another 'kiddie' reflection on our society, which just feels dull to me. Maybe the moaning pads my critiques out a bit? Maybe it's the greyness in the characters, or that it feels like I've seen them alot recently but it just doesn't grab the attention. Yes foreclosure is a serious issue, does this really address it? Or does it make light of it? What the fuck is the point I'm making? Possibly that the joke's not funny, it's not hitting the right note and it's just not that good.
It's one of the better ones from the latest batch but that isn't saying much. And it feels hollow coming from a millionaire who has little to fear of foreclosure.
ReplyDeleteIt's just another busman's holiday or more appropriately an ego trip as he waits for an awards ceremony and the validation of the establishment he craves.
A technical issue exists too as the girl looks like she's stood closer towards the viewer so what is she staring at as it surely isn't the workman?
I wish people would stop mistaking this kind of thing for street art. 'Banksy' is a company that does outdoor advertising.
ReplyDeleteIt's really quite embarrassing to watch adults fawn over such childish marketing. The fanboys must have a wank when the commercial break comes on during kids TV and they get to see all those cartoonish adverts.
Banksy fans are grown men who still play with train sets and wear adult nappies.
ReplyDeleteI can confirm that is true....lol
ReplyDeletethe girl is staring at the big fucking tiger she drew out of shot to the left, the one that is about to rip the dudes head off
ReplyDeleteor at least, if Banksy still had any good ideas she would be...
fuck the cunting kiddies.
ReplyDeleteBanksy does seem to have a rather unhealthy interest in children.
ReplyDeletewith all the shit street art out there right now including Graffiti, this is actually good.
