Banksy looks a lot less cool than I had hoped he would look

Mickey_ · 10-21-2014, 03:58 AM

It was a hoax, he wasn't arrested.

MrTrollkien · 10-21-2014, 04:00 AM

It has been mentioned, but I cant get over how much money was spent by the police on overtime payments to catch a grafitti/street artist.
Surely the money could have been better spent in other policing pursuits?
It seems a high profile collar of a person who defaces buildings is more important than organised crime, terrorism, murder and rape.
Well done police. Well done.

You sure ?

"Police apprehended the famous street artist while in the middle of finishing a piece about a mascot for a Christian organization named Fappy The Anti-Masturbation Dolphin.
?I?m just happy to be a part of this whole thing,? Fappy told CNN. ?I?m not familiar with this Banksy character, honestly if it?s not in the Bible I probably haven?t heard of it, but if this arrest spreads awareness of the harmful effects of self-rape, then that is a good thing. Hopefully news of this ordeal will bring the much needed attention to the dangers and consequences of playing with your sin stick or ringing the Devil?s doorbell. Hopefully, God willing, one day, masturbation will be illegal and people will finally be free of playing on the Devil?s playground.

On a related note, it's interesting how much easier media hacking/PR stunts have become with the proliferation of blogs and social media.

Step 1: mislead a highly trusted (and followed) publisher
Step 2: watch as they post article based on the false information
Step 3: watch as tens of thousands of others copy and the news go viral over social media
Step 4: profit

As a matter of fact, I'd venture to guess this may have been engineered by Banksy and/or his team (if there is one).

NationalReport is like the Onion except their parody statement might not be so obvious, or just that their rep isn't made yet...

Define "stuff"?

DamianJ · 10-22-2014, 11:30 AM

A) obvious hoax

b) He's a cunt that stole 90% of his ideas

He stole his techniques, his ideas, everything. From someone who started doing it in 1981.

Banksy is a biter.

xanadu · 10-22-2014, 12:02 PM

didnt know about Le Rat, interesting....

Copy in art is a really long discussion though(...)

Saw the movie "exit through the gift shop recently" and liked it a lot.

Not much of a discussion in this case. Le Rat did it first in Paris. Banksy totally stole his technique and style.

I love all the little fanboys thinking Banksy is some social hero when he is just a little pirate cunt.

_Richard_ · 10-23-2014, 01:40 PM

how many would know of Le Rat without Banksy?

Seems all the Banksy fans here had never heard of him. They've gone awfully quiet.

But, despite that, are you suggesting it's cool for Banksy to nick the style and technique of another artist because Banksy made people more aware of the person he stole from?

That's pretty bonkers isn't it?

it's a type of graffiti that has been 'copied' several times by several artists all over the world. to say banksy 'stole' this is almost like saying Shakespeare 'stole' the premise of his stories..

i don't think Blek Le Rat ever entirely switched albums to make social statements, or did any of the other artwork that is so incredible to banksy? correct me if i am wrong

but hey, art right?
