Banksy really inspired me as an artist when he mentioned how his art is a response in a world where we get inundated with ads and announcements without our consent, but usually don’t have the opportunity to reply. It’s a refreshing way to look at what we are forced to see every day on the streets…the same streets it’s illegal if we put our art/messages on.
Well except for the fact this was an Ad for the museums he was payed by to do. You don't think they just blurred his face because they had to "legally" or something do you? Nobody else's faces were blurred, but if his wasn't, the mystery would be shattered and the museums couldn't profit off of it
So rather responding to the evil or injustice or the love that immediate people or your life experience shows you, you watch a crap tv documentary buy a T-shirt and think I’ll do that. 😂😂😂😢. We are doomed
Banksy is a graff writer who stencils and hides from the public. Cities protect his art but go over true graff in the street to preserve his shit 4 sec piece that took no skill to produce.

People fuck highly valuable art works up all the time in galleries Sometimes by accident, sometimes as a performance, sometimes as protest. You can't have a guard next to every work and you can't put barriers around everything.
All things aside, incidents like this should have the security guards fired without notice. Same with the ones who fail to prevent the so called "Klimakleber" gluing themselves or spilling things on art pieces.
Truth is security guards are usually walking through museums, but are not watching every guest all the time. For priceless art they have sensors and glass to protect them, but often it’s just good faith and insurance
@@spelcheak more valuable than me probably. But there are other more valuable people who will rewrite the books we destroy, and paint new beautiful paintings to fill up art halls.

That must be why I was trained to check all workers ID tags when I was a national gallery guard in Canada lol Occasionally technicians did pop up to remove or put up pieces
It's been confirmed that banksy is one man. His identity isn't public, but several other artists know who he is. There ARE other artists that have helped him pull these things off, but the art itself is his and his alone.
@@casemods not sure, it was at the palace of fine arts a little over a year ago. Wasn't really planned, just saw the Banksy sign and had to check it out. After I exited through the gift shop, there was an older guy dressed like a worker that told my young daughter she would be a future artist. My wife and I always joke that he was actually Banksy.
There's no way the museums weren't in on the stunt. The curators at the museums know every single peice of art in the museum. Even if security didn't notice (which is almost impossible) the curators would immediately notice. It's like breaking into someones house and changing the furniture in their living room and expecting them not to know. Its absurd. Just a publicity stunt

And now that Banksy had Robbo out of the way look how quick he shot up in rank in the art world, I mean it was Robbo who had the spotlight not Banksy before Robbo was murdered.

I am more interested in seeing this guy's art than anything else in the museums
Banksy art all started in Bristol years before he started to become famous. Its crazy how famous he has become all because of graffiti he started from.
The greatest known graffiti artist ever . One of the key players in the whole street art movement of which we see so much of today . It’s dope to see how graf has changed . Respect, one 👊🏼🙏🏼🤘🏼
I'm surprised none of the guards yelled at him for touching paintings when he was attaching them to the wall. lol
If only they kept the art up as they are now worth millions.
And thats why banksy is just brilliant
I walk around all the time with a T-shirt of a Banksy design and no one ever notices it
Banksy is amazing! I'm surprised they didn't talk about Banksy notes
I love his Massive Attack on the Art galleries
The fact that the painting of a woman wearing a gas mask was immediately spotted, but the cans stayed up for days should show you that "what is art?" Has killed art
This reminds me of the episode on icarly where Spencer puts his artwork in a museum so he can prove to his granddad his artwork made it and wouldn’t have to go back to law school
Makes art fun! 🤘
The point that his art wasn't good enough to be on the walls, until they learned the name of the maker.
It's not harming anyone or anything, just a genius prank with no harmful affect
I kind of like this. It is so much better than people who vandalize art.
The funny thing is, if his “fakes” get enough notoriety they’ll become desirable and worth lots of money. This is a great way to market your art.
It should remain a permanent feature imho
This is what a lot of people don't get about art, it's not the art that is worth anything, it's the name.
The man lost the battle against the rich and elite on what was considered artwork but won the war on public opinion of what is art just brilliant
I live in Bristol the home of banksy, after seeing his graffiti over and over and over and over and over it just becomes another piece of graffiti.
