Street Art Wars of the Day: 1) Legendary graffiti pioneer Robbo’s Regents Canal piece, 1985-2009. 2) Banksy’s decorator goes over Rob. 3) King Robbo’s “Banksy Bitch Slap” strikes back with quickness on Christmas Day.
From Graffoto:
There is more to the beef than appears at first glance,. In the 2009 book “London Handstyles”, there is a story from Robbo: ‘I was out one night with a load of old writers and got introduced to Banksy. He asked what I wrote and I told him, he cockily replied ”never heard of you” so I slapped him and said, ”you may not of heard of me but you will never forget me”. The truth in the story is evident in Banky’s very pointed taking out of Robbo’s piece, there no mere accident in the placing of Banksy’s decorator.
The riposte from Robbo has been swift and classy. “you use my piece in your shit, I’ll use your shit in mine”.
My guess: This ain’t over.
