Street Art of the Day

Street Art of the Day: Banksy is still in LA, keeping busy by replacing his defaced artwork with a few new pieces just confirmed on the artist’s official website.

More after the cut:

“Kite”

Bonus: Banksy tags The Simpsons‘ Oscar episode.

    meh.

    So he’s replacing his defaced ‘artwork’ by defacing more public property. Dick.

  • Nope

    When banksy does it it’s art! When you do it it’s vandalism. Learn your place, knave.

  • Rizz Rustbolt

    Nah, he calls it vandalism too.

  • Patient

    So he’s a celebrated vandal. A celebandal, thus.

  • Sean

    Just like most modern art. People are upset that they didn’t think of it first.

    I’m gonna be the douche who gets called out for saying this, but it really deserves to be said. I’m tired of this blog becoming The Daily Banksy and The Daily Bieber. They’re both over-hyped and, frankly, rather boring. Not only that, but Banksy is a celebrated criminal. A celebrated criminal who’s too much of a coward to accept blame for his crimes. Shame about that society nowadays.

  • cheerio

    Personally, I wish more graffiti was like Banksy’s…

  • frankie

    You were right about the douche part.

  • wanksy

    The only douche here is Banksy himself. An overrated, hipster vandal whose “fame” comes from defacing other people’s private property. I sincerely hope this asshole spends time behind bars one day for his crap.

    P.S. Yes I’ve heard Arcade Fire. They suck.

    P.P.S. Get off my lawn

  • qwerty

    this guy is a legend,he found a way to express his thought and remaining anonymous.
    if you hate on him,Im sorry but you are a retarded middle class guy.

  • me

    haha!

  • Warren

    Hey!

    I’d be offended, but calling me middle class was about the nicest compliment I’ve gotten today!

  • Sean

    I admit that Banksy’s film “Exit Through the Gift Shop” whether a hoax or not shows exactly why people flock to his shows and pay through the nose for his “work”, yet like most art, a homeless child that just robbed Home Depot could do this crap. Some of it is funny, some is political, but he found his niche long ago when after tagging some wall in London the public was all hot and bothered. But he is famous and when famous people do things it is considered edgy, art, acceptable.

    A note on “artists”: Famed Poet William S. Burroughs shot his girlfriend through the head in an evident game of William Tell, killing her. If it had been anyone not of noted celebrity, “Naked Lunch” probably wouldn’t have happened because he would be in jail. When Banksy “reveals” himself and he will when the public finally tires of him, authorities will give him a free pass for his “art”.
