Is anybody going to objectively look at the possibility that this isn't Banksy?
It could be him... it is Banksy-like, but it just doesn't seem quite like him. I am thinking it's a bit too colorful and too pop. Has he claimed any of this as his yet?
Did he discontinue his rats? Is he really going with American popular icons like Mickey and Minnie Mouse??? That seems more like Mr. Brainwash (I'm not him.)

No I'm not the actual idiot from the documentary. But I thought that these could be brainwash. They are close enough to Banksy's style, but they are too colorful (fruity) and based on pop culture icons... That's right in line with Mr. Brainwash (i.e. Elvis with the M16)
Of course, that's the ultimate criticism for Banksy. That he created this zombie Mr. Brainwash who has really brought down the art form a few notches. If it really is Banksy, then I'm not digging his style at the moment.

i agree. although, for him to change it up and make you question it, could be part of banksy genius.
by creating a fervor of rumors and lies, while posting art all over the world, he becomes a piece of folklore.

I hadn't thought of that really. But it could be, after all it's on his site so it must be him. I'm not digg'n it though.

Mr_Brainwash:
haha for sure. Banksy's line from the end of the doc says it all 'I used to tell everyone to go make art... i don't really do that anymore' It's the old Frankenstein paradigm. -cheers

The oscars are worried about banksy coming because they don't know what he looks like and think some one is just gonna waltz up and take it, or he will get it in his infamous monkey mask which they worry is not classy enough for the oscars.
Some people need to get a sense of humor and calm down for a night, especially if you invite fucking Banksy - 1 year ago
