What Banksy says about advertising is interesting; what he says about modern art seems to say more about him than modern art--which I suppose shouldn't be surprising from a provocateur. What does Banksy expect art to say? What does Beethoven say? To me it seems all sound and fury signifying nothing--but what sound, and what fury.
But your blog shows good evidence that he's at least partially right about advertising; and some advertising can rightly be called art.
awesome where did you find this?
ReplyDeletelast line do you think he's referring to advertising or modern art?
Found it on a UT ad blog. I think the last line refers to advertising.
