Yeah, it’s been a few days, I’m going to blame a second round exit, and never ending house chores on keeping me off the keyboard. I wanted to share a trailer, an extended one at that, for a movie that I’m really looking quite forward to. It’s Exit Through the Gift Shop, and profiles Banksy. For those of you who don’t know who Banksy is, some would call him an artist, some a vandal, some socially relevant, others a mere miscreant. He’s a graffiti artist, but not the kind like those 13 year old boys in your neighborhood that run around tagging shit, or writing ‘Dave wuz here’. He literally puts things up that make you stop, and think, shit, that looks kinda cool. He’s also a little bit of a ‘guerrilla artist’, he’s put up fake pieces in some of the worlds most famous museums and galleries.
This trailer showcases him, it’s a sort of documentary, infotainment in the truest sense of the word. It’ll undoubtedly make the very unknown Banksy very popular, and a shit load of money. Enjoy.
On a side note, I’d love it if Banksy ‘attacked’ the corner shop wall near my house.
It‘s quite in here! Why not leave a response?
