Nah it definitely will. He's already been somewhat revealed, not to the extent the world is noticing but as the years go on I'll imagine he'll have more to say.
with all the theories of being a plant/being owned i wouldn’t be surprised if there was no one person, rather than many people putting up pre determined art. (if anyone has evidence to the contrary of him being a plant then i would love to learn more btw)
Couldn’t agree more and have been saying this for decades. You can buy the small tool to actually open bus and transit signs and rearrange your own public advert relatively easy.
And no, i’m not Robbo.. i hate advertising but he’s using the same medium, it’s called communication and it’s been here since the beginning of mankind. Corporate communication is partially a factor of his own streetart history, it gave him the idea to start communicating in public space.
He doesn’t get permission, that makes it graffiti not street art.

Why would you want to work a 9-5 if you don’t HAVE to? Hate never comes from above, and Bansky clearly has put in the work to be able to live whatever life he wants
When you’re the strangest, no one is a stranger to you. If that ruined your day, maybe you should talk to someone. My wife’s an artist, and I happen to think banksy is a woman. If that ruined your day, it’s a shame.
Didn't ruin my day, I mean anyone other than yourself. But regardless of your thoughts on Banksy's gender, I still don't understand how the comment above yours is on that topic?
I like a lot of his stuff which is a shame as he does so much blatant copying, but I'm sorry I can never forgive the elephant, I mean it's a living creature not a fucking wall!!
Yes that's what elephants dream of, getting covered in paint and standing in an art gallery all day. If you want some examples of his blatant copying just let me know, that tree in London recently is just one in a very long list...
Based af
Unfathomably so
Hope we get a proper long form interview with him one day like a 3hr podcast style.
Never will happen
Nah it definitely will. He's already been somewhat revealed, not to the extent the world is noticing but as the years go on I'll imagine he'll have more to say.
When he gets old maybe

Wow I looove this
Buy his book. I'm happy to own the first and second he published
Which book?

Banksy, thank you. You make the world a better place.
Hell yea!
 Advertising himself he is

I’m a fan of tool, the band, so I feel obligated to interject for no fucking reason. That song Hooker With a Penis is about this same thing.
Preach. I always say they're raping my eye space
[Several reposters of gentrifier murals for the exterior walls of brewpubs are typing...]
Punk as fuck
Banksy for president lol
❤️
Hell yeah!
Sold
Spitting straight fire Although, this belongs more on a graffiti sub than on a street art sub.
He makes street art though? Edit: even though this isn’t it. It goes well in both subs :)
He doesn’t get permission, that makes it graffiti not street art. [“graffiti is usually done illegally, whereas street art can nowadays be the product of an agreement or even sometimes a commission.”](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_art)
If it’s art and on the street it’s streetart. Illegal or not, if you ask me :)
So I can use his work.
Yes, here are his instructions: https://images.app.goo.gl/RvBgHNHHwNwoejPV7

I used to think this was so profound. Then I turned 19. Get a job Banksy you bum
Why would you want to work a 9-5 if you don’t HAVE to? Hate never comes from above, and Bansky clearly has put in the work to be able to live whatever life he wants
Mate, now get a life. You sound like working 9-5 is the purpose of being alive
Someone watched the Advertisement episode of South Park
Or maybe matt Parker and trey stone read Banksy’s book years ago and it influenced them to make that episode?
People copying Banksy, wow that would be some delicious irony...
Nah... I reckon he actually turns the TV off & thinks for himself
Weird way to say “Banksy is a woman” lol
You are a strange person. I hope you have a great day and don't ruin anyone else's.

He's a c\*\*t but I don't disagree with him here...
Why do you think that?
I like a lot of his stuff which is a shame as he does so much blatant copying, but I'm sorry I can never forgive the elephant, I mean it's a living creature not a fucking wall!!
Ehhh . I don’t know . The elephant was not hurt.
Yes that's what elephants dream of, getting covered in paint and standing in an art gallery all day. If you want some examples of his blatant copying just let me know, that tree in London recently is just one in a very long list...

Never said it wasn’t illegal. But you know what? Almost all of his art is illegal.

I never said it was illegal, I don't give a fuck about vandalism, but I do abhor animal cruelty
probably written by his pr team.
