Banksy revealed two new sets of work — a series of his more common street guerilla art, as well as 3 new paintings (Ballerina, Lifestyle Out of Order and Parliament). The location of the graffiti/street pieces has not been revealed, probably to keep them from being stolen and/or destroyed before anyone really gets to see […]

Banksy has become somewhat of a cottage industry for publishers, who all seem to want to express their perspective of the famed Bristol artist/prankster (and/or make some money off his name). The latest is Banksy: The Bristol Legacy from professor/author Paul Gough, 160-page paperback which follows his rise in his hometown of Bristol culminating in […]

Kind of hard to believe Banksy is actually officially involved in this hat collection, or it could just be a case of streetwear pop art appropriation — we’ll keep our eyes out. Rarely does the famed British street artist/cultural agitator/merry prankster license his work out, but it does happen every so often so I guess […]

Since we first saw TrustoCorp’s subversive street art we’ve been fans. In the over-saturated, bloated world of street art, it takes doing something really different in order to stick out from the crowd (or just doing something really well).

Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. It’s in the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA, in downtown Los Angeles, with […]

Who wouldn’t want a tiny action figure of Damien Hirst or Jeff Koons on their desk, just to mock relentlessly every time your boss gets grossly overpaid for something or hogs unnecessary credit for something he didn’t create? Or you can have some artist you actually respect — really it’s up to you. Visual artist […]

Kind of a no-brainer here — if you love Banksy and/or The Simpsons, then you know how he did the opening sequence for an episode this past October. Well now Banksy’s opened up the vault to his creative process and uploaded his storyboard sketches for all to see. Yaye! Kill 2 minutes of your day, […]

Adding another graffiti-focused book to his resume, Roger Gastman’s latest, Tools of Criminal Mischief, might just be his best published anthology yet. The book is a project he tackled to follow the history of graffiti and its writers throughout the century, starting as far back as the 1940’s with hobo train art, carrying through 1970’s […]
