Mark W Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Ahoy hoy. I remembered reading somewhere in Sites, Vids & Pics about "Banksy", who I *think* is a friend of Craig Lee Scott, or at least he was mentioned in a thread about CLS. Aaaaaanyway, yeah, found this in the newspaper today: Same Banksy? Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate and I went up the his exhibition in london a year ago, he had most of his work there. I try and do it but no where near as good as him, have any of you seen his pieces up in Southbank? :P they are cool. Perm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Quinn Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 The guys a genius, check out some of the work on his website, http://www.banksy.co.uk/. There's been numerous newspaper articles featuring his name and he seems to be very well known! Max Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N.Wood Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Underneath a bridge on the back way to the Tate, it has 'Bankside' written in large letters, he came and made the i into a y, making 'Banksy'. The council have repainted it, but you can still see the remnants of the y >_< Jake did a project on his work i believe, i'll try and get him to take a look at this... Might rekindle the old trials flames :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom-ass Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 i remember back a fair few years ago when his work starting popping up in bristol, where i think he's from. You really have got to admire a real artist for doing things differently. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
