Banksy • frAGILE • Legacy of War Foundation , by bba on Dec 15, 2022 17:41:15 GMT 1, Isn't it a fancy rat?
I'm a bit late to this thread and I must admit I'm a little bit unsure as to what to make of it really.
How can they call it a screen print though? Seem more like originals to me or are the others going to be screen prints of this original maybe?
I see very little discussion around context and meaning though. There has to be more to it than the whole fragile to agile word play, surely.

Banksy • frAGILE • Legacy of War Foundation , by ilja on Dec 15, 2022 18:53:00 GMT 1, My 2 cent about the meaning at the moment
I'm thinking that what looks fragile (Ukraine), is inside the cardboard, or are the cardboard itself. It seems like an easy target with the words fragile. The rat (Putin/Russia) are trying to get inside the box, but are not succesfull and are instead falling down, in the same sense that russia is failing the warfare, leaving the box with the letters Agile. Agility is in many ways what has kept Ukraine on it's feets, and being able to hit back against Russia.
Secondly there is a funny meta interpretation that I became aware of because of french artist Dran's last Instagram post. Banksy is making a fine art piece out of trash, that plays into the whole theme about art, art marked and so on that we have seen for instance in the Morons image.
Btw. a quick google search let me to found that there has been an Russian military group that was called something with rat during the White army periode:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zemskaya_Rat

pm stands for 'post meridiem' meaning 12 hours 'after noon'.

Technically that’s incorrect.
At 12 noon the sun is directly over the meridian and is therefore neither ante nor post meridian. Same at midnight.
It’s therefore 12 noon or 12 midnight.
12.01am is early morning and 12.01pm is early afternoon.

It’s therefore 12 noon or 12 midnight. 12.01am is early morning and 12.01pm is early afternoon. When people say 12pm what they are really saying is 12 hours after the meridiem. The meridiem is when the sun is directly overhead, i.e. at noon. So 12pm is midnight. However, this does cause huge confusion so websites should never use 12am and 12pm but stick to saying 'noon' or 'midnight'. Or another way round it is to make the cut-off time 11:59 am or pm to avoid any confusion. |

I don't know why people are liking your post. If people think 12pm is midday then they are wrong. Check what pm means. Don't take my word for it; look it up yourself.

This confusion is a good argument to use the 24hr clock.

"There are no standards established for the meaning of 12am and 12pm. It is often said that 12am Monday is midnight on Monday morning and 12pm is midday. This puts all the times beginning with 12 and ending with am in the same one-hour block, similarly with those ending with pm."

I looked it up 12:00pm is usually midday according to The National Physics Laboratory "There are no standards established for the meaning of 12am and 12pm.

am stands for the Latin ante meridiem, translating to "before midday". This is the time before the sun has crossed the meridian.
pm stands for post meridiem or "after midday" – after the sun has crossed the meridian.
At exactly 12 noon, the Sun is at its highest point in the sky and directly over the meridian. It is therefore neither 'ante' (am) nor 'post' (pm) meridiem. At 12 midnight it also neither am nor pm.
