BANKSY - LA Premier "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by Daniel Silk on Apr 15, 2010 16:53:02 GMT 1, Really Silky? I'm with Wearology on this one. I find the Poodle one a bit trite (although artistically better maybe)
I think the message is stronger with PARKing, but I like the detail in the Guard

BANKSY - LA Premier "Exit Through The Gift Shop", by rkitek on Apr 15, 2010 17:02:50 GMT 1, I thought the comments about the Security Guard piece on Vandalog were interesting:
"When this stencil first appeared, it wasnโt clear if the dog was meant to be an actual balloon animal or a reference to the Jeff Koons artwork (or both). Given a comment Tim McCool made on Hyperallergic though, it is clear that this piece is referencing Koons. According to McCool, โThereโs a Koons quote: โAbstraction and luxury are the guard dogs of the upper class.โ So Banksy is accusing Koonsโ work of being in the same category of unintelligible, abstract, and ludicrously expensive art.โ Given that, Iโve totally changed my opinion of this piece. At first I found it kind of boring, but this 2nd meaning, Iโd say this piece was much more interesting. Itโs great when Banksy comes up with pieces that have 2 or even three completely meanings depending on how you look at the piece. In this case, heโs combined an okay joke for the masses with witty commentary for the art-world elite (to be clear, I certainly am not including myself in the art-world elite. I never would have caught that 2nd meaning)."

very weak, borderline and amateurish ??
You havent got a danny... ;D
