If you didn't know, the Oscar is a BIG DEAL! If you didn't know, Banksy 'smashed' alot to promote the film upon it's release. If you didn't know, 'smashing' is what Banksy does best.
I say bring it on, Banksy! 'Smash' more!

A selection of Banksy's latest work in and around Los Angeles. Pictures: Banksy.co.uk Source: The Australian
BANKSY'S plan to attend the Oscar ceremony in disguise was vetoed by the Academy for Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, but the British graffiti artist may take solace in the knowledge that his nomination has added hundreds of thousands of pounds to the value of his work.
The Bristol-born graffitist, whose real name is thought to be Robin Gunningham, has been on a publicity drive since he was nominated for Best Documentary Feature for his film Exit Through the Gift Shop.
Works in his irreverent style have appeared recently across Los Angeles. They include a boy with a machinegun firing crayons in a field of flowers, a drunk Mickey Mouse holding a cocktail and wrapping his arm around a model on a billboard on Sunset Boulevard and the cartoon character, Charlie Brown, with a cigarette hanging from his mouth.
The works impressed the Los Angeles Times, which opined that he was a welcome addition to the usual Oscar buzz. "If Academy officials are worried that Banksy might do something bizarre on Oscar night, our advice is not only to get over that but to invite him back next year as a presenter," the newspaper declared.
In the month since the nominations were announced, Banksy's art has already shown signs of a price bump. Analysis provided by the art-price monitor, artnet, of the ten most recent sales of Banksy works shows that prices were on average 25 per cent higher than the highest estimate put on the work by auction houses.
Sotheby's in London sold Banksy's Heavy Weaponry, an image of an elephant with a rocket on its back, for pounds 82,250 last week after giving it an upper estimate of pounds 18,000. The auction record for any of his works is a much larger piece entitled Keep it Spotless, a Damien Hirst spot painting defaced with the image of a chamber maid apparently lifting up the bottom of the canvas, which sold for dollars 1.87million at Sotheby's New York in February 2008.
The artist had his first brush with Hollywood in 2006 when Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie expressed an interest in his work, but art experts believe that the Oscar coverage combined with canny control of the supply of his work will cause prices to rise again.
There is a catch, however, for owners of Banksy works. They are worth little without a certificate of authenticity, but Pest Control, which describes itself as the "handling agency" for Banksy's work, has refused to give certificates for works that it says were "not originally intended for resale", including street art and gifts.
Simon Todd, a consultant for artnet, said that Pest Control did not have a consistent policy for authenticating work. Pest Control, which is run by the art dealer Holly Cushing, has rejected some works as being "test sprays" but has authenticated others.
"If they like you, or they're feeling nice, then they will authenticate," Mr Todd said. "It is not in Pest Control's interests to authenticate more Banksy works because prices will go down."Jo Brooks, who handles Banksy's public relations, did not respond to inquiries about Pest Control.

OSCAR Nominated - Exit Through The Gift Shop, by cwilson1 on Feb 28, 2011 1:29:33 GMT 1, I hope he doesn't win, he seems to have forgotten what he was suppose to be all about. It's such a shame that someone once so great now and fresh is now running with the rest and practically becoming everything he used to be against.
