Walls are for art
Do you remember when walls were built by the forces of repression?
Has that changed?
How can that change?
Anyway, thanks to Shamash and BagNews for pointing the way to Banksy, who has found one use for the wall on the West Bank.
If you build a big ugly concrete wall, the [graffiti] artists will come.
Banksy is up to new tricks that you should check out.
Banksy makes the NYTimes with an exhibit in LA. Perhaps not so much graffiti anymore?
…or, as Banksy puts it in a handout: “1.7 billion people have no access to clean drinking water. 20 billion people live below the poverty line. Every day hundreds of people are made to feel physically sick by morons at art shows telling them how bad the world is but never actually doing something about it. Anybody want a free glass of wine?”
