They are also on the wall on commercial road where it meets eastcott hill (kind of). and in the car park on a post behind sunnys. Its quite mysterious Title: Have you seen this about?

Title: Have you seen this about? Post by: strooood on Sunday, March 20, 2005, 21:31:48 it's a stencil obviously by a graffiti writer.
someone copying the famous political stencil artist (not to be confused with a writer) BANXI. people always come out with quirky little stencils trying to copy him and this dude's no exception Title: Have you seen this about?

Title: Have you seen this about? Post by: yeo on Sunday, March 20, 2005, 22:06:06 I expect everyone to look out for these and take photos as proof.If we pin down each location we may get a pattern and be able to work out where the sprayer lives.(you know like in Cracker and what not)This is an important mystery that must be solved.

Most else I've seen in Bristol/England is fucking shit. Although I remember being taken to see some in Freshbrook years ago that wasn't too bad, I think at a skater's place. Straight out of Wildstyle me. Title: Have you seen this about? Post by: yeo on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 00:40:06 Couldnt find any of these today,spent 5 hours looking.(ok I forgot)

I don't know much about Banksy but reading his website he's funny. Quote In April this year he exhibited a dead rat wearing sunglasses in the natural history museum for several hours before museum staff noticed. Six months earlier he had surreptiously hung a painting in the tate Britain gallery He gained further noteriety after painting the queen as a chimpanzee during her golden jubilee. http://www.concepttshirts.co.uk/articles/banksy-2.gif :D http://www.banksy.co.uk/cuttings/wdp_injustice.html http://www.banksy.co.uk/cuttings/images/NEW/guardian.jpg Also the quote about the protestor in this article is pure comedy genius. Quote Exhibition promoter Steve Lazarides said: "The animals are well cared for and I'm just going to leave the protestor to it. Visitors will just think that she's part of the exhibition." http://www.banksy.co.uk/cuttings/hackney-gazette.html I also thought this was class http://www.ananova.com/images/web/62917.jpg So I thinks he's alright. Title: Have you seen this about? Post by: strooood on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 12:48:31 he did a stencil on the senotaff last rememberance day.

Title: Have you seen this about? Post by: oxford_fan on Tuesday, March 22, 2005, 19:18:19 i dont really know much about graff either, but the best i've ever seen was on the train from amsterdam centraal station to and from the airport. its all along the sides of the track, bloody miles of the stuff. and its of a good quality from the view of a novice's eyes.
