Did anyone see the culture show last night?

I was already aware of some of Banksy's stuff but some of the work he's done is awesome, simple stencilling looks wicked.

He's a underground grafitti artist cum urban legend originally from Bristol I think, specialising in pertinent stencilling, with an unnatural obsession with rats.

Banksy is a legend.

The kissing copper one is on a pub wall under the bridge beneath Brighton station.

Banksy on the prowl again.....

Firstly: Hundreds of Paris Hilton albums have been tampered with in the latest stunt by "guerrilla artist" Banksy. Banksy has replaced Hilton's CD with his own remixes and given them titles such as Why am I Famous?, What Have I Done? and What Am I For? He has also changed pictures of her on the CD sleeve to show the US socialite topless and with a dog's head.

Then; A life-size replica of a Guantanamo Bay detainee has been placed in Disneyland by "guerrilla artist" Banksy. The hooded figure was placed inside the Big Thunder Mountain Railroad ride at the California theme park last weekend.
