Utheman Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 The wife and I were in New Orleans this weekend and ran across this piece of urban art by an artist named Banksy. Very cool! The neighborhood placed plexiglass over it for protection. Has anyone else seen his work?
patrickm500 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Posted March 16, 2012 Yes, Banksy is a very hot commodity right now. That 'graffiti' if removed and sold would easily go for upwards of 50K at least. He's very talented and paints commentary on social and political issues for the most part. He's got several art compilations out that showcase his work. There's also a documentary on him that won some kind of film award.
