Who is Banksy?

[MrRossrossiter]

team robbo, team blek. Mr Robin Gunningham

[tbor44]

...Is not as original as you might think. Google 'Blek Le Rat'

[dennisama]

I LOVE BANKSY.

[xISiLLeNTIx]

That dude that said its not one person its a whole group in other words , is an idiot lol

[MrRossrossiter]

@xISiLLeNTIx

its niether a worldwide collective or 1 person. robin gunningham has a team of helpers who he calls pest control

[WyattDubbs90]

I hate to be on of those asshole's who corrects people... But Banksy isn't one man, it's a Worldwide collective.

[UnbornChild]

The person speaking in this video sucks. Ugh. What a boring voice. So robotic

[DupczacyBawol]

4:11 American pigs and the rest of the World.

[Extrabitzy]

Word

[lionstanding]

Not to disparage capitalism.....He's really making it work..like a Mexican drug cartel dealing to the CIA armed with weapons from the gubbmint....the guy is sanctioned and protected kinda like opium growers in Afghanistan....the Ethos is dead....

[lionstanding]

Banksy is a gubbmint sanctioned and approved artist.....The Chosen One whom the authorities use to ideologically bomb and dissuade all the other graffiti artists (who are usually shot or do time for their art) from their artistic practice... wealthy capitalist prankster.....sorry, POSTER BOY IS KING....

[blabla124151515]

It is widely considered that Banksy is infact Robin Gunningham from Bristol, not ROBERT.

[Ahiga4545]

@blabla124151515 Robin isn't Banksy.

[blabla124151515]

@Ahiga4545 Haha because you're Banksy?

[banq0o]

is it possible to get pic of the piece at 4:15 ?

[punkjewellery]

Ever since i saw his global warming graffiti.I see him as a media whore.

[banq0o]

my taste artist 8-)

[ellieandjimmy]

Do you think when/IF he dies they will reveal him?

[elbowbiter1]

At least 33 people need to drown themselves in a hot bucket of human piss to make the world a better place.

[me53914]

this is a great documentary.great job

[021farsi]

that guy is not banksy

[EviLPaPeRDoLL]

HES DOPE FUCK WHAT U ALL THINK FUCKING HATERS

[BarbieBiitch420]

is his name actually robert banks?

[ThePoolsAlwaysClosed]

@BarbieBiitch420

no. I heard somewhere else that he was identified as Robin Gunningham. but who knows...

[TehMoronSystem]

BANKSY is my hero i wan't to become like him but i know i can't copy a master like that and i'll never do it! and i don't get it that some prudish people don't like it IT'S ART GODDAMNIT ART!

[BarbieBiitch420]

which process does banksy use... Observing, Imaging, Abstracting, or Patterning

[grillosonador]

[sbsteamwolf]

2:16 is my favorite

[MrIzzyDizzy]

he just loaned some work to the zeitgeist media fest - it wasnt covered much by the online streaming -but one peice was briefly shown the painting of a panhandler with the sign - will work for change

[samisaberle]

the fuck, there is no way that's a legit picture of banksy

[MrMaleasy]

@samisaberle I think so as well. And if I'm honest, I don't even want to know how he looks - imagine everybody suing him for doing art.

[samisaberle]

@MrMaleasy I think it would take away from his image as well, banksy's facelessness is so much a part of who he is to everyone, you know?

[MrMaleasy]

@samisaberle yeah, that's what makes him great - kind of a phantom, a mister X or something ;-)

[LinkShack]

Banksy's real name is John Smith, but good luck tracking him down.

[TheCrystalknight71]

because banksy street art gets protected preference whilst other artist's with just as good artistic merit get there work removed ,Tells me ,maybe wansky has conections ,The upclasse's that have bought into this myth Banksy has street credentials but he has none youve been ripped off lmao HAIL ROBBO

[jessxxy]

WHO IS BANKSY??  BANKSY IS A CARDBOARD CUT OUT CUNT.....

[LaaLiPop]

lol it's so simple BANKS(+Y)

[Soboredwtf]

Your presentation lacks personality. Reading from a script is one thing, but don't do it if you SOUND like you're reading a script. You also make too many assumptions. I feel that anyone watching this that knows a thing or two about Banksy would catch your contradictions and misplaced assumptions of the truth. Also, as controversial as it might sound, I believe the title is street art, not graffiti.

[SeanBrooksy90]

How do we really know its Banksy??? hes been hidden for ages and suddenly we find him? i dont think a person with strong views about his art will give in this easily.

i have total respect for banksy and i believe in a better world that he can create through art!

[kaptncolors]

Why do you even try to use a computerized voice if you are even willing to *try* and expose him with a false face? You are not worthy. This video alone makes you not only a hypocrite, but also ignorant and possibly even labeled a snitch. Visit the owl, wisen up.

[kaptncolors]

@kaptncolors theres a reason for anonymity. Just accept the message.

[lukeCocaCola4ever]

3:50 is eron

[jdkit]

banksy = the stig

[2sSHenky]

@UziStuNNa wikipedia? really?

[captainIE]

Banksy the shit

[nate18871]

robert banksy is that his name? And why does he write banksy?

[ollietuckitintome]

probably the most anonymous man in the world !

[chienexnacion]

you are so wrong, empty and blind, i feel sad for loosers like you.

[weeleon81]

some council in London painted over one of his murals thinking it was just another illegal bit of graffiti, when the person who actually owned the wall had paid tens of thousands! think they are suing the council now, also read he used another artists tag for one of his own pieces which is a big no no, he had stenciled a man cleaning off this guys original grafitti & he caught some stick for it for not respectin the guys art,& to be fair doubt he would like someone de-facing one of his pieces

[dima9944]

3:33 is a lie

[oSNE4Ko]

.that guy with a spray can must be banksy.

[ShredYourHed]

the guy in the beginning isnt banksy

[DieWalrossen]

this guys a tool i doubt his name is even robert banks.

[MrGReYDuBStEp]

who is banksy........................­..well he got kicked out of his old crew coz he was whak at graffiti then he moved to stencils.......i like banksys work but its STREET ART not GRAFFITI

[kefindifidofo]

@MrGReYDuBStEp

GRAFFTI

graf·fi·ti

[gruh-fee-tee]

( used with a plural verb ) markings, as initials, slogans, or drawings, written, spray-painted, or sketched on a sidewalk, wall of a building or public restroom, or the like: These graffiti are evidence of the neighborhood's decline.

[MrGReYDuBStEp]

@kefindifidofo  Art Fag

[kefindifidofo]

@MrGReYDuBStEp (I like what Banksy does) You said Banksy's art is not Graffity ..I just gave you the definition of graffiti ...

"FAG/gay" today's overused word for the cowards to escape the fact that they just got owed . get fucking real what are you 9.. if your going to insult me at least say something clever.

[BlindSkateboardsFan5]

@MrGReYDuBStEp they kicked him because he was painting slow you idiot.

[greatbeaner07]

nice school project u got a c

[lavusrcu]

this isnt banksy

[tomken8dy]

I like him.

[optimistsRUS]

@UziStuNNa

The population of 1905 Palestine was less than 3% Jewish, in 1922 it was 11%, in 1946 it was 34% Jewish. UN plan gave the minority Jews 56% of the land, most arable and fertile of Palestine. The settlers expelled 800,000 natives, occupied 80% of the total land (now called Israel) and still refuses the right of return to the refugees. In 1967 they took the rest of the 22% and still occupy it.

Of course if you are Jewish American or European you have the "right of return" to Israel.

[optimistsRUS]

@UziStuNNa

The second intifada (like the first intifada) started peacefully, the violence from Palestinians didn't come before the uniformed Israeli terrorists (armed with US tax dollars) killed more a dozen unarmed, peaceful Palestinian protesters and injured several dozens in the first 3 days. Go read the history before you side with the apartheid state.

[evansbluefan]

I'm sorry, but Banksy planned the whole thing with MBW. If you can't see that, then you don't know Banksy.

[pwnintehnoobs1]

have you posted other school projects online? i swear i have heard your voice in another documentary.

[PowdeRade]

@3:23 its australia

[UziStuNNa]

@PowdeRade That's awesome, never noticed that

[FLAXENFERNTK]

@PowdeRade how is that aus ?

[UziStuNNa]

@FLAXENFERNTK The outline is of Australia.

[DonVonsi]

@UziStuNNa never noticed too. how do you think it is linked to the general message?

[H00000My]

@UziStuNNa you dipshit have a look at a map will ya.

[PhantomAct]

@UziStuNNa Yes, i agree, you're dumb. My people don't come to your country (as some war asylum seekers) and then do illegal shit, like pissing off the natives, building berlin-style walls and constantly defying the international community (UN) by building houses in no-build zones.

[wovokanarchy]

Total ripp-off of Gee Vaucher's artwork from Crass. Crass rules ok?

[lucyk6992]

Banksy is leftist, which means he is in favour of uncontrolled immigration, and of all the other cr*p that is destroying our Western countries! Tell him, here, what you think of him! He is a leftist destroyer of others' lives, against their KNOWN wishes! He is EVIL!!!

[hck112]

The queen as a stripper, simply epic!

[GETABAGADRO]

@hobatu i agree, however there is a picture circulating around that claims to be another "banksy". im not falling for either one. google "banksy exposed"

[punkmomlives]

love Banksy and the message he sends

[machinationu]

the lock on the outside

[lsvperstar]

nice vidz dude. Very instructive and you put a nice collection of Banky's work in there !

[blasvida68]

You are not you fucking khakis

[scarletjamable]

will we ever know his real identity ... wherever he decides to strike in the world?!

[ugforthewin]

Banksy is copying my style blud. STYLE fam.

[jonnybigj]

the guy at the beginning wasent him he isent fat

[MrBornKnowledge]

i am also Banksy.

[AroundThePony]

i am Banksy

[DoomGoon138]

I am Banksy, and so are you.

[CookieOnMyShoulder]

btw that wasnt banksys picture at the beginning he has a mustache and hes not fat he has shorter black hair too

[justRel]

I really liked these: 2:04, 0:40, 4:07.

Of course all of them are fantastic!

[futurepornstar100]

@ 4:01 thats my fav. And so true ;)

[BobV97]

banksy is fucking genious

[nsaminder]

MBW (Thierry Guetta) turned the tables on existing street artists who were using their street art to turn the tables on the established art world & establishment politics by almost instantaneously commercializing it through blatant mimicry, mass production & outsourced creative labor combining them at once in his very first & *only show *(since he was up until then completely unknown until this show) by also using Banksy & other credible street artist's notoriety to self promote his own show.

[Pobeda8397]

блядь что это за хуйня?

[alexfatt]

BORING CUNT

[philcool300]

BANKSY'S A WOMAN

[TheMightyFart]

@philcool300 lol ur a retard

[ponderable90]

yeah sell your art!!! to idiots!!!

[Rikki2O1O]

lol thats not banksy, everyone knows he is sum slick superhero, and that guy looks ike a tramp, no offence...

[newgroundsandtilt123]

14 people are banskys friends.

[Alcrackdajokes]

banksys latest stunt is tryin to fool everyone with mr brainwash, terry guetta is a medium of banksy! hence MR BRAINWASH

[theraVen27]

@Alcrackdajokes

MBW is a half retarded french guy who uses pictures from the internet and microsoft paint.

MBW is not an artist but somebody who had too much money and an idea to make street art commercial

[sk8mike]

I think @ 1:15 that's a Blek Le Rat piece.

[111aletse]

Muy bueno....muy comprometido!...me gusta!

[MTAsaFaN]

He is awesome.

[sodoffpinches]

banksy hates speed cameras when he's driving he HATES them and he doesn't like the fact that there are a lot of cctv cameras in this country. he also hates tom cruise because tom cruise thinks Banksy's "work" is kinda out there. If cctv stops my nan getting pooed on and raped then i'm happy to have it...oh and by the way when i write on walls no one knows it till they read it

[xRiCkYo]

great job

[79lion79]

Very cool individual. and regardless of you fools who think you know his real name... you actually dont have a clue. No body know who he is. Im a big fan of this guy and i dont want to know who he is.

He is simply banksy. the best graffiti artist and the planet.

[sodoffpinches]

BAnksy is a wet wellie and he is sponsored by Dunlopp...everyone knows it but so few say it

[mrmalade]

robin banks aka robin gunningham

[hershtolani]

thnx

[piqoni]

@hobatu haha you really believe that the guy in the movie is the REAL banksy?

No, I doubt it. He is much smarter than that. Even the guy at the west bank might not be banksy. he is playing with us.

[piqoni]

robert banks my ass. You did a mistake showing his (wrong) identity.

good video though

[stanthology]

Good work babe! There's always gonna be some dick who finds something wrong with anything that's done.

[cobalt100]

OH, thanks for bringing this on YouTube. Banksy is a great illustrator and artist. There are few heroes in my album of life but he is a standout of rare talent. I love him.

[neumn13]

Amazing artist :)

[jlm1973]

I liked it.

[ceronueve20]

exelente arte contestatario !!... te admiro man !!

[uragano1000]

Banksy is the truth  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AZsbc2112]

Cool video man-interesting subject matter-God bless.

[rosso1000]

ebay uk is selling art by MR.COLAPOP...The new banksy!!! go check

[gymnasticsfreak55]

i really enjoy seeing all this art and trying to understand all the meaning behind it. i totally agree with all the ideas, we are living in a world where we are being oppressed by the government, and supposedly, its the best way to live. i think there is definately something better, but then, what will happen if we make our own society? everyone has their own opinion on what is right and wrong, i do not have the intelectual capability to know how to make this work, does anyone?

[the7ronin]

man i really liked to know how in the world does he do it, how does he remained concealed.

[giseba7]

Great overview, with pieces of art.

[m0x54]

So where did you get the pictures of the scribbled scenes from ?

I couldn't find any of them via google

[K4R4SUM4D3V1L]

this sounds like a high school project, scripted and all

[UziStuNNa]

@K4R4SUM4D3V1L

Cause it was.

[K4R4SUM4D3V1L]

@UziStuNNa oh lol, what did u get 4 it?

[UziStuNNa]

@K4R4SUM4D3V1L This was a project done over 2 years ago when I was a senior in high school for art history, he wanted us to put them on youtube. I got an A for it; my teacher showed me Banksy. He loved where i go, "They are VERY illegal" when i show the picture of the queen.

[UziStuNNa]

But yeah, i had a crappy microphone for it lol.

[orientalbean]

@UziStuNNa

his name isnt robert banks, thats only assumed

[mebecuzntina]

@UziStuNNa Whether you were in High School or College or whatever... You did an excellent job! Thanks for sharing!

[pipedream2992]

Nicely done

[TheMonkeynaut]

This is awesome, nice podcast.

I like "Laugh now but one day we'll be in charge" I also love the cover of the Blur's album Think Thank.

[dsidesnyc]

banksy film is out now.....somebody upload now!!!!!!

[repelghosts]

We met him at a speakeasy in Sept. 2009...a wonderful fellow and along with his two companions truly confirmed who and what he is...artists/man/human being.

Being a collector since I was 17 years old, he trusts a Cabnadian more than any other on the planet...reason? Private, but it tranceands back to WW2 years.

All best to Youtube friends..

Gemma

[mrdiamondheadTV]

Smart Critiques.Stupid Creates.

[OhmawrFidely]

Amen. This man is great, hes defiantly enlightened me he is well blessed with a great mind and everything he stand for i accept.

[LabRat6619]

Its amazing how many poor people hate Banksy once he has made money for his work. I work 5 days a week and expect to get paid for this.

The haters LOVE money but don't have any! LOL

[doggypower1]

he wouldnt be a boring artist he is a legend

[lingeropp]

banksy is an artist who started off with good intentions but is now just a breadhead whose just following the same commercial techniques as damien hirst bullshit

[AeroxRyan]

If people knew who banksy was then he would be another boring artist but still his work is inspiring and amazing . Well he wouldn't but the good bit about banksy is that we don't know who he is. I hope to get to his musuem soon. Its iv only recently known about him but I came from the same place where he was born , BRISTOL !!!!!

[Eltorrnados]

Damn what a GREAT ARTIST

[smmeegal]

Excellent thanx.

[Mak3nna85]

wow i like this

[untouchableis]

@TruthSmack: You hate ignorance?Ha ha ha...what you write about Rothsild conspiracy is full ingnornce and NO one single fact! the world is not black and white Although some of your note is maybe right (about children starving) look in the google and find out Rothsild foundation to the poorest the handicap the children. what you know poor ignorant bastard ha? let me know about one rich Islamist who give one dollar to charity?ONE? go and see Nobel price wiiners how many of them jews? and you?

[VethBlack]

great video thank you XD

[DRg00gle]

This was a relly good video, man! keep it up!

[GaGaDollx]

Nobody knows his proper name because he wants to remain out of the limelight. He wants to change the world by portraying certain messages. I dont think hes a criminal, he isnt damaging society he is improving it. He is sending a positive message through.

I think that people should leave him alone, he doesnt want to be found. So leave him!

[TruthSmack]

Dope art!The Rothschild empire was created by infiltrating every level of ALL Western governments. Through manipulation, bribery, slander, assassination, and control of the mass media, cloaked as JEWS contrived to pit nation against nation, race against race, financing all sides in the resultant wars; then at exorbitant interest rates financing reconstruction of the devastated countries. Rothschild's modus operandi has kept Western Civilization in a continuous state of war and eternally in debt.

[simonsieverts]

@TruthSmack: Please do your hate-spam somewhere else.

[TruthSmack]

Do you hate the truth? The message threw-out banksy's art is the oppression that the common man faces in today's world. We are living in the reality of a new world order. I have no hate, but ignorance I have no patience for. Children are dying. There is no time for your cheese.
