  • wouldnt it be really fucked up if banksy was a 90 year old man

  • if you want a banksy print one out ............

  • TOY

    

  • How hard was that gallery owner trying to fight his natural accent and sound sophisitacted? What a cunt.

  • MMMMmmmm now play the game turf wars!

  • errrm... radioactive isotope?

  • such unqualified commentators, Banksy will be remembered long after ALL of them are forgotten, and the same goes to all the dicks who slag Banksy off cos they saw a documentary

  • i wonder if banksy signs on.

  • they could have shortened this entire programme just by saying a few words.. "banksy is a cunt". BIG UP TEAM ROBBO!!!!!!!

  • @BenM6521 Don't get to jealous haters....

  • @ThesilenceJDK banksy has no skill... just a pussyclat bristolian art fag

  • @BenM6521 I know what you mean but he's more an expressionist rather than a graphitti artist. Know one has to be categorized in a certain style or genre, It's just an easier way of someone to hate

  • @BenM6521 TEAM ROBBO AND TEAM BANKSY

    

  • @wisdom261 nah just team robbo... team banksy? just another bite to add to his collection.......

  • @BenM6521 I love both robbo and banksy work but i know robbo is more better artist then banksy.

  • Team Robbo

  • how can he say its not art!? that guy is a faggot

  • in fact, if they left banksy's artwork on the street, it would easily be painted over by some assholes, so they got to take it away in order of protect his arts. But if they're that rich, why dont they buy away the whole wall and leave it alone?

  • DEJEN QUE LA GENTE SE EXPRESE MAL PARIDOS LIDERES MUNDIALES DE MIERDA PRONTO LLEGARA EL CAMBIO BIEN POR GENTE COMO ESTE PANA Y TODOS ESTAMOS DEACUERDO MENOS USTEDES Y SUS CIVILES PROGRAMADOS.

  • His graffities = PR 

  • Prime example of modern society a group of ppl publicly speaking about something they know nothing about in my opinion. It's really simply not worth typing my thoughts im sure you get it.

  • What a boring bunch of rot a circle jerk of opinions! These people assume that they are the high priests who will interpet what the gods are saying for the rest of us.

  • Lol I like Banksy's boldness. "I can't believe you morons actually buy this shit" Pun? :D And hes talented and mysterious. :]

  • Comparing Banksy to Warhol... Just.. No. Banksy= ARTIST/OPINION MAKER , Warhol= Guy who can make ink into famous people, with no point. no passion.

  • BANKSY KING!!!!

    FUCK U BOLIDS!!!

  • Fuck your judgements:)

    -FutureOfOurCity!!!

  • Fuck your judgements:)

    

  • baha, of course it's art. I don't understand why people debate so much on wether it is or not.

  • how, sad.... :(

  • YEs.Let's over analyze this until it's meaningless. Andy Warhol was not an artist, he was a marketing genius and a self loathing prick who needed to medicate himself just so he could function around other self loathing (wealthy) pricks.

  • Ill keep this simple, im an artist, and i think Banksy is a legend, his work ticks every box and more, it has meaning, its amazingly detailed and well drawn, and most of all. it has humor, something most art dosnt have. Banksy is doing more than any other artist, coz lets be honest, (and this is coming from an artist) arts fucking boring lol

  • You don't know if it's art?

    It's a visual and even interactive stimulus which further relates to the current trends of modern society. That is the pure definition of Art and his work completely embodies those aspects.

  • Banksy is a little wanker from Southmead, Bristol UK,

    his name is Paul XXXXs.........work it out m8

  • these posh people are irritating

  • The banks taught Banksy Wanksy everything he knows.

    BANK-sy.

    lol

  • who the fuck do these people think they are to decide what is and is not art??

  • she cant imagine how ppl make art for free :D mora :D

    the best part is that his not even on the show, so they make big baks on someone that hates them(hope). so who is the real looser here??? rothchild i tell you :D

    and i just need to say it, coz i am real and you are not :D,rothchilds...do the evel is the eassest job, thats why you will never be human :)

  • BANKSY SPEAKS WITH OUT BE SPEAKING IF DONT GET HIS ART YOU MUST BE BLIND AND STUPID

  • There should be a new legislation for legalizing all the art that banky is doing.

  • 5:20 - 5:31 Epic WIN , asshole....

  • 6 min of nonsense...what a crap discussion ....

  • @3cialo141 this is exactly what happens when you give real raw art to the art students ..if you understand what i mean...

  • his art is neat and hes a folk hero but im annoyed that we dont know who he is and hes selling art for hundreds of thousands

  • I remember about 12 years ago, when Banksy's work was only featured in underground Hip hop magazines, I really wanted to own one of his canvasses, but now, I can't think of anything more mainstream and uncool. He's obviously a legend, but he's had too much exposure.

  • Why the hell was there an MBW piece in there?

  • Grafifi

  • fuck i wish was good at this sort of graff. i wana be able to wheat paste and stencil like bansky but i arnt good at all of that designing stuff. im only good with a can

  • Hope Banksy stays the fuck away from the Art snobs and gallery's, just the other day most of these fuckers wanted him locked up for vandalism! Keep it street !

  • Comment removed

  • Every point he makes was not made by Warhol! That's ridiculous! If anything he's making a Duchampian comment on the complexities of defining art and it's position in society, and also taking art out of the pretension of the gallery space - something which should have happened a long time ago.

    She's an idiot! He was not the first to question authorship! Again, Duchamp was doing that with his readymades!

  • Who the fuck are these people? Banksy is more popular than these jokers, his work is world class.

  • i'm no art critic but Banksy has

  • put them in your t.v. room and watch a doco on art history

  • honestly these art snobs really are pricks. they think because banksy is for the people and not for the snobs they dislike him!

  • These silly art critics miss the whole point of graffiti! Take it as it is and shut the fuck up about it.

  • lol as if Banksy doesn't do drugs already...

  • This is stupid bansky is not looking for art critics praise he is trying to show his view on common things.

  • BANKSY IS ETERNAL

  • Banksy is a fricking genius, his turned graffiti into something special...this ppl are just haters cause his from the streets and a working class background and not some snobby upper class prick! He speaks for the people and his work should stay up, there is NO doubt about that! You see some ppl mess up there bedrooms and take a picture of it and call it ''art'' then you see pictures of fricking plug sockets they call that ''art'' too, that is not art at all...A Banksy is what you call true art!

  • 1:52 "he gives you art for free"

    Art is an expression of emotion and rawness, these people do not see the real side of Banksy, they are seeing Art as a form of money, Banksys work goes completely against everything the dumb redhead bitch says

  • I like Banksys work but im still questioning if its right or wrong, if i woke up to find a picture of two cops kissing on my wall, i'd be pissed and lets be honest, whats the meaning of the two cops kissing? or the copper snorting coke?, its his way of calling the UK police corrupt when their actually some of the best in the world, he did it simply to shock and offend, something i dont buy into, but being an artist myself, its hard not to love Banksys work, it is clever

  • @SamHain1031666 ...bullshit propaganda...they wouldnt make a fuss of him if they didnt invent him, hes probably some upper class toff artist..look at all the people turning up to see his work...all upper class toffs...and the letter he supposedly wrote "the audio has been mashed up"...hahahahaha...yea very common..maybe a little too common......banksy fuck off.......jeeeez britain needs a hero...

  • banksy is my idol... but has any1 thought, tht banksy could be a bunch of people?

  • banksy le rat HAHAHA, fucking bit those rats from blanc le rat...

  • i heard storys that he went to a drug shop in bristol and because the owner was nice to him he done like a picture on the side of the shop, and get this if they can take the side of the wall off its worth over 350,000 lol crazy as fuck.

  • She claims Warhol did it first?! Hah! What a lazy, impotent comparison. What Banksy does is vastly more radical and earth-shattering than anything Warhol could have ever accomplished. The message is different, the medium of it's delivery is different and the impact far greater in scope. Besides, Warhol was much more obsessed with the role of celebrity culture, whereas Banksy is about the subversion of media and the images it instills in our psyche; a vastly more important area of discourse.

  • what have these people ever accomplished and who are they to criticise?

  • MONEY OR FREEDOM! U CHOOSE (they talk a load of poppy cock lol :) ) shalow cu*t

  • @themanthatgotcrazy i made a stencil of your comment

  • Art doesn't discriminate!!

  • Love the irony of the critic.... All waving hands and many more hands.... Lets not loose context, and be in two minds, who are these people and what makes anyone an expert? Just see it all for what it is and be thankful to 'Banksy' the question his work leaves us...

  • Banksy is a voice of merging popular culture with politics and anarchy. Something so simple can become so compelling as a whole when you look at the 'Banksy' art.

  • Bansky doesnt belong in a gallery, but in the streets for everyone. And he doesn't need commentators to critic his works. He is one of the best artists ever. No more discussion.

  • BANKSY= FREAKING AWESOME!!!

  • i wish i had gone seen this galery!

  • Good point Fuckhead!

    From: Terri Panther

  • nice idea

  • respect for the hidden artist -CAZ

  • its not a team.banksy was in a gang of art but they kicked him out because he was to slow(trust me)

  • @creation1920 because theres no way 1 man would do all of that, its a team. thats why he aint been caught

  • @tricksta066

    I agree with that, thought that myself years ago that it has to be more than one person...still great though..

  • @slinkey10 He has friends that help him keep his anonymity, but he does 100 percent of his own work, stenciling and spraying. Watch the new documentary about him, someone actually got to film him.

  • no one knows who he is excpet his real name which is robin gunningham

  • thats not true his 'official' website says his name is robert banks.

    we will (i hope) never know

  • Its funny that Banksy can make great art about such controversial subjects like war, famine and cruelty and people like Brad and Angelina buy his work for stupid amounts of money,

    Banksy is a genius and its a shame that rich people are taking his art from the cities and towns from which it came.

  • But if we knew who he was then Police would catch him and there would be no more banksy art for us to see.

  • banksy is more than one person.

  • @tricksta066 exactly.

  • @tricksta066 how r u so shure?

  • banksy is a graffiti artist if he wanted his work displayed in galeries he would put it in himself but that is not what he is about his work is ment for the streets and should stay on the streets

  • @mazegraffiti but he did put his work in a galeries

  • i wish we knew who he was :/ the suspense and mystery of not knowing is killin me... its like finding the answer to y humans exist... implausible :/

  • cocks!

  • I think Banksy would find many of the "angry comments", about the critics in this video, amusing, because Youtube fosters the very same anonymity, on which he relies as an artist, for the people who use it and comment on videos. It gives people the license to be rude, passionate, cruel, and many other things. And that's probably why people find it so easy to slate the critics in this video. (Because we can judge and characterise them, and remain uncharacterised ourselves, (to a certain extent.))

  • @davydipper

    great observation....

    FUCK YOU!

  • @davydipper The other day I went on the Queen Christmas message video on youtube, and commented: FUCK YOU BITCH !

    (I think everybody should do the same....)

  • @gringodeltoro1 give us a link and im there

    

  • @liquefiedbutter Try watch?v=T12qfpSwUS0

    Or type Queen Christmas message in the youtube bar.

    I've done it so many times now, that the user blocked me. But there is plenty other video with the queen that can be wasted with outrageously degrading language. Take your pick ! (send me a link later )

  • @gringodeltoro1 my work is done

  • @liquefiedbutter I saw it... now work it up a little (exemple: Our latest survey has discovered that from our sources close to the Queen, It is says that she regularly, if not frequently masturbate with an already used toilet brush...)

    If you seek inspiration, let me know.

  • Comment removed

  • if banksy wants his pieces to be in theire exhibit he would put them there...

  • Which he has in the past. Even on this video she says that 'he smuggles his work into famous art galleries'.

  • ya i know...

  • he did in the museum didnt he! but yeah tottaly agree (y) thumbs up mate

  • the thing that is going to come out of banksy is more graffiti..

  • all showing their age and narrow mindedness...

  • Banksy is for the people not for the elitist snobs of the gated art community. I can't stand art intellectuals like this group who enjoy hearing their on voice in a discussion. Banksy is mocking this demographic of society.

  • totally agree...

  • @BTC141 Couldn't of said it better myself. Thank you

  • @zebobslayer Cheers.

  • @BTC141 Any human being can appreciate a Banksy piece, art isnt for a select crowd, its for anyone and id never denie a person being into street art just due to their demographic, the mere fact that their paying attention shows that they like his work, so let them like it, it might open their minds somewhat

  • @SamHain1031666 I wouldn't say any human being, and what is the definition of appreciation in this context? They are paying attention not because they put him the spotlight of attention but because the public have paid attention and connected with Banksy's work. These art eggheads are way too parochial and opaque for my liking. Anyone can have an opinion about the art scene, whether or not it is valid is an entirely different thing all together.

  • I think you catagorize people too much, it dosnt really matter what field of work someone is in, you seem to think for example if a person is rich and their in the field of buying and selling art, then that person couldnt possibly understand a Banksy piece. Yes Banksy is street art, but that dosnt mean its ONLY for the street and cant be appreciated hung above a rich mans fire place. Banksys demographic is people that like art, I can imagine Prince Will owning a Banksy, and hes not street

  • wtf is she on about? its not supposed to be put on a wall and looked at " his art is almost lol funny"... Fuck off?

  • do you want to read that over and your different spellings on each one, and re-write that? dickhead

  • your yo dumb guerilla is a spanish word that means war used redundantly in the term "guerilla warfare." "geriller" is how she prenounced the word you fucking moron calling me an idiot because your too dumb to understand me.

  • Well actually, you are the "fucking moron" as if you knew anything about the English language, you'd know that in most parts of the UK we have non-rhotic accents, which means that we don't say -"er" we say -"ah". so who's the dumb fuck now, you stupid bellend!;)

  • maybe ur just an idiot.

  • its just the english accent.

  • have you ever thought maybe your saying it wrong? lol

  • bunch of bloody idiots agreed! why couldnt they talk about the messages, and just admit theyre really cleverly done!

  • when the fuck did warhol do graffiti?? that red headed chick is a fuckin idiot. art is art, she cant say whether it is good or bad, or whether its able to be put in a gallery or not. surely all art can be put in a gallery.

  • "when the fuck did warhol do graffiti??"

    She didn't. Idiot.

    I her opinion it's good or bad.

    not all art can be put in galleries. Check out some land art. site specific art etc.

  • hey fuck tard i ment t as what the redhead was sayin, she implyed that warhol had done it all b4! iv never seen any graffiti by warhol have u? exactly ....u fuckin idiot! and btw any art as long as its not fuckin massive can be put in a gallerie, it mite not have a beter impreesion on the viewer but it can be still displayed there!

  • "she implyed that warhol had done it all b4!"

    Yeah, but not through graf. She was suggesting that Warhol had done this one second flick of an image and you get the message. Through Pop Art he would succeed what advertising companies were doing but he was doing it in the Art World...

    ...Banksy...many years later...does the same thing. Which isn't bad because he does it in an interesting way by using Street Art whereas Warhol did it through the gallery.

  • every point he's made has already been made by Warhol?

    daft bird...

  • Warhol is the most overrated tosser in the world. Fuck him.

  • BANKSY lol hes so obviously taking the piss with that name

  • warhol suckssss thoughh, bansky is awesoomme

  • Newsnight why did you get three art critics who really dont know what they're talking about, before they criticise Banksy let us not forget the bank roll pay of their pockets for talking absolute rubbish. Also I thought that scientific subjections were all meant to be non - bias. 1 star.

  • Ginger cow

  • he risks heights and the fucking army. he spends hours on his stencils to make them perfect, and has pulled off some of the most ballsy shit on earth, and guess what, hes never been caught! no one has ever seen his face! hes practically a myth.

    don't get me wrong, i respect artists like you, but his is street are too.

  • wtf how r they one liner there amzing paintings

  • I saw the guantanamo captive at disneyland and i love his work keep going banksy!!!!!

  • what banksy does is not crime, its art. theres no getting away from it, if a picture tells a thousand words then banksy's tells even more. i really get what he's trying to put across to us, its art that speaks. sometimes with his work you have to think a bit before you understand but 99 percent of them carry a clear message.

  • Art as a commodity is bullshit. Everybody has to eat.

    Before warhal it wasnt ok for artists to have money it was liek they were doing it for the fun of it and nothin else.

    If you can capitalise on something you enjoy then go on. And if you work is being bought because of what it is then you are a sucess your not an image of pretention or greed or anything like that.

    People like your work and thats that

  • Should could shalln't can't won't would will is isn't.

    art.

    period.

    the end.

  • I never thought i would think of sex and violance whilst watching a Banksy feature on newsnight. Firstly ,i felt like sticking my cock in that ginger pieces mouth, then secondly i wanted to hit the two mincing art critics around the face with a claw hammer. Classic BBC2, More please!!

  • Couldn't agree with you more ShotgunJack101, a bunch of Hot Wind. Shut up you stupid middle class art retards

  • Comment removed

  • Guerilla you dumb fuck. And yes, Banksy is an urban guerilla.

  • Not all graffiti is an art the same as not every painting on a canvas is. Art is not define by material but by amount of thinking and conclusions that artists put into it.

  • they say it belongs on the street, but they don't even let us do it on the street.

    GRAFFITI IS A FORM OF ART!

  • Lets get it straight it is vandalism and people who root for the under dog all because they see the world as a whole and recognize the system relate to it. anything else is bullshit

  • I am Banksy, and that baldy pissess me off.

  • ye because banksy is polish

  • anyone who said graf is street art is a serious retard

  • and why's that?

  • because,graffiti is actually from the street,spending years perfecting your letterforms,fills,etc,street art is a bunch of kids with too much money who buy some montana gold at 10 quid a can,and politely ask local shopkeepers for old crisp boxes,then get mommy to cut out some stupid shit,and then think thyre something for it.i hate all street artists,except banksy,as he is more of a writer than most writers are haha

  • i think its funny when people talk shit about tyler.

    this is his friend.

    one of the biggest mother fucking street artists in the US, and he does the dopest pieces youd ever fucking see...

    and doesnt have to pay, cause hes sponsored, quit your quid shit, take your british ass, crooked teeth elsewhere, or stay on your side of youtube wanker, theres UK and US youtubes for a reason

  • One problem, Banksy comes from Bristol, England. Also you look like a dumb ass dancing in one of your videos on your channel.

  • it was at an ART college, majoring ART,

    bitches dont know what they're talking about.

  • why spend so much time writing a comment completely irrelevant to the arguement?im not talkin about some queer called tyler?im talkin about "street artists"....im irish btw,call me british and ill personally kick your arse.

  • so your british?

  • yes he is british, tht maeks things even awesomer

  • ignorant prick

  • banksy is dope

  • haha, look at this people talking about street art like they know a F*ck about it!

    Wankers!!!

  • graffiti is not art nore vandalism

    its street art

  • how does what you just said make sense? art is art.

  • art is not a commodity.
