Banksy In LA

Posted by on

While Banksy was in Los Angeles for his Oscar nominated film, Exit Through The Gift Shop, he beautified our beloved city with some fantastic new pieces. Thanks to maps like these, you can locate and create your own Banksy sightseeing tour. Unfortunately, most of them have either been removed or vandalized as of late. We’ll just have to keep on the lookout for the next one . . . keep ‘em coming, Banksy!

    I just watched Exit Through the Gift Shop a few days ago… I had heard about him and seen his work but the movie got me so much more interested. “This looks like an elephant” is humorous, I like him :)

    I am such a Banksy fan! Adore his work, but get so insanely upset when I hear about his work getting removed or vandalized ~ so heartbreaking! If I’m not mistaken, someone actually cut off the piece of wall with the charlie brown image! I mean, come on now! Cutting off a piece of wall!?! Crazy…

    I’m a fan of anyone who can bring more positive attention to street art. Amazing stuff!

    The first image, the black and white part looks like Banksy but did someone else add the colorful parts? It doesn’t remind me of other works of his. If someone else added on to it, in the case I would not consider it vandalized but another expression of street art. Banksy takes what is there and adds to it, the second artist did the same.

    The first image is a new addition to an Urban Outfitters store in Cali and is 100% original Banksy! :)

    Charlie Brown! The Peanuts are epic. But that doesn’t really seen like Bansky to me…
