YO303 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Also i dont understand, are people who like disney suppose to go there and say to themselves "oh yeah ... Disney IS shit", o really bansky, the same people who are okay with blood minerals that produces the macbook pros you (bansky) and all your stupid interns and your fucking fans who really dont give a shit about slaves mining for fucking metals, minerals and diamonds for your fucking sheltered suburban white kid life, but then they go to places like these take a couple of pictures go back to starbucks and tell your group of yago-looking friends that "disney is evil" while you write in your blog (using a MACBOOK PRO) how bansky is the man. I dont blame bansky really, i mean i get what he is trying to say, but at this point i think he found his idiotic audience who just want to feel good about themselves without having to do any ACTUAL work/research/volunteering/activism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Atom Dowry Firth Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 If the point is for people who see it to think to themselves "that's shit" then it's a resounding success really. I like the glitchy Ariel sculpture, not sure what's supposed to be dismal about her though Edit: lol Pete, I'd forgotten about that place. They should open it up again ironically, it'd do a roaring trade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squee Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 I really liked Exit Through the Gift Shop but that was kinda like the end of all things Banksy to me. His stuff is no longer edgy and... and come on, art that is supposed to be a social commentary is fucking lame. Just make something that's fucking awesome and shut the fuck up.

Just make something that's fucking awesome and shut the fuck up. yeah, the film was a fun watch. to be totally fair. i haven't been to any of the exhibits or seen the statues in person, only seen them online via buzzfeed, etc. and judged them. but man, they never really captured my attention ... i can imagine going to dismaland, walking around and wanting to go home bored.

Let me just rephrase some of that... It's more the people who analyse art to pieces I dislike. The Little Mermaid DOES look cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goDel Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 this basically completes the entire concept (enjoys antagonising squee for a bit. won't start with analysing art though. people should do that for themselves. that's part of their experience) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YO303 Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 There is nothing wrong with the art, I love bansky stuff, but what it now represents is what bansky is "against" which makes me think at this point bansky is some sort of invention by a PR company to corner the armchair activist market.

Silent Member Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Ehm.. sorry, it's fake. It's 3d concept art for a furniture collection, but apparently the real deal is pretty close. Unable to tell if this is real or Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
