Today we're focused on street art, and more specifically the graffiti based work of 'Banksy'. The enigmatic British street artist has been steadily gaining recognition for his dynamic and thought provoking pieces created on back alley brick walls and billboards and across the world. What we like about these works is their Warholian idealism and the process of using iconic images to turn the public's preconceived notions upside down.
Lesser known copy-cat 'Mr. Brainwash' is another street artist, even more Warholian in his approach - going as far as to hire an entire team to stage his debut into the art world in Los Angeles. What we admire about these two is their adaptation in a world where everything has been done - creating work that is new and relevant.
