"ART TERRORIST" Strikes Again

[matcom]

LONDON -- This image released by the British Museum shows a hoax cave painting of a primitive man pushing a supermarket trolley which was on display in the British Museum. The work was planted by an anonymous "art terrorist" called Banksy and museum staff were after he put a message on his website, saying that the 10in by 6in rock "had remained in the collection for quite some time." This is not the first time Banksy has stuck fake objects to gallery walls and waited to see how long it takes before curators notice. (05/23/05 AP Photo/British Museum/HO)

4. BANKSY is a brilliant, brilliant man! (link to his site)

I just think it says SO MUCH that he gets away with these pranks EVERY TIME!

NONE of his "Unauthorized Placements" have been removed immediately; it always takes at least a few days before anyone notices!

this one always cracks me up:

My next child will be named Banksy - I so love his work! Someday I'll get up the nerve to do some myself :-)
