Posted by: admin In: Art of the State

Hot on the heels of his work in L.A. (coinciding with the Stateside release of Exit Through The Gift Shop film) further new Banksy work has now appeared in San Francisco. Warholian were pretty much first up with the news and kindly sent these pictures through to be used on artofthestate. Since then several other pieces have [...]

David Cameron’s “I’ll Cut The Deficit, Not The NHS” poster campaign is annoying in the extreme. The adverts just scream ‘do something to me’.

The paper retained a sound stance of sitting on the fence on whether it was a Banksy or not but 47 year old local IT Security engineer Charles London thought it “definitely…genuine”.
