Banksy is at it again.
he says:
1.7 billion people have no access to clean drinking water. 20 billion (sic) people live below the poverty line. Every day hundreds of people are made to feel physically sick by morons at art shows telling them how bad the world is but never actually doing something about it. Anybody want a free glass of wine?
All this regarding... a painted elephant?
The elephant looks wicked. But its logic is a stretch. Maybe you can use the system to subvert it but you can't be against the system and be within the system. (Or can you?) I understand he doesn't like the art world but he's not exactly feeding the poor with his scathing critique is he? His binary critical art stance is kind of tired. It's so... 20th century, so... last millenium.
I'm sitting here comfortable in my 1st world home giving Banksy the gas face.
