Today’s fresh artist (artist spotlight, artist of the day, the coolest of the cools) is the street vandalism KING, BANKSY. Born and raised in the land of England, this man has been making serious moves on the spreading of his unique messages and exploitation of cultural propaganda. One of the most mysterious thing about Banksy is his utter discreteness when he attacks the city its in the dead of night, but more so than this his identity is shrouded in complete mystery. No one really knows who this guy is, only that he goes by the pseudonym, Banksy.

His art is full of dark humor as he places certain cultural message into the limelight. Some of the quirkiness of his style really plays with the imagination, and when you see his work of art, you can only do one thing, and that is stop in your track and be amazed at the complexity in his simplicity. The message is profound, the method is genius. Banksy, the king of vandalism.
