"Banksy’s support for the Palestinian people is evident, from his street art throughout the West Bank and Gaza to The Walled Off Hotel in Bethlehem." from Ilesha Magdelena, 26/Mar/2024:
“The thing I hate the most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative and ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists.. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.”

“People say graffiti is ugly, irresponsible and childish... but that's only if it's done properly.”

“Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing. And even if you don't come up with a picture to cure world poverty you can make someone smile while they're having a piss.”
― Banksy, Banging Your Head Against A Brick Wall
