i'm a little tickled by the banksy's getting ripped off and at the same time hope the galleries burst into flames opening night.

I mean, wasn't Exit Through The Gift Shop essentially a manifesto both skewering the art world for embracing street art and celebrating the fact there are dollar bills to be made from said embrace?

hi five.

I saw Swoon has a show at the ICA, Boston which provided a long laugh.

That said, Exit Through the Gift Shop was brilliant.
