Wall and Piece, Banksy

Bansky's book 'Wall and Piece' has been floating around for a while but i have only recently acquired it. Arguing his point that it is madness to outlaw graffiti when advertising is taking over the world, whilst i have been aware and interested in his work for some time it is the first time i have sat and really considered it. I found his work thought-provoking and amusing, and agree that his style is becoming increasing influential. This book has made me consider graffiti and conceptual art in a different way, Banksy gets his messages across clearly without his identity even being known.
