Street art is visual art created in public locations, usually unsanctioned artwork executed outside of the context of traditional art venues. Do you like it?
In 2005 Banksy painted the artwork, that was called “Love is in the air”. We can see a masked man throwing flowers in to the air. The graffiti was auctioned for more than 100.000 dollars it was auctioned in the house of London. It was painted in 2005 on the wall that divides Israel from Palestine. The background is white. The person who throws the flowers, is in black and white and the flowers, are the only thing that is in colour yellow, red and violet. The graffiti message seems to be anti-capitalist. By means of throwing the flowers the message may mean less wat and peace. In conclusion his most representative works with anti-capitalist messages are the most expensive. In my opinion Banksy has the courage to paint a graffiti in that area. I could not do it. My brother also does graffiti, his artistic name is “Boom”. Compared to Banksy, he does not transmit an anti-capitalist message; “Boom” paints his artistic name and expresses himself by the shape and colors of painting it. In my opinion, I really like urban art. It is good that young people express their opinions thanks to art. I would not agree that graffiti would be in museums. That the graffitis should remain in the street, but done with permission.
Bansky is on of street artist, his identity is secret. Apparently he was born is Bristo un 1975. In his paintings, he combines writing with drawing with the use of stencil. Most of his works leave a message, the colors depend on what he wonts to say in that message. For example his graffiti "someone to take out the trash". For me strect art is a god way to express yourself. " Sonrie" is one of his works that reflects a man pasting advertising with sad face, the colors he uses in the personas are dark colors: black, white and gra, the background is green and the advertising reflected with happy face. Maybe, the message that he wants to express is that happiness that advertising tries to show us is not what is reflected in the face of society especially the workers. Dave warnke is another artist of street and compared to Bansky his graffitis have many colors and on artist that the characteristics of his paintings are more similar to those of Bansky is John Fekner that uses the range of colors. For me, urban art is a good way for artists to express themselves or say what society does not dare to say.
bansky is a street artist, apparenty born in Bristol and he is a mysterious artist.He makes interventions in paintings in museums. He was born in 1975. I selected "the girl o the globe" tu analyse. It's one of the most famous works of the artist. It's about me need favor of peace in Siria. The work is done in black and white with a red balloon. The original work decorated the facade of a London building fifteen years ago, but is was sold for a price that coold esceeded usd 812.000. three years often war began in Siria, the Bristish graffiti artist has areated his a work to call for the end of the Siria conflict. You can compare with the panting called Avnery, the fourletter word that is playing a soldier. you can see the Bansky's works in clothing, that means that he has transpassed al kinds of expressions. I love Bansky's paintings the one has a different and inspiring message. They are very and meaning ful tomany people.
Banksy is a nickname of a street artist, He's from Bristol UK, and is said to be at least 42 years old, and to this date it's not known what his true identity's. Banksy toured all over the world to paint his works of art or graffiti.his graffiti often has a message against capitalism or wars and in his graffiti usually uses muted colors so that the message is serious.
In this graffiti "No body like me", you can see a child who cries because he does not have (for example: followers, likes and messages),what today can be called popular.In my opinion, it also talks about how childhood was lost. it looks good with the example of the child who reproaches for what he did not get in social networks.
Graffitis by Banksy To try to understand his works, first we need know more about him. Banksy is a mysterious street artist who was born in Great Britain, but as he keep his identity in secret, we know nothing accurate about him.It's believed that he was born in the early 1970s near Bristol. His works are controversial because they deal with topics that "are thought-provoking and shed light upon issues of public concern that local authorities like to hide". The graffiti that I chose was painted on a wall of Manchester in 2002. If we observe the painting, we can see a leopard to the right of a trailer that is carrying a bar code with some twisted bars as if they were forced. All the image is black and white, and it was painted with the stencil technique. I believe that Banksy wants to represent with the bar code the traffic of animals, used for sell or human entertainment- in this graffiti maybe he as painted a leopard, it refers to punctually to feline's traffic. In my opinion, the topics that he deals in his works are so important/relevant to generate conscience in our society. For this reason, I consider that the street art is a good way of expression and it allows to communicate a message at the same time that embellishes a public space. But I think that in some cases, the people that interfere a public or private space, make it just for vandalism and their actions spoil the concept that common people have about street art.
Banksy is an anonymous street artist but it is generally believed that he was born in 1970s and grew up in Bristol, a large city in the West of England. One of his works is called "Escapism" and it shows a young child with a brush in his hand as if he had just finished a stair, which is above the kid and goes all the way till the top of the wall. This piece of art is located in the wall that devides Palestine and Israel (Israeli West Bank Barrier). The wall is a separation barrier in the West Bank or along the Green Line. Israel considers it's a security barrier against terrorism, while Palestinians call it a racial segregation or apartheid wall. "Escapism" was made in 2005 and it belongs to a series of paintings, all of them are located on the wall in the cities of Abu Dis, Bethlehem and Romalá. This painting is achromatic, the kid in it is made with a stencil which Banksy usually works with and the stair is simply done in white. This work has the principal characteristics of banksy's graffities such as "panda with guns" and "rage, flower thrower". I think this graffiti shows someone trying to scape from his reality, in this case, a little kid who is supposed to be playing whit others and having fun but instead he is trying to find a way to leave the city where he is from to have a better life.
In a series of oil paintings displayed in the Tate Britain in 2003, Banksy made a statement of the effect daytime television had on British society. The paintings were unsigned oils Banksy found in street markets that depicted the English landscape, however intertwined with police tape, trash and advertisement. This series marked a departure from his previous works by using other artists' paintings, yet it carried over most of his traditional style: making an intervention on what's established, modifying it and sending a message at the same time. In Banksy's own words: "If you want to survive as a graffiti artist indoors [...] (you have to) paint over things that don't belong to you there either". What Banksy supposedly meant with this painting was to visualize the way people now sees the English landscape and urban scenarios. True-crime shows, news coverage of murders and sensationalist outlets modified the people's perception of the country they lived in, "now filled with fear and paranoia of violent crimes and paedophilia" (theguardian.com). "[...] Any visit to a secluded beauty spot now feels like it may result in being molested of finding discarded body parts" says the presentation glued next to the painting in the Tate. But how did a painting dealing with such gruesome themes get included in one of the most prestigious museums? It wasn't meant to be there. As part of a planned stunt, Banksy cut out the middleman (the curator) and, disguised as a pensioner, glued his graffiti next to an 19th century painting for several hours. The painting fell after the glue melted, exposing the stunt. This type of feats aren't strange to Banksy's behaviour, having painted on an elephant a pink wallpaper to send a message about world poverty (which earned him criticism). Subversive, thought-provoking, anti-capitalist and non conformist are a few of the words that define him. But foremost mysterious. Banksy' entire life is a total mystery, his identity, age and even his face remain only rumours. The only thing certain is that he's British. Why so much secrecy? Because it keeps him as a person of public interest, and keeps people hooked on his work. Mystery is a great selling point, take for example the Count of Monte Cristo. A man with a vendetta makes himself a place within society because of his mysterious personality. The audience doesn't really want a mystery explained to them, they want to be thrilled, intrigued. And in an time where everybody can know everything about everyone, Banksy' identity remaining a secret is his biggest asset. Personally I think his works are always pointed at showing the common people or audience the ugly truth. Those tiny bits of our everyday life that we decide to ignore, Banksy makes us confront them. Contamination, war, hypocrisy, excess, exploitation, political and social injustice are recurrent motifs both present in Banksy and most of urban art, which also symbolizes its status as a force against the system. To say the least: art made by the people and for the people.
Banksy is the pseudonym of a prolific British street art artist. He was born in Bristol, in 1975. Although the data on his identity is uncertain. hiis works are based on politics, pop culture, morality, ethnics, combines writings with graffiti (stencil). this work by banksy is so fascinating. its meaning reveals itself in the image man can be the one or like any other person. the meaning is in making love and not war. the bouquet of flowers is a sign of peace and love and in that one place you use primary colors on the other side all gray and black For bansky in society it is very important not to live in war but in harmony. in my opinion banksy is one of the best graffiti artists for his revolutionary idea, he wanted to make his own revolution and convey the message of manifesting himself through graffiti or murals
The screenprint is by Banksy,who is probably the best known graffiti artist working today in britain. The "Virgin Mary" frequently refered to as "Toxic Mary" I'ts the most powerfull critiques at the organised relgion. Banksy shows this in "turf war" exibihtion in 2003, the location of wich was kept secret until just a day before the event when an email was sent out giving a adress of a deserted warehouse in dalston, East London. Toxic mary has take of the virgin mary and child. His satirization of their familial relationship. In this painting, can see how that a lot of mothers feeds his children with false ideologics and not let them be themselves. I'ts style is made with spray-painted with falling appearence. A print showing the virgin mary bottlefeeding jesus in black and white tradicional of banksy, exept for the "milk bottle", the dangerous bottle of knowledge and ideologics, is represented with gold. The side of the bottle has the skull and crossbones, simbol of poison, on the side. The background is grey and the figures seem to drip ink towards the bottom as tough the image has just been spray-painted, with litografia style.
In my opinion the urban art is the way in wich artist expresses the needs of the society's demands and critictsms. In i'ts different forms of expression, this artist proposed to show these feelings either by ( Music , dance , painting , etc..) This job, represented how i see the religion and fake believes.
Banksy is the pseudonym with the most representative artist of art street of today. He is a graffitti artist, poitical activist, fim director and painter. Despite of being internationally famous, he has managed to keep his identity in secret. he grew up in a town near Bristol in 1974 and then moved to the city, where he spent his youth painting the world. In the 80s he started street painting, using spray directly on the wall. But this technique required time, which made it very risky and it was an illegal art. Due to this, he began to use cardboard templates created by himself that sprayed with a spray for cars and that allowed the speed, he needed in the realization of the murals, making them more impactful. Banksy began painting rats that filled the streets of Bristol, which served as an instrument for his mocking criticism of the system. His work often includes slogans, usually with an anti-war, anti-capitalist or anti-establishment menssage.
Mobile Phone Lovers – Bristol
It is a graffiti painted on the door of a club in Bristol in June 2014 and was taken down by a man, to be later sold and raise funds for the club, with the authorization of banksy. It is called Mobile Lovers and presents a couple hugging while each look at the screen of their phones that illuminate their faces. I think that this graffiti represents the society of today, that are all the time with the tecnology. In which the technological and social reality that we live is reflected, which makes us more aware of the relationships or moments we live, that is, it shows what we live more and more as a result of new technologies, society where there virtual contact and the physical is being lost, where the communicative revolution that the telephones generate is created, with just going out to the street this is shown, people who walk watching their screens without observing their surroundings.
This painting compared with smiley grim reaper death, is a painting that does not have color, or it does, but in scale of grays, on the other hand, the other has different colors like the blue and yellow, which demonstratres that banksy does not use many colors for its art. Also while the two criticize somethings of the society, in the first question there is ab eccessive use of technologies, on the other hand in the second, i think that he wants to demonstrate the double mask of that bad with what we live, but by his mask we dont see the truth, because behind the face, death is seen.
In conclusion the Street Art is an artistic expression made in the street illegally but it must be legalized, since like many recognized "legal" artists, they paint their paintings in picture and then exhibit them in museums and maybe sold them, without people of low economy can enjoy the wonderful art, on the other hand street art, is seen in all parts of the world, everyone can learn this art, the revolutionary, without borders, showing realities, the art that makes banksy, art street.
Banksy is a graffity painter, he is Britanish, nobody knows his name.His style is stencil-based. He was born in Bristol in the year 1975. There are documentaries that talk about ¨Exit throught the gift shop¨. I choose this grafitti..... because it catches my attention. In The image it is written ¨Fat lane¨ and overweight people appear. In my opinion Banksy wanted to refer to the people who were passing by the way and in the image there were several people but two are highlighted.
The urban art had first beginnings around 79 a.c they look the first graffitis in the stones. In my opinion the art is so interesting. Somo people have a talent, they have a way of expressing what they think. This art almost always is ilegal but works like ar icon in several places. Nobody should pay to see the art is in the streets. They are other ways of artistic expressions, posters and stickers, not only is graffiti. I m very bad for graffite but i like to seed it and i think something that embellishes
Lautaro Villa I prefer the artwork where two policemen are kissing each other because I believe it has much content, opinion and impact on people. When people see two men or women kissing they think that it is ugly and disgusting because people may be close minded, and do not accept homosexuality. Why are there two policemen and not two ordinary people? What is the need? ¿What is the reason? The most people hate the police, and then the artist mixes homosexuality and this institution to generate a higher impact on people. The message of graffiti is that the policemen can also be homosexual and vicevers, all people must accept the free expression of the all sexual groups. I am in favor of the street art as long as the graffiti and paints have a motive or reason as I don´t like vandalism. this artwork causes me some impact and rejection, I don´t hate homosexuality but I don´t like to see kissing… maybe I am close minded in the sense, I respect to homosexuality and I am in favor of the free expression but personality I don´t like see, it´s generate disgust in me. The image of street art has basic colors for example: black and white. It´s seems a basic and ordinary artwork for its colors but if we see further more we can appreciate the content and may cause us an impact more profound because of this palette. The style of this artwork is vanguards, this art works was created in 2005 in England, in the city of Brighton, it was sold for USD 575,000. Banksy made this art work to show that for love there are no limits and does not understand sex, race or professions. Apparently he was born in Bristol in 1974; he won the “Independent Spirit Award of the best Documental”. In most of his works, he expresses about Politics, pop culture and ethnicity. He makes his arts works with graffiti, writing and stencils. Seemingly his name is Robert Del Naja and he is 42 years old. He has a web site “banksy.co.uk”, in the web site don´t use this page in phone because don´t have a mobile version. The urban art or street art is one form the express your point of view about world and different topics, or simply demonstrate your talent it´s a visual art gender but this type of art is illegal. In my opinion I believe this type is good for people as long as has a porpoise and do not be vandalism
Rage, Flower Thrower, by the artist Banksy is a painting of a man wearing a handkerchief and baseball cap throwing a bouquet of flowers. The man is black and white; the flowers and the stems growing from the wrapper are in color. The image is reminiscent of images from the 1960s campus and Street riots. There is anger and frustration in the posture of the man, bombing the establishment with flower. The flowers themeselves, done in color, show a hope for peaceful resolution of our conflics. In a few words, it means that we should invest our efforts in our peace. It’s a very interesting art print to say the least. This graffiti was made made in a stencil mode. This graffiti was displayed in the wall that divides Israel from Palestine and was auctioned for more that U$D 100.000 For me this piece of art is stencil, it makes you to stare at it and take your time to appreciate it. I am a fan of this type of street art because it’s a modern way of sharing a strong message and bring awareness to a cause. I really like to see them when I am driving, and sometimes I stop my car and I spend a few minutes seeing it, trying to understand it. Picture.
This graffitti was painted by Bansky, an English´s artist who is anonymous (in others words, we don’t know a lot of exact things about him). In this painting there is a starving who is asking for food (he’s very skinny) and also he’s wearing a Burger King’s Crown. All we know is that this type of business like Mc Donald’s or Burger King sell fast food all around the world, and make a lot of money, they are millonaire!!!! So, how can we explain the existened of hunger in the world? It’s simple, there´s social inequality. In this graffitti we can observe a boy who can’t eat because he has nothing in his bowl, but there exist people who have more than what they can spend… The message that I think that Bansky wanted to show is that we must realize what’s happening today in the world: “Many have Little but few have much”. About the style I could say that Bansky made this graffitti by using the stencil; the colors are opaque and fuzzy. Many people are trying by different types of art (not only graffitti) like movies, poems, books, songs, etc. to transmit their concern about this world wide problem: “the hunger”. There are women, kids, men, old people, babies, in short, a big number of people who are dying slowly because they don’t have food or water, their bodies are eating their muscles until they can’t move more, people are dying right now and few are doing something to stop it… We must stop consuming multinational companies’s products, because they promote this sistem, and also they destroy the envioroment with their factories. We have to do something to change the life of this people who don’t have to eat… To conclude, I believe that we should be more supportive, we have to understand that we are lucly because we live in a place that has a lot of resources, so we aren’t going to die of huger, but maybe there are people in another side of the world that have nothing to eat so probably they will die for this reason. I believe that Bansky is one of these people who is trying to change the world. Just do it!!!
Banksy is the pseudonym of a graffiti artist. Apparently, he was born in the coast of Bristol early in 1970´. Despite being internationally famous he has managed to keep his identify is secret. This graffiti “A better world” it was painting by Banksy. He painted in “the wall of shame” and it´s situate near Bethlehem. It was painted in 2005 on the wall that divides Cisjordania and Palestine. To make this graffiti, he entered illegally from Egypt into Gaza through a clandestine network of tunnels that the inhabitants kept in the area, which is isolated from the rest of the world by the Israeli Army. Palestine has been occupied by the Israeli government began build a wall separating the occupied territories from Israel, much of it illegal under international law. It´s controlled by a series of check points and observation towers, stands three times the height of the Berlin wall and will eventually run for over 700 km – the distance of London to Zurich-. Banksy's work on the wall is strategically painted through nine graffiti In Ramallah, a few meters from the checkpoint, where the Palestinians try to pass to Jerusalem; he painted an image of two children playing with a cube and a shovel, under an image of a paradisiacal beach. The artist, usually paints his works with stencils and at most a color besides black and white. In this occasion, he highlighted the cube and the paradisiacal beach. The message of this graffiti is anti-war. With his "art", he tries to condemn that the international community sanctions with conscience, ignored with impunity by Israel, something that denounces with the spray. It seems to me this graffiti represents that with this wall, he wants to say that there is a better life on the other side of the wall. And this kind of war isn´t good for anyone, since nobody should go through these things.
Graffity Analisis: Pulp Fiction Bananas Banksy is the tag name of a street artist. He's anonymous because he doesn't want people to know his true identity. It is said that he's British and was born in Bristol. "Pulp Fiction Bananas" is the name of a stencil graffiti work made by Banksy. We can observe the characters starred by Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta in the famous film. On the painting, their guns are replaced by bananas. The piece is simple, in black and white, except for the yellow bananas. Pulp Fiction is a satyrical adventure about violence. I think the graffiti art is an interesting and ironic tribute to the movie because may be laughting at violence and the world of Hollywood. And I love Mia Wallace and her bad attitude, so that's why I chose that work. It is located on a wall near the Old Street tube Station in the City of London from 2002 to 2007. Prints of the image have been sold for €1.000
In 2005 Banksy painted the artwork, that was called “Love is in the air”. We can see a masked man throwing flowers in to the air. The graffiti was auctioned for more than 100.000 dollars it was auctioned in the house of London. It was painted in 2005 on the wall that divides Israel from Palestine. The background is white. The person who throws the flowers, is in black and white and the flowers, are the only thing that is in colour yellow, red and violet.
ResponderEliminarThe graffiti message seems to be anti-capitalist. By means of throwing the flowers the message may mean less wat and peace. In conclusion his most representative works with anti-capitalist messages are the most expensive. In my opinion Banksy has the courage to paint a graffiti in that area. I could not do it.
My brother also does graffiti, his artistic name is “Boom”. Compared to Banksy, he does not transmit an anti-capitalist message; “Boom” paints his artistic name and expresses himself by the shape and colors of painting it.
In my opinion, I really like urban art. It is good that young people express their opinions thanks to art. I would not agree that graffiti would be in museums. That the graffitis should remain in the street, but done with permission.

" Sonrie" is one of his works that reflects a man pasting advertising with sad face, the colors he uses in the personas are dark colors: black, white and gra, the background is green and the advertising reflected with happy face.
Maybe, the message that he wants to express is that happiness that advertising tries to show us is not what is reflected in the face of society especially the workers.
Dave warnke is another artist of street and compared to Bansky his graffitis have many colors and on artist that the characteristics of his paintings are more similar to those of Bansky is John Fekner that uses the range of colors.
For me, urban art is a good way for artists to express themselves or say what society does not dare to say.

this work by banksy is so fascinating. its meaning reveals itself in the image man can be the one or like any other person. the meaning is in making love and not war. the bouquet of flowers is a sign of peace and love and in that one place you use primary colors on the other side all gray and black For bansky in society it is very important not to live in war but in harmony.
in my opinion banksy is one of the best graffiti artists for his revolutionary idea, he wanted to make his own revolution and convey the message of manifesting himself through graffiti or murals
Good work!
EliminarThe screenprint is by Banksy,who is probably the best known graffiti artist working today in britain.
ResponderEliminarThe "Virgin Mary" frequently refered to as "Toxic Mary"
I'ts the most powerfull critiques at the organised relgion.
Banksy shows this in "turf war" exibihtion in 2003, the location of wich was kept secret until just a day before the event when an email was sent out giving a adress of a deserted warehouse in dalston, East London. Toxic mary has take of the virgin mary and child. His satirization of their familial relationship.
In this painting, can see how that a lot of mothers feeds his children with false ideologics and not let them be themselves.
I'ts style is made with spray-painted with falling appearence. A print showing the virgin mary bottlefeeding jesus in black and white tradicional of banksy, exept for the "milk bottle", the dangerous bottle of knowledge and ideologics, is represented with gold. The side of the bottle has the skull and crossbones, simbol of poison, on the side. The background is grey and the figures seem to drip ink towards the bottom as tough the image has just been spray-painted, with litografia style.
In my opinion the urban art is the way in wich artist expresses the needs of the society's demands and critictsms.
In i'ts different forms of expression, this artist proposed to show these feelings either by ( Music , dance , painting , etc..)
This job, represented how i see the religion and fake believes.
Toxic mary.
Great job!
EliminarBanksy is the pseudonym with the most representative artist of art street of today. He is a graffitti artist, poitical activist, fim director and painter. Despite of being internationally famous, he has managed to keep his identity in secret. he grew up in a town near Bristol in 1974 and then moved to the city, where he spent his youth painting the world.
ResponderEliminarIn the 80s he started street painting, using spray directly on the wall. But this technique required time, which made it very risky and it was an illegal art. Due to this, he began to use cardboard templates created by himself that sprayed with a spray for cars and that allowed the speed, he needed in the realization of the murals, making them more impactful.
Banksy began painting rats that filled the streets of Bristol, which served as an instrument for his mocking criticism of the system. His work often includes slogans, usually with an anti-war, anti-capitalist or anti-establishment menssage.
Mobile Phone Lovers – Bristol
It is a graffiti painted on the door of a club in Bristol in June 2014 and was taken down by a man, to be later sold and raise funds for the club, with the authorization of banksy. It is called Mobile Lovers and presents a couple hugging while each look at the screen of their phones that illuminate their faces.
I think that this graffiti represents the society of today, that are all the time with the tecnology. In which the technological and social reality that we live is reflected, which makes us more aware of the relationships or moments we live, that is, it shows what we live more and more as a result of new technologies, society where there virtual contact and the physical is being lost, where the communicative revolution that the telephones generate is created, with just going out to the street this is shown, people who walk watching their screens without observing their surroundings.
This painting compared with smiley grim reaper death, is a painting that does not have color, or it does, but in scale of grays, on the other hand, the other has different colors like the blue and yellow, which demonstratres that banksy does not use many colors for its art. Also while the two criticize somethings of the society, in the first question there is ab eccessive use of technologies, on the other hand in the second, i think that he wants to demonstrate the double mask of that bad with what we live, but by his mask we dont see the truth, because behind the face, death is seen.
In conclusion the Street Art is an artistic expression made in the street illegally but it must be legalized, since like many recognized "legal" artists, they paint their paintings in picture and then exhibit them in museums and maybe sold them, without people of low economy can enjoy the wonderful art, on the other hand street art, is seen in all parts of the world, everyone can learn this art, the revolutionary, without borders, showing realities, the art that makes banksy, art street.
Well done!!!!!!
EliminarBanksy is a graffity painter, he is Britanish, nobody knows his name.His style is stencil-based. He was born in Bristol in the year 1975. There are documentaries that talk about ¨Exit throught the gift shop¨.
ResponderEliminarI choose this grafitti..... because it catches my attention. In The image it is written ¨Fat lane¨ and overweight people appear. In my opinion Banksy wanted to refer to the people who were passing by the way and in the image there were several people but two are highlighted.
The urban art had first beginnings around 79 a.c they look the first graffitis in the stones.
In my opinion the art is so interesting. Somo people have a talent, they have a way of expressing what they think.
This art almost always is ilegal but works like ar icon in several places. Nobody should pay to see the art is in the streets.
They are other ways of artistic expressions, posters and stickers, not only is graffiti.
I m very bad for graffite but i like to seed it and i think something that embellishes
Great contribution!

ResponderEliminarI prefer the artwork where two policemen are kissing each other because I believe it has much content, opinion and impact on people. When people see two men or women kissing they think that it is ugly and disgusting because people may be close minded, and do not accept homosexuality. Why are there two policemen and not two ordinary people? What is the need? ¿What is the reason? The most people hate the police, and then the artist mixes homosexuality and this institution to generate a higher impact on people. The message of graffiti is that the policemen can also be homosexual and vicevers, all people must accept the free expression of the all sexual groups. I am in favor of the street art as long as the graffiti and paints have a motive or reason as I don´t like vandalism. this artwork causes me some impact and rejection, I don´t hate homosexuality but I don´t like to see kissing… maybe I am close minded in the sense, I respect to homosexuality and I am in favor of the free expression but personality I don´t like see, it´s generate disgust in me.
The image of street art has basic colors for example: black and white. It´s seems a basic and ordinary artwork for its colors but if we see further more we can appreciate the content and may cause us an impact more profound because of this palette. The style of this artwork is vanguards, this art works was created in 2005 in England, in the city of Brighton, it was sold for USD 575,000.
Banksy made this art work to show that for love there are no limits and does not understand sex, race or professions. Apparently he was born in Bristol in 1974; he won the “Independent Spirit Award of the best Documental”. In most of his works, he expresses about Politics, pop culture and ethnicity. He makes his arts works with graffiti, writing and stencils. Seemingly his name is Robert Del Naja and he is 42 years old. He has a web site “banksy.co.uk”, in the web site don´t use this page in phone because don´t have a mobile version.
The urban art or street art is one form the express your point of view about world and different topics, or simply demonstrate your talent it´s a visual art gender but this type of art is illegal. In my opinion I believe this type is good for people as long as has a porpoise and do not be vandalism
Well done! Congrats!

Rage, Flower Thrower, by the artist Banksy is a painting of a man wearing a handkerchief and baseball cap throwing a bouquet of flowers. The man is black and white; the flowers and the stems growing from the wrapper are in color.
The image is reminiscent of images from the 1960s campus and Street riots. There is anger and frustration in the posture of the man, bombing the establishment with flower. The flowers themeselves, done in color, show a hope for peaceful resolution of our conflics. In a few words, it means that we should invest our efforts in our peace. It’s a very interesting art print to say the least.
This graffiti was made made in a stencil mode. This graffiti was displayed in the wall that divides Israel from Palestine and was auctioned for more that U$D 100.000
For me this piece of art is stencil, it makes you to stare at it and take your time to appreciate it. I am a fan of this type of street art because it’s a modern way of sharing a strong message and bring awareness to a cause. I really like to see them when I am driving, and sometimes I stop my car and I spend a few minutes seeing it, trying to understand it.
Picture.
Good Job!!!

ResponderEliminarThis graffitti was painted by Bansky, an English´s artist who is anonymous (in others words, we don’t know a lot of exact things about him). In this painting there is a starving who is asking for food (he’s very skinny) and also he’s wearing a Burger King’s Crown.
All we know is that this type of business like Mc Donald’s or Burger King sell fast food all around the world, and make a lot of money, they are millonaire!!!! So, how can we explain the existened of hunger in the world? It’s simple, there´s social inequality.
In this graffitti we can observe a boy who can’t eat because he has nothing in his bowl, but there exist people who have more than what they can spend… The message that I think that Bansky wanted to show is that we must realize what’s happening today in the world: “Many have Little but few have much”.
About the style I could say that Bansky made this graffitti by using the stencil; the colors are opaque and fuzzy. Many people are trying by different types of art (not only graffitti) like movies, poems, books, songs, etc. to transmit their concern about this world wide problem: “the hunger”. There are women, kids, men, old people, babies, in short, a big number of people who are dying slowly because they don’t have food or water, their bodies are eating their muscles until they can’t move more, people are dying right now and few are doing something to stop it… We must stop consuming multinational companies’s products, because they promote this sistem, and also they destroy the envioroment with their factories. We have to do something to change the life of this people who don’t have to eat…
To conclude, I believe that we should be more supportive, we have to understand that we are lucly because we live in a place that has a lot of resources, so we aren’t going to die of huger, but maybe there are people in another side of the world that have nothing to eat so probably they will die for this reason. I believe that Bansky is one of these people who is trying to change the world.
Just do it!!!
Excellent work!!!!
EliminarBanksy is the pseudonym of a graffiti artist. Apparently, he was born in the coast of Bristol early in 1970´. Despite being internationally famous he has managed to keep his identify is secret.
ResponderEliminarThis graffiti “A better world” it was painting by Banksy. He painted in “the wall of shame” and it´s situate near Bethlehem. It was painted in 2005 on the wall that divides Cisjordania and Palestine. To make this graffiti, he entered illegally from Egypt into Gaza through a clandestine network of tunnels that the inhabitants kept in the area, which is isolated from the rest of the world by the Israeli Army.
Palestine has been occupied by the Israeli government began build a wall separating the occupied territories from Israel, much of it illegal under international law. It´s controlled by a series of check points and observation towers, stands three times the height of the Berlin wall and will eventually run for over 700 km – the distance of London to Zurich-.
Banksy's work on the wall is strategically painted through nine graffiti In Ramallah, a few meters from the checkpoint, where the Palestinians try to pass to Jerusalem; he painted an image of two children playing with a cube and a shovel, under an image of a paradisiacal beach. The artist, usually paints his works with stencils and at most a color besides black and white. In this occasion, he highlighted the cube and the paradisiacal beach.
The message of this graffiti is anti-war. With his "art", he tries to condemn that the international community sanctions with conscience, ignored with impunity by Israel, something that denounces with the spray. It seems to me this graffiti represents that with this wall, he wants to say that there is a better life on the other side of the wall. And this kind of war isn´t good for anyone, since nobody should go through these things.
good work!
ResponderEliminarGraffity Analisis: Pulp Fiction Bananas
ResponderEliminarBanksy is the tag name of a street artist. He's anonymous because he doesn't want people to know his true identity. It is said that he's British and was born in Bristol.
"Pulp Fiction Bananas" is the name of a stencil graffiti work made by Banksy. We can observe the characters starred by Samuel L. Jackson and John Travolta in the famous film.
On the painting, their guns are replaced by bananas. The piece is simple, in black and white, except for the yellow bananas.
Pulp Fiction is a satyrical adventure about violence. I think the graffiti art is an interesting and ironic tribute to the movie because may be laughting at violence and the world of Hollywood. And I love Mia Wallace and her bad attitude, so that's why I chose that work.
It is located on a wall near the Old Street tube Station in the City of London from 2002 to 2007. Prints of the image have been sold for €1.000
