Banksy for President

Uber-artiste Banksy has just pulled off one of the best pranks this century so far. Whilst it’s not exactly a new idea to hang your own art-work in an art gallery, the panache and style he showed whilst entering the Museums of Modern Art and Natural History in New York to hang his own art whilst dressed as an old man show more balls than most. The Tesco tomato soup can says more about art and art appropriation than anything Andy Warhol ever did (IMHO). Culture Jamming at it’s finest.
