Can't believe this guy is the highest paid artist alive.  Diamond encrusted skull?  Really?

"How To Sell a Banksy" Trailer

Synopsis pulled from the official movie website:

Banksy’s work now reportedly changes hands for millions.
But he puts up his street art for free. Have you ever wondered
what would happen if you got your hands on one of these?
Does it mean you’ve found a winning lottery ticket or just
scraped some worthless crap off a wall?

Going up against the Art Establishment, Critics, Auction Houses,
Gallery Owners and Authentication Boards in a quest for the
elusive meal ticket, two filmmakers unwittingly gatecrash the
murky and protective world of Banksy.

“HOW TO SELL A BANKSY” raises questions of ownership,
authentication and the true value of art itself. Through all the
chaos and incompetence comes a modern-day, true-story,
crime-theft, comedy-caper.

Release date TBA

pretty cool stuff from this Italian designer and illustrator

B-Movie- A Film about Banksy

Exit Through the Giftshop is expected to be nominated at the upcoming Oscars.  Though not quite a film about Banksy, it offers a glimpse into the artist's life.  Rumor has it that his real name is Robert Banks, a 40-something year old Brit.

 Here's a clip of B-Movie:

I can't believe I've never used these before.  Call me old school with my Rustoleum spray cans, but I just discovered the wonders of paint markers.    Love 'em
