Wall and Piece by Banksy

Unfamiliar with Banksy (perhaps exposing my American middle class wankerism), I stumbled across this book browsing Amazon.

I wish I'd stolen it from the bookstore to hide in the library.

This Banksy fellow is a hardcore graffiti artist, employing stencils and humor, often black, to political and social point making.

He's got a website.

Reading this reminds me of Ralph Steadman's The Curse of Lono... I always thought Ralph deserved top billing. Banksy side-steps that and does his own writing.
