Banksy's Art, by tadghostal on Jul 17, 2007 0:36:22 GMT 1, Banksy does visual art and performance art. In both mediums he has been consistently brilliant in delivering something that is beautiful, witty, cutting and clever. Anybody with that sort of talent is going to be noteworthy and will attract press. That's not to say there hasn't been brilliant management of Banksy PR, but in this instance I would suggest it is not the driving factor.

Its greatness comes from its simplicity, something which is extremely hard to do. People love this stuff as soon as they see it. thats why its got to where it is.
'band wagon-ing' & media hype leave a dirty feeling ... and can confuse this issue

Banksy's Art, by BK83 on Jul 18, 2007 22:19:24 GMT 1, I think the question is incorrectly phrased. Banksy's art doesn't RELY on media stunts. They are an important aesthetic inline with his wall and canvas art. All artists do large scale installations Banksy's just happen to be on the street ... kind of like his artwork in general!!
