Banksy โข Souvenir Wall Sections, by Happy Shopper on Jan 29, 2018 2:05:52 GMT 1, Who is Lush and what makes this more special than all the other walls?
He's a graffiti artist / street artist who painted some of these himself, rather than the standard ones painted by local, unknown artists.
Check him out on Instagram @lushsux

Banksy โข Souvenir Wall Sections, by Happy Shopper on Jan 29, 2018 13:02:13 GMT 1, ?? These were sold from the official shop at the Walled Off. A collaboration type thing. Official, really ? Ahahaha, lovely... So this satirical artist who started as guerilla artist and now famous worldwide for his political and social commentaries criticizing greediness, hypocrisy, etc.; for his love for farces and mockeries of hypocrite world of art and for provoking controversy is having an "official" shop. Waahhh.... And in this "official" shop, an "official" local artist (pretty sure it is Ala, the same one that Carl) made an "official" collaboration copycat-thing with another whatever-official-pussy-specialist artist, which were then sold "officially"? All this sounds very official to me ! Banksy has managed to establish an unofficial-official shop so that local artists can make ends meat to the table by doing their things (that's the reality on the ground, while we speak and read about three-digit art worth decades of local Gaza salaries), well done to him for that. The only "official" thing I see is the official Banksy-bullshit playing with the peculiar cool-person syndrome which has been Banksy's common thread ("No matter how stupid it seems, you have to buy it."), all the rest is very unofficial. But may be that's just me... I understand cool guys around here are calling it official, that's Banksy's master plan, let it be then. I suggest you keep taking the meds.

Ala is a local tour guide that drove 95% of the visitors from here around, he works 20hrs a day grafting between 3 jobs and is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet.

Banksy โข Souvenir Wall Sections, by Happy Shopper on Jan 29, 2018 13:10:52 GMT 1, It's an interesting phenomenon we experience on this forum... Every 6 months / year or so we get another new member who thinks they're the first to see faults in Banksy's work, or hypocrisy to point out, or random, misinformed opinions they have to force on us. They probably don't understand why it gets so tiresome, or why we lose patience.

Banksy โข Souvenir Wall Sections, by Happy Shopper on Jan 29, 2018 13:15:27 GMT 1, I suggest you keep taking the meds. I am already on meds dude. I suggest you speak clearly and explain yourself why it is an official shop. See... I'm having to explain things to you, because you're commenting on things you don't understand and haven't bothered to research for yourself.
It's Banksy's hotel, and it's an official gift shop in the hotel. It raises money to run the hotel and in turn supports the local economy. Brings tourists, pays local artists... allows locals to flip these things to us.
Is that not clear?

Ala is a local tour guide that drove 95% of the visitors from here around, he works 20hrs a day grafting between 3 jobs and is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. I never said the contrary. Ala is very happy than Banksy did this so that he can bring ends meat to the table, for sure. Is my English that bad ? And pretty sure, he is thinking anyone buying "official" art and all the people falling for this (artists and clients) must be pretty rich people, mostly concerned by the be-cool-be-seen-I-have-been-there syndrom.
Its nothing to do with your english.... your post presumed he was an artist and my name was mentioned so I thought id interject with facts.
And yer, im pretty sure banksy is happy the 'be cool' group visited and spent 48k each on grappling hooks or the place might be shut down now and scores of people jobless and homeless (back of hotel is rented out to locals for peanuts)

Alaa genuinely seems to enjoy the art tour side of the work too. Iโm sure itโs something new and a bit different from the usual religious site tours the drivers have been used to.
Alaa talks fondly of both Carl, Lush and other visitors to the hotel, and seemed immensely proud of his help in the artworks around the area.
