Banksy - Steam Roller Traffic Warden, by digitalkid on Aug 28, 2009 17:18:16 GMT 1, Why isn't this on the main board, this is after all a Banksy forum. Some people dont like all the talk of Print releases and Gallery shows on the other board, so idealy this board should be the home of all Street & Graffiti chat. Im trying to help keep people happy by doing this  I know it might be changing a few habits of people who only look at the other board, but they are missing out if they dont look around a bit at some of the other sections available on the forum. Thanks
This forum has far to many boards to keep an eye on them all and it's no wonder people are leaving to go elsewhere - Just my 2p...
Great street piece btw but not sure it's a Banksy, looks a bit naff in the detail..

At least be consistent then, as the thread for the other new Banksy street piece is on the main board.

that one is definitely not a banksy
1) too similar to last graffiti
2) scale is completely off
3) does not fit his style in any way at all
4) no use of the surroundings
5) the text slopes down because the placement of the stencil is wrong

Banksy - Steam Roller Traffic Warden, by low3 on Aug 29, 2009 0:52:00 GMT 1, on the plus side, the roller warden is class. Banksy placement at it's best. Having said that, the image isn't quite as good as his recent efforts. However, it does give you that smirk that only mr b seems to be able to manage, with its placement.
Quite intelligent too, cos there's no way Vermin could get that roller removed without rolling it and thus ruining the image. Well thought out mr b, throwaway art like no-one else!!!

Banksy - Steam Roller Traffic Warden, by achtungbono on Sept 1, 2009 8:35:41 GMT 1, I would say its not a banksy.Not in a million years
traffic wardens are an unoriginal hate figure for stealth tax conspiracists, UKIP fiends daily mail and sun readers. Cant see banksy going down this humour free, borderline distasteful populist route .
There a re a great many rubbish artists hanging around Goldsmiths with nothing to do - ots only a mile away from Lewisham

Banksy - Steam Roller Traffic Warden, by twist65 on Sept 1, 2009 13:32:54 GMT 1, I reckon he loves the speculation, hence not posting on his site and not Banksy-tagging new work. It must be quite funny reading all the is it/isn't it? discussions, people convinced either way etc. It also allows the local press to run "new Banksy piece?" front pages... Or maybe he is just paranoid in case someone is filming the creation of these pieces, so by not autographing them he can deny its him if it comes on top...
