Banksy is a Brit. Many consider his work to transcend graffiti. I am no judge of that. Others think he is a sell-out to commercialism, b/c the new film about him, Exit Through The Gift Shop, was showing in Detroit, when the images showed up.

I can see that. My beef with it is that it requires people to put up with it if other folks think that they're too plebeian to understand it. And it just gives license to the hoods to continue tagging their turf.
