forget Damian Hirst

Damian Hirst may be the wealthiest living artist, but I like to challenge the inspirational value of his art. Lesser known, but with much more impact and stories to tell is UK street artist Bansky and a new movie about him and street art in general was recently made ('Exit through the gift shop') and it is amazing what he pulled off. I like his style and the messages, but more for the fact that his art is easily accessible and may or may not last. AJ

  1. I agree - and particularly like your comment about accessability and last-ability of art PJ
