Recently aired on British TV, here is a very interesting documentary about the original UK street artist King Robbo and the ongoing graffiti war between him and Banksy. This short also features interviews with street artists Blek le Rat, Elate, Ben Eine and others.
Banksy, the world's most well-known unknown street artist, moved into movie production with last year's Oscar-nominated Exit Through The Gift Shop. This year he recently produced a very funny and entertaining British TV documentary called "The Antics Roadshow." While his movie was mostly about himself and other well-known street artists, his new hit TV film highlights some of the world's most famous and funny anarchic pranksters, trolls, imposters, "comic terrorists" and others whose humorous antics are not always well received, especially by the police! Featured within this one-hour documentary are French comic Remi Gaillard, celebrity pie throwing master Noel Godin, the very controversial Russian performance art collective VOINA and more. Be sure to see this documentary before it gets taken down:
The graffiti, found June 24th on a wall at Pyongyang Railroad College reportedly called Kim Jong Il "a dictator who starved people to death." Not exactly Banksy, but it gets the point across.
The easiest thing would have been to erase the graffiti, then maybe demolish the wall for traitorous behavior. But instead, authorities launched a three-day investigation, cutting off the city and erecting checkpoints for all passersby.
The graffiti apparently stated, “Park Chung Hee and Kim Jong Il are both dictators; Park Chung Hee a dictator who developed his country’s economy, Kim Jong Il a dictator who starved people to death.” One syllable was a man's head and was written on a red brick wall in white chalk, making it quite striking.
Now for something completely different - earlier this year, Banksy directed and starred in Exit Through The Gift Shop. A very funny movie about an amateur film maker who attempts to create a documentary about street artists and then, encouraged by Banksy, becomes one himself with some incredible results! Watch this film before it gets taken down. Here is part one:
