More quotes by Banksy
Bus stops are far more interesting and useful places to have art than in museums.
Banksy
This is a big surprise I don't agree with the concept of award ceremonies, but I'm prepared to make an exception for the ones I'm nominated for. The last time there was a naked man covered in gold paint in my house, it was me.
Banksy
I used to tell everyone I met to be an artist..... I don't do that any more.
Banksy
Brandalism Any advertisement in public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It belongs to you. It's yours to take, rearrange and re-use. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head.
Banksy
Nothing is black and white, and there is no purity and there is no such thing has justice.
Banksy
There's nothing more dangerous than someone who wants to make the world a better place.
Banksy
It's impossible to predict which paintings will last and which won't. In New Orleans I painted on a dilapidated shop in a street littered with abandoned cars and rotting mattresses, then two hours later the piece was gone. It turned out I'd picked the side of a crack house and the proprietor didn't like the attention.
Banksy
It's a very frustrated feeling you get when the only people with good photos of you work are the police department.
Banksy
Keep your coins, I want change.
Banksy
I don't think you should have to pay to look at graffiti. You should only pay if you want to get rid of it.
Banksy
Film is incredibly democratic and accessible, it's probably the best option if you actually want to change the world, not just re-decorate it.
Banksy
In the future, everybody will be anonymous for 15 minutes.
Banksy
If you are dirty, insignificant and unloved then rats are the ultimate role model.
Banksy
All artists are willing to suffer for their work. But why are so few prepared to learn to draw?
Banksy
I know street art can feel increasingly like the marketing wing of an art career, so I wanted to make some art without the price tag attached. There's no gallery show or book or film. It's pointless. Which hopefully means something.
Banksy
The time of getting fame for your name on its own is over. Artwork that is only about wanting to be famous will never make you famous. Any fame is a by-product of making something that means something. You don't go to a restaurant and order a meal because you want to have a sh*t.
Banksy
You don't need planning permission to build castles in the sky
Banksy
Nothing in the world is more common than unsuccessful people with talent, leave the house before you find something worth staying in for.
Banksy
You're advised not to drink the replica Arab spring water.
Banksy
People either love me or they hate me, or they don't really care.
