Its like breaking up with an old girlfriend--you think you see her face everywhere!
People are always wanting to spot a Banksy,
but these new sightings are definitely not Banksy pieces.
We
have already covered the Pink Peeing Boy, and while we are not sure who the artist is, it is almost certainly not a Banksy.
And the shot pictured above is not Banksy, either. It is LA street artist X, and it features the guys from Daft Punk.
Photo taken by Stephen and sent in by Alexander.
laist got a weak street art monthly photo column too. they should just source it to you
ReplyDeletestoked to see a new image by x. lets see how long it takes for someone to cut this out of a wall.
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA "Pee" is a tag on this post!
ReplyDeleteThis is awesome..very different from X's usual works. Love the Daft Punk dude...
ReplyDelete@Tam We don't have a monthly street art column, though we do have several photographers who contribute excellent street art photos to our Flickr pool, which we love to share with our readers. We definitely appreciate the wisdom of the sites, like M&F, who are dedicated to properly covering street art in L.A., and source them often.
ReplyDeleteThank you M&F for this post that helps us answer our question today about these two pieces sent to us as possible Banksy pieces. Sad I missed your peeing boy post when I cruised your archives earlier today. Appreciate your great work!
It's nice to see X continue his work around the Daft Punk theme. The pieces he had at the Community Service Confederacy show of this theme were pretty darn awesome ... but I like this one even more.
ReplyDeleteyou should have a section where people can buy stuff from your site. i'd by some of the art that you post. never heard of this artist but i enjoy them.
