Some Underground Street Art From A While Back

So a couple months ago (around April) a big street artist by the name of Banksy came to San Francisco. If you don't know who this is check out Banksy Wiki. He's a huge artist in the UK. Anyway, he came to SF and made some art on some walls. His art is meant to send a message about anti-capitalism, anti-war, anti-government. Basically anarchy. Or socialism. Whichever you prefer. Here are some of his murals.




Also, one of my favorite pieces is a Banksy work. I feel that it sends one of the strongest messages I have ever seen in a mural.

And there you have it. Throw up a comment on some good street art you've seen around the bay, or just your opinion on Banksy and his art. l8z.

  4. Sure Brah. Although, it's not my art (but holy shit I wish it was). It's actually a U.K. based Street Artist by the "name" of Banksy.
