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.
Banksy is a legendddddddd

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.
