Blog Post #29

The artist who did this artwork is Bansky. This artwork is called "policemen kissing," it was done by Bansky in the year 2005. Bansky is a graffitti artist who I think is changing ourselves/culture/society. The artwork done above, I think Bansky is trying to get people to see that being gay is alright, or at least that's what I think he is trying to say. I think that is what he trying to say because in the background the two yellow signs say "At any time, and "At any time except sun." Those two yellow sings I think mean that homosexuals should always be accepted. I think Bansky is a groundbreaking artist because he is always taking on problems and challenges that are going on today that people don't like to deal with. He expresses his distate and concern of today's problems by expressing them through his graffitti art or as some may like to say his vandalism on property. In his art he also tries to get people to try and solve and think about what he is trying to say through his art and what problems and issue he is trying to take on, and that is why I think he is a groundbreaking artist.
