I know it’s late… about 3 years to be exact (this whole Think of the kittens thing first spread in 2002)

Since I can’t seem to find an archive of it in my email, I thought I would search for it, and post it here just for my own sake in case I want to see it again.

Not sure exactly where the original had appeared (or if there was an archive of it in the internet). The site I got the image from was (you don’t have to view the link since I think mine is better hahaha):

I’ve edited the image to add more “drama.” Well, actually I just wanted to change the lousy typeface of the original.

Here’s the image:

Graffiti, vandalism, policitcal statement, or Art?

Sometimes, there are people who go do the darndest things… but you end up loving them anyways.

Such is a man called Banksy, who is notoriously known (and wanted) in the UK for his penchant of secretly putting up works of art of “subversive political nature” in public places (Parks, Museums, etc.)

His latest work is a six-meter tall bronze statue which depicts Lady Justice as a prostitute wearing leather boots and a thong, in Clerkenwell Green – as protest to the British Legal System.

This news article was a few weeks back, but I only got to post it now since I wanted to include some cool picture along with this entry… which you now see on the left – It’s a doctored version from what you will find in his website.

My hats off to this guy, he’s talented, and what he does makes sense: His method is radical enough to be noticed… but not radical enough to get people harmed/killed. And quite frankly can be classified as art in its own right. An almost if not perfect form of protest… sure beats the hell out of rallies, etc.

Be sure you get to read his thoughts on his website’s “help page.” Sometimes the simplest, and seemingly most ridiculous answers can make so much sense for the simple reason of them being right.
