Re: Impressed

"The naysayers do have some point - a few years back there was a Banksy hypegasm which gave the air that all of his utterances come inscribed on stones from Mt Sinai."

- And it would be fair to criticize him *if he'd have stepped forward in an ego-sating move and thereby made himself instantly, staggeringly wealthy*. But he hasn't, and still lives on the 'outside' of the art-world glitterati where the likes of Hurst and Miss Attention-seeker-with-a-tent abide.

So any criticism needs to be leveled at the art world and people who created the hypegasm. Slagging off the artist *who has nothing to do with it* is misplaced.
