Banksy Does New York Page #3
"got to get in, get my picture.
How do I... aah!"
So, this is on St. Mark's place.
Meet me at the station
meet me 'bout half past 9:00
Banksy is at it again.
All right, banksy strikes again.
He tagged a truck
that cruised around the village.
Folks, brace yourself
'cause... the British are coming?
The British are coming.
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
So, today's banksky is a video.
Today's banksky is a video.
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Banksy really understands the necessity
to make narratives simple
for the mainstream media.
The video piece
that obviously had a reference
to "dumbo"...
The story of dumbo also was connected...
It came out around
the time of world war ii.
"Dumbo" was the code name
used for the u. S. Navy
during the '40s and '50s
to signify search-and-rescue mission.
was to rescue downed American aviators,
as well as seamen in distress.
Allahu akbar!
That video with dumbo
getting shot, right?
And if you look at that audio...
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
Allahu akbar!
...that was actual audio
of militants taking a rocket launcher
and shooting down a real helicopter.
So, while we're all saying like, "oh,
childhood innocence is kind of, like,
cute but sad and whatever, video,"
that was the sound
Allahu akbar!
The helium balloon,
an object of such poetry,
its lightness, its fragility,
its way of wandering on a breeze.
to that most fragile of human emotions.
Oh, brother.
Such a juxtaposition, then,
is a common theme for this artist.
Or, to put it another way,
he just keeps repeating himself.
So, this piece, I think,
was put up there to be
an interactive piece, you know,
because it's, "there's always hope,"
the stencil, the girl with the balloon.
As soon as I saw it,
I was like, "all right,
so I can get a shot."
You know, everybody wants to get
a shot that nobody else has.
And I was trying
to do it as quickly as possible
so everybody else who was there
wouldn't get the same shot.
the audience participation
was a part of this show.
The bandaged heart balloon piece...
You had to stand in front of that piece.
Yes, you had to take a picture, sure.
So, Instagram, yay.
But you had to stand there
to activate the piece.
This piece is obviously
an iconic representation
of the battle to survive a broken heart.
I knew you were gonna do that sh*t, man.
Just in time.
Yeah, it's called spot-jocking.
You put your name or piece
next to somebody else's
who's, like, more famous than you
