The Cans Festival was Banksy’s street art event that took place in London a few months back.
Now, there’s an official time-lapse video of the festival coming together, and it’s a fantastic look at some alternative art coming together and taking shape.
Update on the OK Go video: Josh Spear points out an interesting similarity between the Do What You Want video and Banksy’s Painted Elephant exhibit. What do you think? Coincidence or collaboration (or imitation)?
Banksy, the quite famous graffiti artist, got a little tired of people selling bootleg copies of his work on eBay and profiting off of those who didn’t know better, so he’s decided to give it all away. On his website, he has posted a selection of large, high-res images of many of his most famous pieces for you to download, print out and enjoy. RIAA, are you listening?
