A Voice

Occasionally you come across something that tweaks your perspective. An ad, perhaps. Maybe an ad for a cause. Or maybe some artwork for a cause. Because ads are messages, concepts and communications for the masses and they are art. I just happened to stumble across such “ads”. They come from a graffiti artist named Banksy. He operates in London England and I love his stuff. I read about it in the latest Esquire magazine after a friend, Joao, told me about the article. Banksy was voted Esquire's Artist of the Year. There’s some of this kind of activist art in NYC. But this stuff is more intrieguing than anything I’ve seen yet. Enjoy it. It’s thought provoking stuff.
