An iconic Bansky piece.
Can’t wait to snag tickets for the U.S. premiere of Banksy’s “Exit Through the Gift Shop” this Friday? Yeah, me neither. But just because it’s just a few days away doesn’t mean you can’t grab an extended sneak peek of the street art legend’s feature film.
Luckily for all of you, I combed the depths of the Internet and found a video that promises to give you just that.
\”Exit Through the Gift Shop\” Extended Trailer
This forthcoming documentary received rave reviews at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival, but has fallen under fire with a fairly large group of Banksy cult followers which is understandable, but there’s something greater at work here.
People could write Banksy off as the kind of “underground” artist who sold out his art for expanded notoriety and extra cash, but if you take a look at this extended trailer of sorts, I promise that you’ll think twice before writing off one odf the most prolific street artists of our time.
More than anything else, Bansky gives outsiders looking in a first-hand glimpse of the meticulous processes that go into graffiti and the preparation and hard work that comes along with being a front runner for a highly revered (and illegal) art form.
