"Banksy x Jamaica" Piece on eBay for $100k
The Afflicted Yard: The Rock from firstjamaica on Vimeo.
This is just insane really...the story is Banksy goes to Jamaica (Yard) and leaves behind a memento on the wall of a bar in Kingston. Unbeknown to him, the brothers from the Jamaican based art & culture website Afflicted Yard were at that very bar! They wait four years, return and remove the wall, document the entire operation and now have it up on the bay for 100 stacks!
If I had Arab money I would pick that joint up in heartbeat! But since I have Jamaican money...I'll retire to my Wall & Piece hardcover and collection of photographs.

Banksy x New Orleans
The elusive rogue artist Banksy has left his mark on New Orleans with some very clever murals. Much of which play on hurricane Katrina, and Louisiana folk tale. It's incredible interesting that it is done on the 3rd anniversary of Katrina, and on the cusp of hurricane Gustav. More photos after the jump.
