an interesting article i read today over at psfk.com on something called the banksy effect.

according to wooster collective, "... banksy has created a market for an entire category of art that until now has not been recognized at the level that it is now being recognized at". they say, "... it's a good thing for artists who are talented and want to make money from their art because those people who can't afford "a banksy" are now learning more and searching out and buying work from other talented artists who are part of the movement".

a clip from cnn on the same issue here.
