A former public schoolboy from middle-class suburbia, Banksy is perhaps the most famous, or infamous, artist alive. To some a genius, to others a vandal. Always controversial, he inspires admiration and provokes outrage in equal measure. But perhaps his most provocative statement, and the one that generates the most publicity, is the fact that Banksy's true identity has always been a jealously guarded secret, known to only a handful of trusted friends... Until now.. Mail

interesting read!
i remember checking out his show here in los angeles. i missed the elephant, though.
Banksy.
What a load of trash.
I actually find this interesting. Will his work be less in demand now? Was the mystery part of the fun? Also, has Banksy confirmed yet?
Believe it or not archinect broke similar news a year ago - but fear not Banksy can redefine himself when needed
let's see if they can unmask daft punk now. that would be huge.
whether or not his identity has been uncovered, his work has always been focused on anonymity within its public context...
i liked his work before, i like his work now, and as long as he doesn't change, i will like his work in the future...
Banksy looks like my friend's mormon husband. How funny.
