I'll tell you what Kreuzberger thinks.
Banksy is one on the world's highest grossing living and important artists because he can communicate complex, multi-dimensional stories in a way which which otherwise politically apathetic U35s can now engage. To see the public at a Banksy exhibition is a joy to behold, and it is also a confirmation of the power of yoof to see them get it and to see the coffin-dodgers whither, open-mouthed, like a freshly-netted tench.
Verdi: "someone ban this sick filth."
Picasso: "my seven year-old can draw doves."
The Clash: "get thee in the shower."
Damien Hirst: "anyone can pickle a shark."
Missy Elliot: "Woman, wha?"
Stormzy: "Uppity..."
When the paramedics turn, remove their gloves, purse their lips, and offer a sympathetic half-smile before my silently stiffening corpse, then you'll know that I might just have given up on expressive, performative, cut-through art which will kick your complacent arse, soon as look at you.
Wear a fucking mask.
