Something I read in an interview with Banksy. I really love his honesty and the straightforwardness of this quote.
I think that his art being as accessible as it is to the public and him being as unaccesible as he is really adds to the meaning behind his artwork, which despite what some people might think it really is.
"The art world is the biggest joke going. It’s a rest home for the overprivileged, the pretentious, and the weak. And modern art is a disgrace – never have so many people used so much stuff and taken so long to say so little. Still, the plus side is it’s probably the easiest business in the world to walk into with no talent and make a few bucks."
