Popular Post Charlie E Posted August 26, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Whole lot of ugly going on around these parts, Alabama, about face masks. ***Please don't state your opinion, for or against, on them as this isn't the place and nobody really cares what you or I think about it. I think this Banksy art is a fitting response to the issue so I cut it and am offering it on Facebook to any teacher facing the battle on the front lines.

Nobody was interested in it, or didn't want to admit it, so I took the post down rather than seem like I was begging someone to take it. If your daughter would like it I'd gladly mail it to her. I thought it would be a positive piece for a school setting. Just let me know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrappile Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 Ha,,, guess I have been in my basement too long... I don't understand it...and I had never heard of Bansky.

Banksy is a street artist whose works have appeared all over the world, and sold for millions at various auctions. Banksy's identity has never been confirmed by the artist, and his work is usually shrouded in mystery. Once artworks appear, Banksy usually lays claim to them via his official Instagram page. His works often focus on topical societal issues, and make strong political statements. As for understanding it, I'm sure it's different for everyone. For me this one speaks of reacting to conflict peacefully. The fact that he is wearing a mask, for me, just made it appropriate for the current controversy.
