Coming Attraction: Banksy’s Exit Through the Gift Shop

03.30.2010 | 4:40 pm | New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles

Deadline.com reports that Banksy’s movie Exit Through the Gift Shop has been slated for an April 16 release in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. The film “focuses on Thierry Guetta, a French aspiring filmmaker who sets out to film street artists-turned art gallery fixtures like Banksy and Shepard Fairey, and then tries his own hand at it, despite questionable talent.”

It opened with big buzz (just like pretty much everything the man does) at Sundance in January, and the artist-now-cum-director didn’t miss the opportunity to add a few stencils to the snow-covered streets of Park City.

Count me in.

And it looks like he took some Give Up stickers with him…

CORRECTION: Turns out Give Up was actually in San Fran as well and Dual happened upon his stuff. My bad.

The Streets Speak: B~Kay

Watchful eyes have been popping up in the Montrose over the last couple of months. They come courtesy of B~Kay, a Houston-based artist who’s also pasted in Austin and San Francisco.

Here, B~Kay shares some of her flicks and offers up a few words:

I love to see people’s reaction to things and I am a big people-watcher. My favorite part of the human body is the eyes. I think you can tell a lot about a person through their eyes.

When I am painting my third eye opens and I get lost in it. Painting is like a drug to me; I am always craving it. Art is a magical thing; it brings the best out of everyone. Street art is the most positive thing coming out of the world today.
