Banksy on Artists

Mon 08/25/08

The thing I hate most about advertising is that it attracts all the bright, creative, ambitious young people, leaving us mainly with the slow and self-obsessed to become our artists. Modern art is a disaster area. Never in the field of human history has so much been used by so many to say so little.

    Discovered via my dotcomrade Joshua Longbrake, who found it via Mareen Fischinger (who I’m guessing he reads because she’s such a good photographer), who found it via Jacob DeHart (who I’m guessing she reads because they’re both on Tumblr), who hotlinked an image I tracked back to this Room 116 post. How’s that for a link trail?
