Neck Face - Voice of the American Populace

Open Letter to Obama

It may not be intentional, then again it may, but these words pack a whole lot of punch.

The word change and dollars here just pack a whollop. Barack Obama - "Change" we can believe in; the platform the the election was won with. But here there is a double entendre, change could be interpreted as nickles and dimes. According to Neck Face, change (nickles and dimes) aren't needed just the benjamins.

Banksy Strikes!

Well, as some of you may know I am a fan of Bansky art work. There's just something about his work that I find so evocative.

Pictured here is his latest piece done in SOHO, a three story masterpiece which you can use your own feelings to interpret it how you wish.

For those who don't know Bansky is a graffiti artist who hails from England where he exhibits his work both in forms of art shows in set venues and just on the streets. He has published books devoted to showcasing his art. He has even done some interviews and has a manifesto available on his website (Oh Ya, he has a website too). To top it all off though the man live in anonimity. No one knows who he is, know one knows how he really sounds. The only one's who do know won't tell. Well I guess when you're art speaks the way his does it's best not to attach a face to the work done. Being anonymous probably also benefits him considering there are multiple warrants out for his arrest.
