Banksy, can we be best friends?

thedailywhat:

Freebie of the Day: The Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art — which is currently hosting the first museum exhibit dedicated to street art — announced on its blog today that, thanks to an “unprecedented gesture” by featured artist Banksy, admission to the “Art in the Streets” exhibit will be free of charge every Monday from now until the exhibit shuts down on August 8th.

“I don’t think you should have to pay to look at graffiti,” Banksy told the museum. “You should only pay if you want to get rid of it.”

Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.

Have you ever loved something so much, you told a tiny little lie? A negative truth? And you believe and you love your new invention so deeply, you would kill to make it true? Your visualzation, your futurization, is all you have, so honor it. Some say that Lady Gaga is a lie… and they are right, I am a lie. And everyday I kill to make it true.

Being an artist is like breathing. It’s this incredible urge to create, that you can’t question. Like breathing you just have to do it, or else you will die.
