55DSL Recommends: Street Art Tug o’ War

The street art scene is full of awesome people who all have the utmost respect for each other, but don’t worry about that! We’re here to fabricate some hip-hop style beef between two of them. We’ve created the ultimate street art showdown between two of the most respected street artists out there.

Our two legendary artists are the infamous Banksy, the street art phenomenon known for his satirical style, and the lesser known, but just as talented, Blu. The thing that really sets them apart (aside from nationality - let’s not turn this into an England vs Italy thing), is the consumption of their work. While people will hunt around London, New York or Milan in search of a Banksy wall; Blu’s art really moves. Well not really, he animates stop motion videos using walls as his canvas.

They’re both kings of anonymity, but who is the king of street art? Go over to our Facebook page and vote in our virtual tug o’ war! Banksy’s currently ahead, but there’s only millimeters in it.
