Banksy’s graffiti lets us think about the system where we live. He has the bravery to denounce the thinks wich are not working in the world.
It is a political message, a peaceful way to change the world and to rebel against the system.
There is a hidden reference of the American Pledge of Allegiance which is very impressive.
But, some people can say that it is not art. If we compare to real pièces of great artists like Monet or another, graffitis can be ugly and rude. Moreover, it damages our wonderful city.
