Time Out Banksy

Friday, March 12th, 2010

A copy of Time Out London’s Banksy Edition publication landed on the doorstep of Kulture Online HQ earlier this week. The magazine was approached allegedly by Banksy himself to produce the cover of the magazine – no doubt to promote his new film (*cough*sellout*cough*).

Inside the pages is an interview with Banksy which is a great read, however it is fairly unrevealing, as you’d expect from the man of mystery.  The interviewer questions Banksy on a range of topics from his newly released film to his recent clashes with Robbo.

The article is certainly a good read so if you are able to get your hands on it, read it in the shop, as the rest of the magazine is just standard Time Out London.

See the intro below:
