#1 Agree. If something is not puted inside our brains for the media, that´s because is not worth it. In the other hand if the media present us with the bigest crap everybody would just aplaude and say Woow. That`s were we live and it happens with everything since art, to music and cinema, etc, etc...

Well, but... I always thought that his art was about painting a specific image in a specific place, as some sort of, I dunno, manifesto... as some sort of expressing his feelings about the object/area his works referred to. Nowhere in his work he made it look like he's been doing all that just for money. Now, selling just bare images, cut out of any context... I'd say, if somebody bought anything that would mean they missed the point of his art altogether. Collecting "street art" reproductions in your home on your wall seems weird to me.
