Banksy Artwork

From my understanding, the British street artist Banksy was approached by Rockstar to do some artwork for the game. Apparently, he declined.

Anyway, Rockstar decided to do some of their own apparently, and it can be seen throughout Liberty City.

Does anyone know where?

re: Banksy Artwork

Rockstar can't do Banksy artwork. Only Banksy can make "Banksy" artwork.

Banksy Artwork

Banksy is by far one of the most talented artists in the world, he is far too superb for Rockstar to even be ABLE to copy him. Though I'd have loved for him to have said yes.

If you drive off the cliff into the sea at Faustins, get out then swim to the little sand area where the stairs are to get back up. By these stairs is the Banksy lookalike art.

He was talking about Rockstar hiring artists to do artwork in a similar style not to plagiarize this Banksy's work.

re: Banksy Artwork

I was wondering the same thing. Sure he's really cool and has done some very interesting and politically risky/dangerous pieces and I can see that HE might think he's above doing some art for a video game, but I don't think that's the case.

re: Banksy Artwork

There are graffiti grenades here and there that look stencilled and so I guess that counts as Banksy-esque.

Oh, and to weigh into the sub-debate about the man himself. Massively over-rated.

re: Banksy Artwork

Does anyone have a link to images of Banksy artwork? I'd love to see the real McCoy. Perhaps a comparison of his real work and art in GTA4.
I've never heard of him but I'm intrigued.
