Austin Texas
Banksy fakes may be popping up in Paris France. Even a website, http://banksy-paris.com/ with the heading "Back To The Roots" sub heading " Paris was not tagged in one day"
and a youtube channel, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-RpSYfSEys0 has popped up. and even an instagram http://instagram.com/banksyparis#
Many speculations are spraying about. One email claims the images are real another coming from Banksy's agent claims they are fake. On top of that rumors are that Banksy is planning a Paris.
Will we see more of this? The work is very easy to copy if one is so inclined, even the political humor. Has the Banksy wave hit the beach? Now will his work become the joke that Banksy once poked at?

Greetings from Austin Mural New Message
by Owen Bay
Looks like the redone South Austin"Greetings From Austin" mural has a new message. Greetings from Austin Mural now reads more like $. Rumors are South Austin artist P$ allegedly did the timely touch up. See a few years back before East Austin became the secret (not anymore) cheap rent for artists and musicians, South Austin was the place.
Now Austin is one of the most expensive cities in America. Ask Lucy the welfare queen of KLBJ am how she survives here. Some say Austin has lost its cool. Some say Austin sucks. Man y residents are now being priced out of Austin. The artist that made this city special can no longer afford to live in Austin Texas.
Some artist feel lost in a city they loved.

Marfa Playboy Sign Sexy Art
by Owen Bay

Marfa Texas you have been soiled.
Playboy has recently obtained a lease on 6,500 square feet of land west of Marfa
Yes that's right, the magazine that promotes nude women for the sake of sexy nude women.
Corporations are people. Now they are artist. :(
Marfa is over before it began
Green Day See You Tonight from paul beck on Vimeo.
from Hyperallefric "Were it not in the name of “art,” which anything that is erected near Marfa is inevitably compared to and/or assumed to be. In conversation Joe Nick Patoski, writer and frequenter of the area since 1959, told Hyperallergic: “big art is great; big advertising, not so much.” It is hard to disgree with that idea. The beauty of Marfa isn’t necessarily in some untainted authenticity — the landscape is constantly changing — but it is rooted in some degree of isolation from the cacophany of 21st century life. Which is perhaps part of why Anthony DeSimone, a musician, chef, and resident of Marfa for the past six years, declined to saying anything to Hyperallergic except: “Worst thing to ever happen here. End of story.”
Just like SXSW in Austin Texas, Marfa will embrace corporate logos. $
Keep Marfa Logo$
here is what people are saying on Hyperallergic:

Sonya Berg Tiny Park
Sonya Berg mixes
paintings and photos. By examining the ambiguity and origination via
retakes and variations, Berg creates intense personal moments
masterfully created by means of rules and omissions, acceptance and
refusal, luring the viewer round and round in circles. Her
paintings doesn’t reference recognisable form. The results are
deconstructed to the extent that meaning is shifted and possible
interpretation becomes multifaceted. By applying abstraction, she
absorbs the tradition of remembrance art into daily practice. This
personal follow-up and revival of a past tradition is important as an
act of meditation.
Her works never shows the complete structure. This results in the fact that the artist can easily imagine an own interpretation without being hindered by the historical reality. By contesting the division between the realm of memory and the realm of experience, she tries to increase the dynamic between audience and author by objectifying emotions and investigating the duality that develops through different interpretations.
Her collected, altered and own works are being confronted as aesthetically resilient, thematically interrelated material for memory and projection. The possible seems true and the truth exists, but it has many faces, as Hanna Arendt cites from Franz Kafka
