da-eYe: looking for Banksy at the 2011 Oscars

No one showed in a monkey mask at the Oscars. Many people were hoping ‘anonymous’ British street artist Banksy would show last night (his film ‘Exit Through The Gift Shop‘ was nominated for Best Documentary Feature) but he didn’t. Or maybe he was there and we didn’t recognize him.

As you may already know, da-eYe was born in the mid-Eighties and his roots come from Graffiti. He loves Hollywood stars (with a preference for Brunette actresses…) and he is a fan of Banksy; no wonder why he came all the way to Los Angeles to meet with the street artist. With no positive results, I’m afraid…

But apparently, someone bombed the wall behind da-eYe to avoid any ambiguity, telling us ‘He’s not Banksy’, the arrow pointing at da-eYe’s head. No Banksy then but our one-eyed guy enjoyed the after parties. A lot. No pictures available, sorry! (In fact, we are not ‘sorry’. It’s all about decency here).

I am not into graffiti but I’ve heard of Banksy of course. Nice to read da-eye’s adventures as always but I didn’t know about the brunette actresses ;)

Banksy is my master!!! No kidding, his documentary (Guetta’s) should have won the Oscar.

That’s sad da-eYe couldn’t meet with Banksy but the guy is hard to find :P

I like this clin d’oeil to Banksy by Max Dana with da-eYe :)

Nice illustration Max!

But the Oscars night was so boring :roll:

Yeah Banksy should accept to meet da eye. He traveled to LA without success. Banksy, be nice with da eye :P

That’s right, I spent the night watching the ceremony on Canal+ and I fall asleep…….. J. Franco was like a statue, poor Anne Hathaway :oops:

I love da-eYe, he’s so funny! Max Dana knows how to make him live, he’s a living character and I’m eager to know what will happen to him next! :)

Banksy is the best artist of our time. He knows exactly what he does and he’s different from many other artists looking for fame. Banksy works and creates and he enjoys what he does. I think Max Dana and Banksy have a lot in common.

da-eYe has a great sense of humor I love that!!



Avi Feb 28, 2011 - 8:14 pm 9

LOL Very funny, congrats Max Dana :P

I will tell you what I think of Banksy once I’ve seen his face :roll:




Ghosty Mar 1, 2011 - 4:23 am 11

Agreed Karmitto!



Yull Mar 1, 2011 - 6:47 am 12
