THIS JUST IN!
For years the unsolved mystery behind his identity has brought fire to this underground graffiti artist. However, Banksy's days of lurking in the night only to reveal a stenciled masterpiece by dawn might be less of a public uncertainty as of today. British newspaper Mail On Sunday claims that Banksy is in fact Robin Gunningham, age 34. The newspaper has spent over a year gathering evidence and tracing the artist. Below is a photo taken of "Banksy" (I'm really not liking those quotations) at work in Jamaica in 2004. Valuable sources confirm that the man in the photo is indeed Robin Gunningham, the former Bristol schoolboy.
Could it really be? One who has kept dignified in the shadow of his talent, after being praised by heiresses of hollywood, alas unmasked?
If so, I must say I am rather shocked. I really did not expect such a weathered guy. Who would have thought? Banksy: Patrick Dempsey meets Robert DiNero in rehab. I guess art really has no face.
