Some of Banksey's work genuinely impressed me. It was appealing to the eye, and the political commentary was crystal clear and highly appropriate. His pieces on the West Bank Barrier were amazing, if you know anything about the conflict which built it.

MBW's pieces, on the other hand, had no meaning at all. He spent so much time watching and helping people who created other pieces, he figured out that he could use his already-developed business acumen to emulate their styles; among others. He unwittingly became a satirist of pop art culture, because people bought his assembly line crap at top dollar and placed his work in art museums.
