Banksy Book Launch

Someone wrote a book on Banksy. And, as everyone knows, when a book is written, it must be launched. Home Sweet Home, a biography of the artist, was welcomed into the world with a party at Cargo on Rivington Street in east London last night. I got high on the sweet-smelling fumes of all the spray paint as real-life graffiti artists shook those cans and did us some art right before our very eyes. Also, there was some singing. Here’s what I witnessed:
