Isn't having a PR team exactly how he manages that? He has agents to do it for him instead of doing it himself, preserving his anonymity.
- moralestapia 5y agoYeah, what I don't like is the hypocrisy of that and the authorities who play along. (S)he plays the "oh but you can't find me ;)" card every time it needs to escape prosecution ... yet makes use of the same legal system when it goes on its favor. (i.e. tries to trademark its art, sues others who reproduce it [1]). Good thing the EU doesn't play along. As for me, I just dislike charlatans, disregarding of how famous they may be. 1: https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/sep/17/banksy-trademark-risk-street-artist-loses-legal-battle-flower-thrower-graffiti https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2020/sep/17/banksy-...
