Peter Saville on Banksy, Damian Hurst & the contemporary art world

Saville is asked what he thinks of Banksy and shares some strong opinions about the contemporary art world. He compares Damian Hurst's show to Selfridges, highlighting the commercial nature of it all and talks about how people really just have too much money to burn. And it's interesting how he refers to him as "Damian" – cult like status, only a name; like Kylie or Madonna!

  1. Very interesting Becky, I enjoyed this one. Refreshing to see this argument from Savilles candid point of view.
