This is such a gimmick, and Bansky should stick to what he does, stencil "graffiti and "tags" on the street.

Not only is it derivative of Paul McCarthy and his "white Snow" shown at the Park Ave Armory earlier this year, it is also derivative of what Jake and Dinos Chapman were doing over a decade ago.

Please! The added gimmick of the mobility of a truck, to bring it to a "street" level, is not enough...

Funny, 'this is a gimmick'. Like the whole shtick is not a gimmick. And always was. It is about the gimmick. Some of the gimmicks are more clever than others. This girl Ciley Mirus is making a good dollar on that tongue business too.
