At last years Oscars, a street artist named <a href=\"http:\/\/unurth.com\/2445637\/More-New-Banksy-Work-in-London\" target=\"_blank\">Banksy<\/a> was receiving a lot of attention because of his role in the nominated film <a href=\"http:\/\/www.banksyfilm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Exit Through the Gift Shop<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 The film took you on secretive missions to create works on nontraditional canvases around the world.[1.
