Shepard Fairey interviews Bansky

Shepard Fairey: How long are you going to remain anonymous, working through the medium itself and through your agent as a voice for you?

Bansky: I have no interest in ever coming out. I figure there are enough self-opinionated assholes trying to get their ugly little faces in front of you as it is. You ask a lot of kids today what they want to be when they grow up, and they say, “I want to be famous.” You ask them for what reason and they don’t know or care.
