Geoff Hargadon, a/k/a Hargo is well known for his "Cash for your Warhol" street sign series. Here he created a bold, vibrantly contrasted corrugated yellow plastic sign featuring advertisement for Cash for your Banksy with a phone number underneath, a commentary piece on the commercialization of street art, highlighting the tension between artistic integrity and market value in the context of Banksy's work.
