It Hirsts Mummy! How to get noticed in a big city...

Have you seen this piece of urban art in Marylebone High Street central London, on Damien Hirst's shop wall? Never mind the spelling - as every Copywriter worth their salt knows, if it comes to a showdown between messaging impact and grammatical correctness, impact wins every time. So what are we to make of this Banksy-esque creative outburst? Personally, I reckon David Hockney's been out on the town with his paint set, clandestinely underscoring his now well-publicised views about the dubious talents of the YBAs. No matter who the artist/author, they have made their point and made it well. Whether you agree with it is another matter.
