King Robbo and Banksy the two UK street graffiti artists are deep into a feud being played out publically. King Robbo is regarded as the founding father of the London graffiti scene, while Banksy has attained international recognition for his edgy spray stencil pieces. The feud apparently commenced when Banksy painted onto a King Robbo’s 25-year-old mural under a Camden Street bridge with a stencil of a man hanging the wall with wallpaper. King Robbo who is said to be in retirement, or a supporter retaliated by manipulating the image to give the impression the workman was paying tribute to King Robbo. Several other Banksy works including well known pieces have now been manipulated in an escalation of the feud and signed off as ‘Team Robbo’. Insiders are also speculating the feud is publicity stunt.
