# Primate Cover Art Banksy Graces the Cover of Time Out London Magazine By Brian G Randles | Published 2010-03-03 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/time-out-london References: [hypebeast](http://hypebeast.com/2010/03/banksy-time-london-magazine-cover-art/) & [shop.timeout](http://shop.timeout.com/time-out-london-magazine-issue-2063-1.html?DCMP=OTC-banksy) Banksy is the most popular [graffiti artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stash-1) in history. Now, he is on the cover of Time Out [London Magazine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piranha-tank) although his identity remains unknown. Offering a revealing (and rare) interview in the mag, Banksy proudly proclaims 'I plead not guilty to selling out. But I plead it from a bigger house.' Great line. We have featured Banksy on Trend Hunter many times before, and I am sure this won't be the last time.
