Since the launch of the film all has been quite quiet on the Banksy front, there’s been a few unconfirmed images spotted here and there and few rumours flying around the he was going to release ‘exit through the gift shop’ on DVD.

Well, I’m pleased to announce that the rumours were right and the DVD goes on sale Monday 6th September. You can pre-order from all the big online stores, so go get stuck in! I’ve heard it’s pretty damn god.

Also, there’s been quite a lot added to the Banksy site, including 2 video snippets plus a ton of new work.
Take a peek…

So here’s the jist…

Basically, ever since we were nippers we’ve been fan’s of US sports in general, so Basketball, American Football, Ice Hockey etc… being fans of those sports and also being obsessed with design and illustration we couldn’t escape being obsessed with the logo’s and branding of some of those teams.

So here’s where you come in, we’re gonna give two of you lucky pups chance to cook up a illo for a tee. You can use up to 5 colours to create a logo illustration for our very own fictional sports team. That’s a complete illustration with mascot, text, the lot.

There’ll be 7 fictional teams to chose from to create branding for, 2 winning pieces will be printed up as part of a future limited edition run of only 40 Sports Pack tee’s. Complete with name of the team on the back and number 40 all those slick details (don’t worry about those, we’ll sort them nearer the time) that are on US sports jersey’s.

The final piece will need to have illustrated name and type of the team, aswell as a mascot(s).

If you’re one of the two winners you’ll get your illustration printed up on a tee and will have your name in the AnyForty hall of fame alongside all the big dogs as well as a pack of 5 screenprints from our recent Versus Exhibition and a a batch of tee’s to give to friends and fam.

Deadline is September 30th and you need to email your final entries as a illustrator ai file to anyforty@gmail.com

Balls in your court now, load up illustrator, get those sketch books out and wow us all!

Here’s the 7 teams you can choose from to illustrate. The name of the team should be biggest, AnyForty smaller.

* ANYFORTY PIRATES
* ANYFORTY MOBSTERS
* ANYFORTY GRIZZLIES
* ANYFORTY HOODLUMS
* ANYFORTY VIKINGS
* ANYFORTY MONSTERS
* ANYFORTY TERRORS

Closing date for entries will be Thursday 30th September. All entries will be shown on the blog with artists name, and a select panel of AnyForty Versus collaborators will help judge the final piece with comments on the winners. You can enter as many times or do as many different teams as you want. But please remember we’re all about quality and skill over here. Take your time and impress us!
