New chapter in debate over Banksy film

Banksy, Truth and the Third ManBy MELENA RYZIKParanoid PicturesThierry Guetta as Mr. Brainwash in “Exit Through the Gift Shop.”It’s easy to get lost in a hall of art-house mirrors when thinking or writing about “Exit Through the Gift Shop,” better known as the Banksy documentary. The pseudonymous British street artist has emerged from the shadows a bit to promote the film – but he’s expressed surprise that people might think his work is a prank, even though, you know, that sort of comes with the territory of being an internationally known prankster.
Wheat paste
Paste Recipes
Wheat paste
Prepare 1 cup (2.4 dl) of very hot water. Make a thin mixture of 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of white flour and cold water (just enough to wet all the flour and make it liquid enough to pour). Pour the cold mixture slowly into the hot water while stirring constantly. Bring to a boil. When it thickens, allow to cool. Smear on like any other glue. For slightly better strength, add 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of sugar after the glue is thickened. After using a portion, reheat the remaining in a covered jar or container to sterilize it for storage or keep refrigerated. If wheat flour is not available, other flours will work.
Rice Paste
Mix one part rice flour and six parts water. Heat while mixing to a smooth consistency.
