I think every theory about banksy's identity is just a theory, no ?

It's really impressive he has managed to remain anonymous for so long, really.

Banksy's identity is kind of an open secret, it's Robin Gunningham, people in the 'know' have known this for a long time. But we all every now and then partake in the effort of keeping it an (open) secret, for respect of the art and the mystique, and for the respect of the artist's very own desire.

As far as I can tell, this is just another rumour :)
