“I want to live in a world created by art,
not just decorated with it”
― Banksy
WHO IS BANKSY?
THE MYSTERIOUS, ARTISTIC GENIUS...
Almost everybody has heard of Banksy, yet no one knows the real identity of the most famous graffiti artist this world has ever seen. Some consider him a mere prankster, while others hail him as an artistic genius; however, no one can deny his popularity. In 2010, Time magazine selected the British artist for its list of The 100 Most Influential People in the World, joining the ranks of Barack Obama, Steve Jobs and Lady Gaga. His work has sold for millions.
As the enigmatic and elusive king of street art, Banksy has a unique power. He is able to express strong political statements with poetry, energy and humor with an unnerving ability to get to the heart of the subject matter. Any location that features his work becomes the place to see.
Banksy is an exciting artist and we are delighted to bring “The Art of Banksy” to art lovers everywhere.
