'People look at an oil painting and admire the use of brushstrokes to convey meaning. People look at a graffiti painting and admire the use of a drainpipe to gain access' - Bansky The collected works of Britain's most famous graffiti artist and the perfect coffee table book for anyone interested in art and modern culture. _______________ Banksy. His work. Photographed. With comments by Banksy. In a book. This is that book. _______________
Since spotting my first few Banksies I have been desperately seeking out more. When I do come across them, surreptitiously peeping out of an alley or boldly emblazoned on a wall, I find it hard to contain myself... they make me smile and feel optimistic about the possibilities of shared dreams and common ownership. * Simon Hattenstone, Guardian *
Banksy, real name unknown, was born in Bristol. He is a world-famous street artist and his trademark graffiti images are instantly recognisable as original Banksy artwork.
