About
Why this artist matters now
Banksy creates irreverent public interventions using spray paint and stencils that target consumerism, political authority, and the art world itself. Working anonymously from Bristol, he has modified street signs, infiltrated major museums, and produced installations across Los Angeles, New York, London, and Bethlehem, combining street art with conceptual provocation.
