Wall and Piece
The work of Banksy is unmistakable, except maybe when it’s squatting in the Tate or New York’s Metropolitan Museum. Banksy is responsible for decorating the streets, walls, bridges and zoos of towns and cites throughout the world. Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills and umbrellas.
Banksy: Completed
With this generously illustrated book, artist and critic Carol Diehl is the first author to probe the depths of the Banksy mystery. Through her exploration of his paintings, installations, writings, and Academy Award-nominated film, Exit through the Gift Shop, Diehl proves unequivocally that there’s more to Banksy than the painting on the wall.
Banksy exemplifies the power of voice. It doesn’t need to be sounded, it doesn’t need a face. It comes in all shapes and all forms. If it lives to inspire, to call for introspection on the world we live in– then, the it’s wings will keep it soaring, no matter how the winds change.
