The largest presentation of works by Banksy, the world’s most enigmatic yet highly sought-after artist, including iconic works, installation objects, ephemera, and memorabilia all in one volume.

Banksy is the world’s most discussed artist of recent decades, and this seminal collection features hundreds of works including Girl with Balloon, Pulp Fiction, Love Is in the Air, Barcode, and Monkey Queen. It also includes scores of paintings, serigraphs, stencils, and installation objects as well as a selection of memorabilia – many of which have never been published previously. Created with the cooperation of Pest Control, the group that manages all things Banksy, this is as official and authorised as any Banksy publication could be.

Banksy is the world’s greatest practitioner of street art. His work has always been political, involving pointed critiques of inequality, injustice, consumerism, and the establishment, yet no one knows his identity. He is an exemplary case of fame and notoriety built upon absence and anonymity. His relationship with the art market is also complex: marked by mocking hostility while being one of the most marketable and most collected contemporary artists.

Reviews for Banksy

...an important analysis and catalogue of a genius at work with a smirk on his never-seen face. The aggregate of his art is Banksy's validation and legacy. Banksy is a worthy testimonial to him and a beautiful bouquet for a legend in the making. -NEW YORK JOURNAL OF BOOKS
