Here is what the publishers have said about this new street art publication;
"Artistic genius, political activist, painter and decorator, mythic legend or notorious graffiti artist? 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 cities throughout the world.

Witty and subversive, his stencils show monkeys with weapons of mass destruction, a policeman with smiley faces, rats with drills, and umbrellas. If you look hard enough you’ll find your own.

His statements, incitements, ironies, and epigrams are by turns intelligent and cheeky comments on everything from the monarchy and capitalism to the war in Iraq and farm animals. His identity remains unknown, but his work is prolific. And now for the first time, he’s putting together the best of his work – old and new in a fully illustrated color volume"

The new book title from Banksy Wall and Piece is available in all good bookshops and online from Amazon.
