Told in classic comic-book form, this graphic biography invites a
new audience to learn about Banksy-and uses a pitch-perfect medium
to convey the artist's message that art is for the people. Banksy
is arguably the most well-known street artist of all time. But we
don't actually know who he is. This is just one of many
contradictions that are addressed in this enormously compelling
graphic biography. When two young Londoners are caught
spray-painting graffiti on a city wall, they get to know each other
while detained by the police. After they are released, they decide
to make a film of Banksy's life, tracing the arc of his career as
they travel through the streets of London. Readers will learn not
only of Banksy's politically charged art and the causes he
championed, but also of its worldwide dissemination, museum
exhibitions, and record-breaking auctions. While readers may not
learn Banksy's true identity, this uniquely graphic form of
storytelling communicates the artist's belief that art is for
everyone, speaks to everyone, and is owned by everyone.
