No single living artist has created as many myths, rumors and
legends as Banksy. In his home town of Bristol almost everyone
seems to have a Banksy story. Many of the tales in this book are
from Bristol and some are from further afield. What they share is
that they are all told with the wide-eyed wonder which Banksy
inspires. Compiled between 2009 and 2011, some of these stories are
quite old and have been told so many times they have become the
stuff of legend, while others are more questionable and best
described as myths.
Some are laugh out loud bollocks and some are simply gossip.
You be the judge. These stories illustrate the incredible audacity,
originality and sheer bloody mindedness of Banksy, who obviously
will be best remembered for his art and exposing the hypocrisy and
idiocy of our modern lives. The myths will be viewed as a
distraction to some or part of the appeal for others. One thing is
certain, the art and the myths are both larger than life.
