    Product Details

    Description:

    Banksy, Britain's now-legendary "guerilla" street artist, has painted the walls, streets, and bridges of towns and cities throughout the world. Not only did he smuggle his pieces into four of New York City's major art museums, he's also "hung" his work at London's Tate Gallery and adorned Israel's West Bank barrier with satirical images. Banksy's identity remains unknown, but his work is unmistakable—with prints selling for as much as $45,000.

    5 stars Great Book for any graffiti enthusiast!


    Wall and Piece    . You have to check out this book if you can appreciate the art that is graffiti. Banksy also inspires you with his political satire.


    5 stars finished reading it at the bookstore


    Wall and Piece    . there isn't much to read. the art speaks for itself.
    6 sections to this book:
    monkeys, cops, rats, cows, art, and street furniture.
    there are a few pages that contain several paragraphs of writing. banksy provides captions for maybe.. approximately half or less than half of his art. towards the back there's one page with "advice on painting with stencils". if you were looking for graffiti instruction, look elsewhere... unless you really want to look at that one page haha. some of his famous quotes are in there.
    what a funny guy. funny book. it was worth the money :)


    5 stars Mezmerizing!


    Wall and Piece    . Couldn't put it down. Images are mezmerizing. Everyone I show it to wants to buy it to. No profanity or sexually oriented photos make it a hip gift choice for young people.


    5 stars Great collection of graffiti art.


    Wall and Piece    . Banksy is a great artist. This book is 240 pages of both his graffiti and his "gallery" or more "Piece" art. I think he is an innovator and inspiration to all artists. We could all learn something from Banksy. If you like this book you might also like some Shepard Fairey work. Also check out Banksy's website at http://www.Banksy.co.uk its really great.


    5 stars One of the BEST artists of the new century (IMO)


    Wall and Piece    . If you haven't read or seen much from BANKSY - trust me, just buy the sweet book. Otherwise... make a quick stop at your favorite video search engine, type BANKSY and watch a documentary about the man...

    This is one of my favorite art books. Without a doubt.
