‘People say graffiti is ugly, irresponsible and childish…but that’s only
if it’s done properly.’ Banksy
Banksy's subversive genius
and astute political commentary are on full display in Desperately Seeking B**ksy, from The Flower Thrower (2003) and Kissing Coppers (2004) to ‘Bemusement
Park’ Dismaland (2015)
and ‘The hotel with the worst view in the world’, his brilliant Bethlehem installation The
Walled Off Hotel (2017). With illuminating commentary from street art
expert Xavier Tapies, and detailed maps to track down Banksy’s works, this is
the definitive guide to the work of the world’s most famous — and elusive — graffiti artist.
