A world-famous Banksy exhibition

The Art of Banksy is already a worldwide spectacle, having dazzled “over 1.5 million visitors in 15 cities across the globe”. As well as works displayed on canvases and in print, pieces will also include the intriguingly described “fascinating ephemera”. I’m not sure what it means – but it’s sure piqued my curiosity. The Banksy exhibition will be the first time that many of the pieces are being displayed.

Banksy’s other artistic statements will also make an appearance, such as Dismaland and The Walled Off Hotel in Bethlehem. Recent artworks will also make an appearance, many of which have touched on the ongoing war in Ukraine.

New for the London edition of the Banksy exhibition is a peek behind the curtain at some of the works. Friends and associates of the artist have shared insights into Banksy’s most famous, impactful images. They’ll be shining some light onto how some of their most “headline-grabbing street art stunts were devised”. Visitors are sure to walk away having learned much more about the enigmatic figure who has been using art and culture in hopes of enacting change around the world.

The Art of Banksy exhibition will take place at 84-86 Regent St., London W1B 5HB.

Tickets can be purchased from the website.
