Banksy

=Banksy=

Banksy, a british artist well known around the world for his environmental and political statements, is probably the best known contemporary street artist. Although so famous, he has worked hard to conceile his identity, as many of his activities are illegal. This shroud of mystery has added to the legend of Banksy who has spray painted around the world with his iconic images. In the few works here, he is seen creating art commenting on the difficultly of making it out of poverty for a small child, environmental destruction with gasoline, the unfair way which Indians have been treated, and the destruction of a forest for the brief enjoyment of man.
