For the namesake of the class, i'm showing graffiti art by Banksy, an anonymous figure that goes around and does political art on streets, walls and bridges around the world. The art depends on the current events going on, and they are usually very creative and symbolic. I really think it's more of a group than an individual since I see a lot of different styles and signatures on the work. The legality of it is controversial in itself because some of the work could be called priceless, but they have to cover it up sometimes. it's still up for discussion, but Banksy will still be an enigma regardless.
