Iconic, irreverent, reflective, enigmatic, hooligan, genius... All these adjectives (and many more) are valid to define
Banksy
.
An artist whose works have gone down in History and
about whom we know very little
.
Practically nothing.
Now, Banksy's cool graffiti creations can be in your home.
In a simple and comfortable way, as we have found on Amazon.
A magnificent opportunity to
get some of her works
in a simple way and at the click of a button.
Bristol, London, Melbourne, Bethlehem and even Borodyanka, in Ukraine
, are some of the cities where Banksy murals have appeared.
We say 'appeared' because if something characterizes this artist it is that, in addition to hiding his identity,
no one knows when he is going to create one of his works.
Creations that, in almost all cases, talk about current issues, attacking
the police authorities, the government, the monarchy and, in general, against intolerance and discrimination.
His are such well-known works as
Girl with a Balloon
,
Parachuting Rat
,
Stop Wars
,
Policemen Kissing
,
Umbrella Girl
or
Follow your Dreams
, among many others.
Many of them can be found on Amazon in the form of high-quality reproductions that
are perfect for decorating rooms in our home
such as the living room, hallway or bedrooms.
But
who is Banksy?
In reality, no one is able to give a clear answer on this.
It is only known that she was born in Bristol.
Furthermore, he has never shown his face and his works appear suddenly, without warning.
An irreverent way of creating art that has always generated a lot of expectation.
To find out whether or not he was the creator of graffiti,
Banksy publishes his work on his Instagram and on his website
, which guarantees that it was done by him and not by an imitator.
GIRL WITH BALLOON
The Girl with a Balloon
is one of Banksy's most recognized works.
In this case, Amazon offers

this mural that appeared in 2002 on a wall in South Park (London) and which has become one of the most famous modern icons.
