Banksy is undoubtedly the most famous British street artist of his generation, and yet, to this day, his identity remains a mystery. Brilliant and illusory, he worked on a scale not many even thought possible. His canvas is the street; He has galleries in cities all over the world. His art is meaningful, intelligent, humorous - though often dark - and full of profound social critique. His work has a unique style of satire and at the same time he often uses social phenomena as the center of his work. The world's largest Banksy collector recently opened an exhibition in Toronto and is now open until September.
Over the course of his nearly 30-year career, Banksy has managed to change the perception of modern art itself, turning buildings, Bridges, road signs and train cars into masterpieces. To this day, he has created hundreds of unique works of art, including graffiti, paintings, extraordinary documentaries and a very unusual theme park.
The world's largest private collection of Banksy works, this globally renowned exhibition showcases original and certified works related to some of the most interesting and talked about artists in modern history. The prints, paintings, silkscreens, sculptures, unique works and limited edition works on display were created mainly between 1997 and 2008, the period when Banksy is best known and best known for his work.
Friends can enjoy the Mona Lisa created by Banksy in 2002. The work had been shrouded in dust for more than two decades before it was unveiled at The Art Of Banksy in London in 2023. Babies should not miss the work in this limited exhibition, after which the Mona Lisa will be auctioned this year and will no longer be on display in a private collection.
One of my personal favorites that was hard controlled for 30 seconds was the Wrong War series. In my mind, I think of the desperate eyes that linger in the Russian-Ukrainian and Palestinian-Israeli wars. War and equality have always been a topic of constant concern in the art world, as well as a hot topic frequently selected by many art students in their personal portfolios. Artists and designers around the world express the harm of war and call for peace through different forms of artistic expression and artistic media.
