Who is Banksy?
When it comes to street art, Banksy is probably the world's most famous and mysterious graffiti artist. Estimates suggest that this British artist, aged between 45 and 50, has managed to keep his identity a secret. His works, however, not only invade international streets, but also auction houses, where they are highly successful: he is currently considered one of the most expensive artists of our time!
Banksy is undoubtedly the undisputed king of street art, a brilliant mind and a star artist who touches people with works that are sometimes ironic, sometimes political, but always poetic, and that speak to them in the depths of their souls. Banksy is a star far beyond the boundaries of the art market. Back in 2010, Time magazine included him for the first time in its list of the 100 most influential people in the world, alongside the likes of Barack Obama, Steve Jobs and Lady Gaga.
