It's mostly stencil art in London and Bristol, it's supposed to be thought provoking and he's been in the news a few times for hanging his stuff in galleries/museums without anyone knowing

They're called 'Banging your head against a brick wall' and 'Existencilism' if that helps

There is only one Banksy, lot's of copycats I expect though.
In fact someone daubed Banksy across a bridge on the way into Bristol on the M32.
He ended up on the front page of the local Evening Post denying that one was him.
There was no style or point to it at all

but he mentioned about the fact no-one actually knows who he is, whether it's one person or ten??

My boss is into Banksys work and has a couple of items, he uses a rat as his sign in most of his pics,
No one knows the true identity of him either

seen quite alot of his work over london whilst walking to various sites. Some of his paintings have fetched SERIOUS money..!!
walked passed one of his works today... said something like "turn around go back to bed" with a rat holding a sign.. I think.
Wouldnt mind a canvass print with one of his works on..

There was a mural on a wall in St. Werburghs, Bristol designed by Banksy and painted by friends in memory of another friend who sadly passed away.
It was called "The new pollution" but the wall was pulled down to make way for a block of flats. Specialist art dealers estimated the wall would of been worth well into five figures!

I bought a Nick Walker signed print a while back and it has pride of place on the bedroom wall-might be a bit more careful with it now looking at the prices they are now going for
