The first ever comprehensive catalogue of Banksy's print editions, from 2002 to 2022. Known as Banksy, the British street artist, political activist and film director has been making art for over three decades. However, while Banksy's street art is designed to stay in the public domain, he has also been creating and selling commercial artworks since 2002. As well as making his art accessible to a wider audience, the prints often expand on themes explored in Banksy's other pieces, such as war, consumerism and the abuse of authority. At intentionally affordable prices accessible to people of all backgrounds, he initially offered both signed and unsigned versions of his print editions for just a couple of hundred pounds. It is essential to appreciate these prints in order to fully understand Banksy's artistic expression and evolution over the past two decades. Organized by release year, with insightful commentary, essential details about each edition and faithful reproductions, Banksy: The Prints will become the ultimate resource for exploring Banksy's printed works. It will allow a more complete and well-rounded understanding of Banksy's visual language, his motivations and his politics.
