BANSKY
by FAUSTO GILBERTI
Description
Spray paint cans to coat walls, works that self-destruct and others that don't cost much money, unusual theme parks: that is all it takes to recognise Banksy, but no one really knows who he is. Fausto Gilberti’s new book, dedicated to the street artist with a hidden identity, is full of question marks: Banksy is hiding somewhere, and we have a lot of fun chasing his grafti all over the world. And we can't forget the day he put sharks in a lake in a London park, or when there were no walls around and he painted on the cows in a field. And what about the time he walked into the Louvre and hung a painting without asking permission

Our work is made out of curiosity and discovery, used to levity and fun. An unpredictable and uninterrupted process that, in our case, has lasted for over 40 years. 40 years of encounters, bandying between art and books, in search of new languages, contaminations, free experimentation.
