Banksy Murals per Year
“Graffiti is one of the few tools you have if you have almost nothing.
And even if you don’t come up with a picture to cure world poverty,
you can make someone smile while they’re having a piss”
Banksy is a muralist above and beyond any other art forms. He started to paint murals since his very early years as an artist, and never stopped… Banksy’s first and most important canvas is the street and it is with no doubt the most powerful one.
It is hard to know how many murals Banksy has created so far, as most of them disappear within 24 hours… However, the artist has been documenting most of them since the very early years. For example, his self-published books and thereafter Wall and Piece contain hundreds of pictures of Banksy‘s stencils. This question almost becomes irrelevant once one realizes the message stays and impacts the world in so many ways…
“Imagine a city where graffiti wasn’t illegal, a city where everybody could draw wherever they liked. Where every street was awash with a million colors and little phrases. Where standing at a bus stop was never boring. A city that felt like a party where everyone was invited, not just the estate agents and barons of big business. Imagine a city like that and stop leaning against the wall – it’s wet.”
