In the world of street art there is nobody more well known than 'Banksy'. The British artist whose graffiti has made him a household name around much of the world.Though he began his career as an artist painting on blank walls around London he has now moved on to sold out art shows and more recently, film making (Exit through the gift shop).His most recent piece of satire on the world he sees around him is a re-working of 'The Simpsons' cartoon opening credits into a scathing attack on Western exploitation of third world countries and their people for profit. You can see it here.However this post is a tribute to his beginnings as a graffiti or street artist with a collection of his work found in cities around the world.
