DESCRIPTION:
Good, but "Wall and Piece" is better. SkinnyBoyArt I enjoyed this book but honestly I was a bit dissapointed.I had purchased this and "Wall and Piece" and greatly prefer "Wall and piece" to this book. Its an enjoyable book and the photographs of Banksy's work is clear and amazing. However it seems that not all of the art work is by Banksy. I believe they included other work by street artists that were "inspired" by Banksy. So at times it difficult to tell what is Banksy and whats not.This book also had much more writting in it then I thought which was nice. However it was. Great artist, great social commentary EcoGrrl Bought for my hubby for our anniversary (paper!) and he adores it. Great artist, great social commentary.. "Five Stars" according to one silver hand. Excellent and entertaining. Would you expect less? You MUST read the DISS-CLAIMER, too.
The single best collection of photographs of Banksy s street work. You Are An Acceptable Level of Threat concentrates on this singular artist s iconic imagery, spanning the late 90s up until NOW. As Banksy s cheerfully aggressive political work becomes ever more relevant, this comprehensive tome sets about presenting his art in the context of the era he was responding to.. The locations are from around the world (predominantly the UK, US and Europe), and many images have never been seen before. When Banksy started out painting, the political landscape was bleak.
