Banksy

Banksy Captured by Steve Lazarides retraces the birth of the British artist whose identity is still unknown. A true legend of art, he would have made his debut in 1990 and seeks to convey messages about the excesses of society through his work.

From the introduction, we discover the author's meeting with Banksy around 1997. At the time, he was the in-house photographer and editor-in-chief of the magazine Sleaze Nation, created and edited by Steve Beale. After hearing positive feedback about an innovative young graffiti artist known as Banksy, he was contacted to find out more about his journey.

In this 256-page book, you will find snapshots of the master's works in their contexts, all complemented by texts by Steve Lazarides.
