Banksy
Banksy is an English graffiti artist, painter and film director. He is known for
his thought-provoking street art. His real name and the date of his birth are still
unknown. I personally think it's really cool that nobody knows who he is. The message
of his paintings is often anti-war. He never sells his paintings although other people
tried to. He appeared in lots of big cities and painted something special. In my view his
creations are great because they make people think about important things. I'm
convinced that he does this with passion and he does everything for his "hobby". He
even climbed into the penguins' enclosure just to make his idea happen. He also
creates films. His first film was The exit through the giftshop, which shows some of
his paintings. The film was nominated for an Oscar (best documentary). Although the
film didn't win, it became really popular. I am looking forward to watch it!
He made lots of amazing paintings, here are some of my favourites:
