BANKSY'S BRISTOL

This book is a celebration of Banksy’s Bristol street art that puts him in the context of 3D, John Nation from the Barton Hill Settlement, Inkie, Nick Walker and the other artists and musicians who were instrumental in linking Bristol to the original New York hip hop scene.

It is the most revealing account written so far of Banksy’s formative years and contains more than 100 images of his Bristol art and pictures of Banksy at work which have never been published before.

Steve Wright traces Banksy’s roots back to the rave culture of the Nineties and draws a rounded picture of an artist who is most famous for being anonymous.
