 +===== Who is Banksy? =====
 +
 +Banksy is a pseudonymous England-based street artist, political activist, and film director known for his subversive and satirical graffiti and murals. His identity remains unknown, and he operates under a veil of secrecy to avoid legal repercussions for his often controversial work.
 +
 +Banksy first gained international recognition in the late 1990s for his stenciled graffiti art, which challenged social and political norms and often featured poignant and humorous messages. He has since created numerous politically charged and thought-provoking pieces in cities all over the world, including London, New York City, post-Katrina New Orleans, and the Middle East.
 +
 +As a rule breaker and challenger of norms, Banksy's art is often critical of authority and consumerism. He has been known to use his work to draw attention to issues such as police brutality, homelessness, and the refugee crisis. His work is also known for its clever use of irony and humor to make powerful statements.
 +
 +Despite his illicit and often subversive tactics, Banksy's work has gained a significant following and is highly sought after by collectors and art enthusiasts. His influence on the contemporary art world is undeniable, and his legacy as a provocateur continues to inspire new generations of artists.
