'''Banksy''' is a famous artist, most well-known for his graffiti. He was born in Bristol, England in the mid 1970s. That's really all we know about him.<ref>Even using male pronouns or singular pronouns to refer to Banksy are assumptions that might not be based in fact.</ref> Any photo we have of him is [[The Faceless|obscured.]] Despite this he has become quite popular, sold paintings, put on gallery shows, and in 2005 released a photo book of his work, ''Wall and Piece'', and in 2010 made an Oscar-nominated documentary film, ''[[Exit Through the Gift Shop]]''.
His work is often politically charged and rather funny. He's been compared to [[Andy Warhol]] for their similar sense of humor. You can see more of his work [http://www.banksy.co.uk/ here.]
