Get the binky mug.Banksy is a pseudonym for a British street artist which uses street art as a form of political and social activism. He has a distinctive style in street art to create satirical art pieces. He is best known for his unique stenciling, however quite often he will make pieces of art which range from sculptures to YouTube videos intended to expose the truth about events and situations occurring in our present society.
Recently, he has become widely known for his art pieces and some of his works have been sold at public auctions for thousands of dollars. However, he demonstrates that his art was not for this intended purpose in his satirical film, "Exit Through The Gift Shop". he demonstrates that anyone can make art. However, it is the visual message which art sends which signifies its importance, a message which many people seem to neglect.
Many people in the underground art scene and elsewhere criticize him for being a 'sellout' where it is believed that his art is purposely brought into mainstream media for his anti-consumerist, anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian and anti-war messages for money. However, this is not true as Banksy still remains true to his style, technique and his political and social themes. The only difference now is that he is a widely successful and acclaimed street artist. Some street artists which criticize Banksy still wish to achieve the same success as his and present him as a sellout out of possible jealousy for his achievements.

If you have the time I would highly recommend watching "Exit Through The Gift Shop". Just google it and watch it. (:
