Puzzling over meaning
New artwork by Banksy appears in London
Street artist Banksy has left a new work of art in south-west London. The image of an ibex near Kew Bridge in the Richmond district was confirmed as authentic by him on Instagram on Monday.
The latest work shows an ibex in front of a precipice with falling boulders in front of a surveillance camera. As usual, Banksy confirmed the authenticity of his work on Instagram on Monday (see post below).
However, the anonymous street artist did not provide an explanation for the mural. Viewers can speculate about the meaning for themselves ...
Banksy's exact identity is unknown
Banksy is believed to be from the western English city of Bristol, but his exact identity is unknown. In his works, he repeatedly addresses social grievances. In November 2022, for example, he caused a stir with a whole series of pictures of war-damaged houses in Ukraine.
His works, which repeatedly cause uproar, now fetch millions at auction. Banksy himself repeatedly criticizes the traditional art world of museums and galleries.
