Simply Outstanding! - By: GS Minhas, 11 Aug 2008 
Banksy's Wall & Piece is simply an amazing collection of his graffiti art all across the UK & the world. His unique style has won him international acclaim to fame. His artwork is not just vandalism but sends out a political statement which is bold & isn't afraid to mention things we would otherwise keep quiet. I first heard Banksy on a news website when he created another piece of work & then visited his website banksy.com, & since then fallenin love with his work. The other day I came across the bookin a store & really enjoyed his collection of work. This is a must have book for any of those interested not justin art, but also those who have been shaped by the newsin recent years.
To be honest, I am not a massive fan of art, or graffiti either but this is totally different! 5 STARS well deserved!
Colourful, vibrant, real, hopeful! - By: Dr. A. Lappas, 24 May 2008 Persecutedin our fast & modern ways we thought the happiness will emerge eventually out of the individualistic work & the enhanced personal security. But instead of happiness we became fearful of the person next to usin such a way we caused depression.
We thought of a million ways to overcome the walls of our communication. Then Banksy, simply & quietly, used the language the humans always knew: "art". Using the freedom we always envy: "our walls". Exposing the obvious where political correctness or personal gain make us go silent: "graffiti".
Enjoy the book.
Banksy - a great summary of his work - By: Phil, 12 May 2008 The book summarizes his work pretty good. The new book (Banksy's Bristol - Home sweet home) does contain a lot of background stories - but this book just contains much more images & niece pieces of art.
Definitely a must-have, if you are interestedin (stencil) graffiti.
There's Another Banksy - By: Ms. C. Bibby, 25 Apr 2008 
I have this book & absoluetly love it, it exaplains why he did it, how he did it & some of his experieces & anecdotes. The book is excellent to be able to see decent street art, but then I came across the person Bansky is inspired by. He is fairly unknown herein the UK but HE is BANKSY'S idol, he is called Blek Le Rat & he too has a book out, he is a 56 year old frenchman who has been doing the things Banksy has been doing for years longer, you can buy his book off amazon. I would say buy Banksy's book to see the British side of street art, but buy Blek Le Rat if you want to see the true inspiration behind Banksy's work.
brilliantly cool!!!! - By: Nikki Marie Owen, 25 Mar 2008 I bought this book because im into graffiti, hip hop culture & art. Im doing a degree at the moment & thought it would be helpful, & im glad i did because not only is it funny & unique there is also a really clever message behind it all. If your considering buying it for influence with uni work or anthing like that then i seriously recommend it, if your just curious then its a really cool book to have.
