Banksy is one of the most iconic living artists of our generation. He presents witty, satirical political commentary through his art. The first major exhibition of his iconoclastic work will be coming to Hong Kong. Although Banksy’s true identity remains unknown, this exhibition will give you and the family a unique opportunity to spend time with his work and perhaps gain new insights.
There will be over 70 works of sculptures, installations, videos and photographs compiled into various thematic sections. Through audio-visual installation, you’ll truly be challenged to ask yourselves if Banksy is a genius or vandal.
