View on a Wall
Originally released in 2019 as part of the GDP pop-up in Croydon, the black version of "Banksquiat" is a signed edition of 300, with a grey version also available. This piece offers a profound commentary on the relentless wheels of capitalism. Banksy pays tribute to the legendary Jean-Michel Basquiat by incorporating the famous crown that Basquiat used in his visual language. Basquiat’s crown symbol is a homage to his friend and mentor Andy Warhol, reflecting Basquiat's self-perception as a king with ambition and brilliance, and serving as a symbol of black empowerment. In "Banksquiat," a ferris wheel is depicted with carriages replaced by Basquiat’s iconic crown. This not only positions Banksy among the greats of street art (the black background and chalk lines possibly referencing Haring and his subway drawings) but also breathes new life into the crowns. "Banksquiat" seamlessly blends the influences of Bristol and the underground art scene of NYC to create a stunning effect.
