 Banksy created this artwork in New York City in 2013  This work depicts a man, in a tux, holding a bunch of flowers as though he had just been stood up on the shutters of Larry Flynt's strip joint, the Hustler Club in Manhattan.  Reports from America stated the New York Police Department were tracking the artist across the city during his six-month residency there.

 This is Banksy’s most expensive and most famous work.  It was sold at an auction in New York for $1.87 million.  It is an adaptation of an original Damien Hirst painting and first appeared as the 'Sweeping it Under the Carpet' mural in Camden in 2006.

Banksy’s Original Work My Homage to Banksy

Overall, I really enjoyed making the presentation. I was able to research a world renowned artist, Banksy, who has pieces of art displayed publicly all over the world. The extreme use of symbolism in his artworks makes me respect the kind of graffiti he makes. In fact, it’s not really graffiti at all, it’s all really awesome, respectable artwork that’s out in the public, for anyone and everyone to see at all times. Though what Banksy does is considered against the law, I believe that his specific works have enough meaning behind them to justify his actions. I’ve definitely been inspired by his work, and hope I can create some similar artworks in this class before the school year comes to an end.
