Banksy - My Hero


Metro gallery on High Street Armadale has their hot little hands on two limited-edition Banksy prints and is excepting to build on this with a costly Banksy original from London.

Lucky if youŕe in Melbourne during 27 September - 17 October. Never has there been a show in Australia that has brought together the great street artists from around the world, with the likes of Blek Le Rat, Nick Walker, Swoon, Shepard Fairey and Dface as well as locals such as Ha-Ha.

Banksy -
[synonymous to notority and anonymity]
With a penchant for the absurd, satirical, and bizarre Banksy’s works challenge the viewer to re-evaluate the world around them. Using humour to underpin serious social concerns Banksy critiques the lifestyle of consumerism and gluttony that is symptomatic of the society in which we live.
