Biography
Originally from Bristol, Banksy has taken his provocative and inspiring brand of vandalism to sites worldwide, from the Sydney Opera House to Cuba. A media favourite for stunts like hanging his own work in the Tate gallery, but a popular star long before any of that. Banksy brought UK graphic art to an international audience through his street works, painted animals, screen prints, books, doctored CDs and was finally honoured in 2009 with a show at the Bristol Museum.

With an already reputable relationship with the US, three sell-out exhibitions — Banksy's Barely Legal (2006), Antony Micallef’s Impure Idols (2007) and Outsiders (2008) — Lazarides is returning stateside with an impressive line-up of solo and group exhibitions.
To kick it off, David Choe is returning to his hometown after a six-year absence with Nothing to Declare (23 April-23 May). Then in June, the venue will be taken over by Europe’s finest JR (Paris), Vhils (Lisbon), Conor Harrington (Cork, Ireland) and Antony Micallef (London). Next, will be an installation of Jonathan Yeo’s infamous pornographic portraits (8 July-8 August). Finally, before saying farewell to the City of Angels, Lazarides will be pleased to present their first solo exhibition with British artist Jay Jay Burridge.
Open till October 31st this show is not to be missed.
There were 500 copies 'distributed' to various record shops up and down the country.
You won't be able to buy one here at the gallery. No amount of bribery, threatening behaviour or cake baking will enable you to get one from us, we don't have any, so please don't ring us up!
It will take your tenacity and a bus pass if you want to find one.
So look out for one at a record shop near you and good luck.
See how it was done.
