Banksy

If you already haven't heard of Banksy, I would check out some of his work. British street artist Banksy's identity is still a mystery but his work is certainly not. He is known for his controversial work but then the work that he does sell, goes for thousands. There is something very intriguing about not knowing someones identity. You are not able to tell what type of person they may be or they seem like and something about that is interesting. Banksy has currently been in New York City and everyday of October, he promised a new design. He didn't disappoint but many of his pieces can be very controversial. Whilst in NYC, he set up a booth of original artwork and pretended to sell it as fake. The pieces worth up to $60,000 (some more) went for $50. Only few bought the pieces but you can check out the video here:
