Reviews"Readers who have watched Exit Through the Gift Shop will discover this book provides additional perspectives on the work of the venerated artist. Students of graphic design will also find the composition of these pieces refreshing." --Rachael Dreyer, Library Journal, "For Banksy fans in the know this compact pictorial journey is distinctly delicious, a banquet of roaring images that span the early freehand technique of the 1990s to the more current stencils. These works scream clever, artistic, humorous, ironic, and socially relevant." --Rhonda Sturtz,  NY Journal of Books, "For Banksy fans in the know this compact pictorial journey is distinctly delicious, a banquet of roaring images that span the early freehand technique of the 1990s to the more current stencils. These works scream clever, artistic, humorous, ironic, and socially relevant." --Rhonda Sturtz, NY Journal of Books, "We are concerned that Banksy's street art glorifies what is essentially vandalism." --Diane Shakespeare, Keep Britain Tidy "It may be art, but it should not be permitted." --Michael Bloomberg, mayor of New York City "One original thought is worth 1000 meaningless quotes." --Banksy, "Readers who have watched Exit Through the Gift Shop will discover this book provides additional perspectives on the work of the venerated artist. Students of graphic design will also find the composition of these pieces refreshing." --Rachael Dreyer,  Library Journal
