Banksy Makes It Big In His Home Town

On 6 May, I published an article about an artist known only by the name of Banksy. He originated from Bristol and became involved in street graffiti during the Bristol aerosol boom of the late 1980s. No one, apart from a small band of friends, knows his true identity, not even his real name. His talent was born out of the Bristol underground scene, which involved artists and musicians. Incredibly, his work is now being displayed in a Bristol museum. To find out more click on the link below and watch a video clip about this amazing story.
