Banksy

The Art of Banksy, the touring exhibition of works attributed to the anonymous British street artist, has returned to Atlanta. As Atlanta Magazine notes in its review, the show continues without the artist's approval, as it has throughout its run. The unauthorized status remains a point of discussion around the exhibition, alongside questions about how the unapproved display affects the experience of Banksy's work.

Banksy has installed a new statue in London depicting a man walking blindly, his vision obscured by a flag. The work is being read as a critique of blind nationalism, with commentary circulating online stressing that love of country should not mean surrendering one's conscience, questions or judgment. The piece has sparked discussion about patriotism and political critique.
