Banksy: King Rat (london street art)
Banksy is already a known artist, I guess…
“He is a popular icon and media hero, complete with his own website and publicist. He’s been asked to do advertisements for companies such as Nike, and Damien Hirst has bought most of the pieces in the exhibition, which are reportedly priced at more than £25,000 each (2). The fact that he remains anonymous and is wanted by the police for his graffiti simply adds to the allure.” link
Anyways, I had a very good time going through his own website and one with lots of pictures of his street art

But I guess he will be most known for placing his own work in the Metropolitan Museum in New York and attempting the same at the Tate Gallery :-)
