How does Banksy actually make money? Is Banksy the graffiti artist rich or is Banksy poor?
The street artist known as Banksy belongs to what is sometimes called the “Bristol Scene,” which includes creatives from different genres, notably music. You’ve probably heard of some of the artists that are or were part of this scene, including Massive Attack, Portishead and Tricky. Graffiti was also a big part of the scene, and while there were many artists around, the one you’ve all heard of is Banksy. His stenciling style is known all over the world, as are his attacks on the establishment and what he sees as human rights abuses. It’s said he was expelled from school as a kid, and took to the streets to paint on walls. No one is certain who he really is as he keeps his identity secret, although there is lots of speculation as to his real identity. But how does a disestablishment hero like Banksy actually earn a living? Welcome to this episode of the Infographics Show, How does Banksy make money?

If I were Banksy, instead of being angry of my art having great value, I would go to an estate/project full of struggling people and paint on their properties (cars, bikes, etc.) , so they can later sell it and make easy millions. It's a great way to understand capitalism and help the poor.

[@poolfert9963]

[@abuelita4094]

@@poolfert9963 Values on art isn't easily predictable. It would depend on whose selling it, and the buyers. If Banksy's art is in the ghetto, the seller could be any kind of person, from a good but struggling family to a lone druggie. They would ask for a low amount, likely, but even then an easy $2000 helps alot. Now the buyers in the other hand... there's insufferable tokenism in England, especially in the modern art community. There's a chance someone whose been graffiti'd by Banksy could take advantage of that and sell his piece for a lot for their benefit. If I had 3 hungry mouths to feed, I would. Edit: struggling*

Street art IS graffiti. A lot has a great meaning behind it but the ones you'll sometimes, and more often see, have no real meaning than just tagging. Back home , there is a great alley way as well as an underground culture for street art. São Paulo is where you find some of the greatest pictures I have seen. Banksy, however, I admire. Stands up for what's he believes in and I find myself agreeing. Art should be free to people who want to experience it and not sold just for rich people to trade here and there. Get tax right off and such. Leave street art be where people can see it and enjoy it. Where it was made to sit And be seen. Only art that should be sold is art that is specifically created to be sold. It's not a bad profession but it should only be sold with permission of the artist creating it.

Banksy is so awesome. I just love his artwork.

[@JohnDoe-gh6jz]

Thanks, infographics show I have to do this for a school exhibition.

[@akhileshsuvarna72]

I was crossing by Mangalore and I think I saw something like his work in a street . I was surprised of that work . A great piece that less recognised.

[@joshuamaxam5086]

Never really given any mind to street graffiti "artists" but for some reason when I read the name *Banksy* I was like "That's that graffiti artist" and then "wait, how did I know that?"

[@Yoshigasm]

Because of the royalties from Massive Attack. Banksy is Robert Del Naja, the front man of Massive Attack.

[@linziebuilds6426]

Thank you for this video. I knew nothing about banksy besides the quote you used "i cant believe you morons by this" i wasnt a fan of him for a long time but now seeing this i understand him and can actually enjoy his art

[@takkischitt]

First of all, Banksy is great, and I fully approve of his art and its meaning, intention and his ideology of giving his work freely, but I wish I knew more about how his art actually benefits the people the art intends to fight for. I'm sure a lot of his art which has been sold has gone into the pockets of someone who really doesn't need it, and surely not someone which the artwork was in tented to highlight/benefit. Its kind of tricky, and in NO WAY a criticism of Banksy, as his art does massively benefit the intended subject (maybe not via primary financing). And I'm pretty sure Banksy is probably extremely wealthy, certainly comfortable, so it's hard to take some of his artwork fully at its worth based on that. But let me say, again, Banksy's ideology is genius and can only be commended. His art really is true, true art and nothing, NOTHING (especially a mere KZbin comment) , can take that away from him. I just struggle to see how his art style can, primarily, do anything more than line pockets of people who don't need it. Yes, the message gets out massively, but the weak, vulnerable and desperate really could do with the financial benefits. Maybe there is something to be said for for the owners of the canvases, in regards this... but if Banksy means what he means, surely he should consider the financial aspect for the people he's highlighting.

[@aminaganovic7582]

0:19 ikr, how can there be anyone that has never heard of this guy Banksy *so ironic*

[@AttilatheThrilla]

Banksy is the legend this World needs!!

[@wahyuniantonio2938]

I was with this group many years before I come out of all groups lol I quite known their work always unique

[@bennyc6694]

I recognized Tricky from the movie Fifth Element with Bruce Willis & Chris Tucker instead of being an artist first. If there was ever a chance to own a small canvas of Banksy's work, I don't think an amount of money would make me give it up, I'd enjoy the work more than anything 🤘

[@jamemann4700]

He works a normal job ppl this is his hobby

[@DavyRo]

He is Rob del naja but he doesn't do them all himself

[@nathanbrooks2581]

Funny how art enthusiasts are suddenly ok with stealing art. It tickles me.

[@NellieFly]

Graphics are gorgeous

[@man70k]

This is the best report on Banksy , thank you

BOOOO! 👎👎

TheChuckd33 no u

[@colingreen5553]

Eyyyyy

[@MarkoTiano]

Hes putting the world gallery auctions on notice. In a way hes saying " art should not be so extremely expensive and going to the rich". The fact he went undercover to sell his pieces for 60 bucks to people also proves that he wants regular ( poor) people to make money. Hes like a Art Robin Hood.

[@louisjones4644]

I live in Wales right around the corner from where he done one of his latest pieces of art. The Ash cloud and the night before myself and my father drove past and seen him spray painting but didn't think nothing of it until it appeared on the news.

[@mauricejones410]

"What inspired you to make a second graffiti art right next to the original?" "Money."

[@twig5552]

*Paints smiley face on wall* Do you want this very artistic thing for 1.9 million dollars? It’s one of a kind and original!

[@kitteekittee4010]

This man is amazing

[@nolocationfound4371]

They remind me a lot of Basquiat when he first started his art

[@chickenpie9363]

Bruh I laughed so hard when he shredded the painting he did through the frame 😂😂 I saw it on his instagram

[@faint]

I feel like Robbo played a big part in Banksy’s Graffiti Career🤨

[@Anna-pu7hx]

For anyone that doesn't know, it's been leaked and it's pretty obvious now that Banksy is Robert del naja of massive attack. Fantastic band by the way, give them a listen

[@BritishEggz]

He shreds his own work if they get auctioned they all have special Frames
