The show delivers a genuinely impressive experience and is a “must see” to celebrate or learn about his art. Other highlights include “Dismaland” installations from Banksy’s 2015 pop-up Bemusement Park, prints of “Flower Thrower” and “Kissing Coppers,” and the sculpture “Phone Booth.” Other surprises include a section dedicated to Banksy’s activism related to immigrants and an “infinity room” addressing politics.
The Art of Banksy Without Limits is not only an exhibition but a show with a philosophy as Banksy loves to provoke, shock, and even disturb society.” “He does it with humour and poetry indeed. Banksy has the unique ability to express through his works some truths that most people don’t have the courage to say out loud. And, nowadays, we need to be sincere, empathetic, and caring to one another more than ever. This is what Banksy’s art does: it has the power to unite people, ideas, values that can change the world for the better. Through The Art of Banksy: ‘Without Limits’ our mission is to present the truth about Banksy’s art and to carry his powerful message into the world.”
As part of the exhibition, is a unique installation featuring a room dedicated to Ukraine that features Banksy’s interventions made in an area bombed in the war with Russia. Visitors have the option to make donations, a little help for Ukraine. More information can be found at www.vvolunteer.com.br.
