Silver has shown an even slower increase, on average 1.20% between 20 and an overall decline of 1.42% within the timeframe of 2010-2020. A classic case of low-risk low-return investment, the gold market promises a much slower growth than the stunning rate at which Banksy’s rats jumped to ten times their 2008 prices by 2020. Investment returns on gold have picked up between 20 by 8.26%, but looking at the bigger picture, growth between 20 has progressed at a much slower rate, 2.50%, with some fluctuations between 20. The prices of Banksy’s works, on the other hand has shown a steady increase and will progress to do so due to the artist’s regular output and rapidly growing popularity on the art market. Between 20 it dropped by 6.24% and is continuously fluctuating, influenced by various unpredictable geopolitical factors. Banksy also said, “If you feel dirty, insignificant or unloved, then rats are a good role model.Oil might be one of the most conventional modes of investment, however, figures by S&P GSCI between 2010 to 2020 show the average annual return on crude oil dropping by 10.48%. The rats can also be read as a metaphor for the unstoppable force from the streets that is graffiti. He said, “The son of a photocopier technician, trained as a butcher but became involved in graffiti art during the great Bristol aerosol boom of the late 1980s.” Banksy’s rats are one of his most recognizable motifs from early in his career and are a nod to Blek Le Rat, a famous graffiti artist in France who Banksy was inspired by. According to Tristan Manco - a street art expert - Banksy was born in 1974 and raised in Bristol, England.
His style and political messages have, ironically, been wholeheartedly embraced by the very type of people he mocks.ĭespite his renown, Banksy’s identity is still shrouded in mystery. Banksy has gone from a teenage tagger to a well-known artist making multi-million dollar art which is often imitated but never duplicated. Blek le Rat (Xavier Prou, Paris 1951) is one of the pioneers of international Street Art and is considered the father of Stencil Art and a reference point for all subsequent street artists, including Banksy. He’s especially known for his stencil art style and satirical artworks which often take on topics such as politics, culture, and ethics. Banksy is an anonymous British artist specializing in graffiti street art.
