In the organizer's words:
After Barcelona, Budapest, Krakow, Dubai, Naples, Prague, Lisbon, Paris and New York, The World of Banksy is now coming to Germany for the first time! With over 2.5 million visitors, this exhibition offers an exciting journey into the world of the enigmatic artist, known for his ironic take on political and social issues. The World of Banksy, a tribute to the genius of street art, will be presented from May 2025 at Schadowstraße 17-21 (former Esprit store), Schadow Arkaden Düsseldorf.
What can you expect in The World of Banksy?
The exhibition follows Banksy's famous motto: "Copyright is for losers" and is presented as a 100% unauthorized experience.
While Banksy's original works are rarely accessible to the public, the impressive reproductions in this exhibition remain true to the identity and unique style of the anonymous artist. This makes it far more than an exhibition - it is a tribute!
Alongside Ozone Angel, Steve Jobs, Napoleon and Flower Thrower, the works that made Banksy a global icon, over 100 of his most iconic artworks are presented. Graffiti, photographs, installations and prints on various materials are exhibited in an impressive staging that highlights his social messages.
In addition, the exhibition features a special video section highlighting the history and significance of Banksy's famous artworks from around the world.
Who is Banksy?
Banksy is the most famous but still mysterious street artist in the world. He was born in Bristol and is estimated to be between 40 and 45 years old, but his true identity remains unknown. Despite this anonymity, Banksy is one of the most valuable artists of our time.
In 2010, Time magazine included him in its list of the 100 most influential people in the world - alongside Barack Obama, Steve Jobs and Lady Gaga.
Through his art, Banksy questions how economic and political interests oppress the common good, raising awareness of the problems of modern society. With metaphorical, humorous, provocative and visually striking images, he draws attention to issues such as consumer culture, war and power structures, thus creating a strong social awareness.
