Banksy: The Man Behind The Wall by William Ellsworth-Jones

We we recently gifted this book, and we dove right in.  Either you love Banksy or you hate him, we definitely dig his work, and enjoyed reading about his rise to art royalty.  There are a ton of different ideas covered in this book, from Banksy's beginnings as an artist, to how his shows are set up, people stealing his walls and selling them, forgeries of his work, and of course his Oscar nominated film Exit Through The Gift shop.

Ellsworth-Jones makes no effort to unmask the famously anonymous Banksy, and even still this book was not authorized by Banksy or his company Pest Control.  Either way, it's a fascinating read.  Pick it up here.

Let us know if you have a book we should read or just recommend something!
