■Banksy in New York■

Banksy in New York is a firsthand account of his residency, including the defacement and removal of his works, the reactions of neighbors and building owners, and the interactions between Banksy’s fans and opponents. The author draws on his extensive knowledge of New York street art and graffiti to assess the impact of Banksy’s work from a cultural and art historical perspective. Mock is both a fan and a critic of the artist, and he provides insightful and humorous accounts in the form of personal narratives. While paying tribute to Banksy’s wit and creativity, he challenges the artist and his detractors to consider the true impact of his work.
The hardcover edition of Banksy in New York features more than 140 photographs and illustrations on 128 pages and a new foreword by Jaime Rojo and Stephen P. Harrington, founders of Brooklyn Street Art.
