Today we dip our toes into what makes Banksy (the most/least famous artist alive) Banksy.
Since his identity has been leaked through an ongoing court case people now think they have the answer to the age-old question "Who is Banksy?", but they couldn't be further from the truth.
In today's video, we take a peek into what makes Banksy special, what he's accomplished over the past few decades, and why he might be the most interesting artist of our generation, all while remaining uncatchable, yet so unavoidable at the same time. - Zábava

Hi i love your content and when i discovered your channel i binged watched all of your videos and i also truly appreciate this video
Thank you so much you give me hope that one day this app will be truly enjoyable.❤
To much time spent on sponsorship, you did good work, its good, good.......
Thank you for the heads up on the documentary it's everything you said it was
That one guy saying "We might even make him go bankrupt" before laughing like an evil villain just showed how much more banksy was prolly not the bad guy-
😂 I agree he can bankrupt me for a slap the muppet 😅
he's a vandal and will end up in prison with all the bad guys like him
I know... What a bad twat !! 😠😡🤬
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
@@highestpeeqs9532 still waiting...
1:57 is actually sick. That's actually crazy how a large corporation would literally be considering bankrupting a guy, and laughing at the thought of it.

It's really not that crazy large corporations always prioritize profits over morals
@@SAMPLETEXT285they never make it explicit
@@highestpeeqs9532 no one asked. Imma keep sinning or else jesus died for nothing. If he comes back imma tell him to light this blunt for me.
@@highestpeeqs9532 shut up
My high school english teacher spent half the year solely on studying Banksy. So glad he did that. The stuff Banksy does is inspiring and never stale.
My high school art teacher gave us a few lessons on Banksy (i already knew about him at the time). I just thought it was kinda funny how at the time i did a piece making fun of sensationalized article titles in a collage, but she got very mad saying it was not appropriate, and i could not hand it in. While she was a few lessons earlier talking about Banksy and how much she liked his art.
Hypocrisy is real crazy.
how can it be "never stale" when almost everything he's ever done is a straight up copy of something done in the 90s by "blek le rat" all over France.
@@DecertoMeti And what are you doing of similar significance?
Inpsiring and never stale? He just copies other people and has no style of his own. Just Google Blek Le Rat.
@@justneil6885 Are you going out yourself, at night, making sculptures, and producing templates like he is? I’d like to see your work comparable to his
I am from Bristol, the home city of Banksy. His art is everywhere here and everyone loves him. He originally told people who he was until he became famous, and the few people who know who he is are happy to keep the secret. We have a friend, he's really nice. And after a while I was told he is one of the people who knows who Banksy is.
It would ruin the magic if we knew who he was, so i'm happy to just wonder who he is :)
No, it would ruin the illusion that he's still some kind of rebel. He's completely establishment and 'on message'.
I know a fella who went to school with him who's was with a crew call the mutoid waste crew later on they both grew up in a anti establishment anti corporate environment lots of creatives around them, regular ups and downs of trying to live life alternatively, good people
I know another fella who stopped him getting mugged when he was 14 years old but kept his fags in St Paul's he was already writing then in the 80s the fella who helped him went on to tour with tricky and was also prt of that Bristol music scene with Portishead and massive attack, so people from his era know who he is there's a few of em
He is actually a normal bloke, a highly intelligent, very creative but basically normal bloke, with a very beautiful Russian wife apparently.... his art says much more than anyone could ever really say about him anyway and I'm very glad for it been in the world and making me not feel alone with my thoughts and inspiring me to believe its worth understanding what's going on even if your not able to change it all.
Its not a secret, I know who he is, I dont go around stating who he is, he went to my school and I know several people who know him, but really anyone with an internet connection and a brain could work out who he is.
I also think he got a lot of his style from a French artist from Paris, and I think I may even know why he would have been exposed to the street art in Paris via trips that our School used to run. People build and bolt on a lot of mystery , and Banksy (and later the group that adopted the name, which was the original Banksy and many of his friends) really used that mystique and gossip.
I have to applaud them, and him, knowing some of the truth of the situation they really have performed much smoke and mirrors , mostly by just letting rumours spread and distort

@@highestpeeqs9532 "Please do that in your room. Behind closed doors." C. Hitchens (pre-wet brained pivot).
It's wild that an artist like this is considered a criminal. Feels like such a dystopian thing, where art and truth are shunned and punished.
I'm not quite halfway into the video though so maybe my opinion will change, but so far I'm rooting for the guy.
I know another artist who is criminal
If someone comes and spray paints your building without you asking that is a crime regardless of how good your art is...
How come this guy shouldn't be a criminal but all the graffiti artists commiting the same crimes as he does still are? Making stencils and using them on a wall takes alot less skill than mastering what the best of these real graffiti artists do
It’s wild that you think the fact that crimes are illegal is dystopian
@@giginewtyeah well i think his art is good, simple as. If thye make good art too, shouldnt be a crime either. Only if the art is ass. I mean i get that isnt the most morally sound argument, i just dont care
Man i remember photographing a banksy piece a few years back thinking it was casual street art when walking to a corner store not realising it was popular and seeing it pop up onto the news a few weeks later. Its genuinely surprising and happy that these pieces are for the world to share and not locked up in a museum for only certain people
The fact he is trolling the establishment adds up to my admiration.
Real art has always been revolucionary. Arts are to make us feel and question about ourselves as societies.
holy hell, that guy laughing as he says that they might even take action to bankrupt banksy makes me sick, he lacks humanity, he's got as much of a soul as he's got charity in his mind, absolutely none, i've barely started the video and i'm already fuming
Totally agree that corpo guy is a shithead.
He is one soulless piece of💩 "People" like that truly disgust me !
but youd like to see that happen to people who paint trains and do real graff i bet
@@qehb1 no one deserves to be bankrupt I'm afraid, no matter who you are. Especially by already big companies, all they have is greed in their souls

what are you yapping about@@highestpeeqs9532
@@highestpeeqs9532 noone cares
Banksy even influenced me and my boys here in Germany back in the day he was the reason I fell in love with graffiti and the message you can send with that. You will never understand the feeling of painting a whole piece the size of an elephant and then disappear and hide from the cops for hours or run like a maniac through the mall while changing your outfit to bamboozle them. Graffiti is art and graffiti is life there is nothing that can change your mind if you fall in love with that.
Was geht Bro. Wo macht ihr denn Graffiti in Deutschland? Meine Crew und ich sind jetzt seit 9 Jahren in München unterwegs
Sick bro :) ich hab paat mal getagged aber nicht aktiv. trotzdem nice andere zu bemerken die es auch tun

Imagine you bought it
Holy fucking shit. The chills I got at watching this video. I am probably one of many who didn't know who Banksy was before this video, but after seeing it, I see a brand new light in the beauty of graffiti and art. I really do wish Banksy's vision becomes a reality. The world being a colorful party sounds way better than what it is now.
Thank you Brandon. Your talent, your editing, your skills, are literally beyond anything I've ever seen. Keep this shit up. You've inspired me and countless people to tell captivating narratives the way you do. You rock dude.
Banksy is very well known, surprising how you’ve never heard of him.
@@ramens Yeah I am too! This kind of shit is right up my alley yet I just somehow didn't hear of him until this video haha
@@SincerelyScribe I dont have respect for banksy since he sprayed over an iconic King robbo piece.
@@delinquent6241 brug he paid respect after that beef lmao
The dude is a prolific vandal and will end up where he belongs "in prison" with all his rat mates once the court oust him out.
I know im gonna sound like a huge nerd rn but most people dont call banksy a graffiti artist, hes generally just called a street artist or an artist bc graffiti isnt murals or anything like traditional art ( if u can call it art ) its based around letters.
Anything created by humans is art, the question is whether a viewer likes it, understands it, or finds value in it. All art is subjective. Just look at the many people commenting here who think what Banksy does isn't art (they're wrong). They can say they don't like it, or they don't understand it, but they cannot say something "isn't art" simply because they're ignorant. There's no such thing as "bad art", there's just art that you or I don't understand or can't appreciate.
@@ct5625 uh huh, uh huh, great point but you're missing the original point. regardless of whether you believe banksy's work to be art or not, hes still not a graffiti artist. he used to be when he first started and some of his old tags can still be seen around bristol but he is now a street artist and a hated one at that (at least by the graffiti scene).
I get it but grafitti is a word bro, language is just as dynamic as our lives. Discussing meaning of words is just as useless as discussing if orange is more red or yellow
Graffiti by definition is street art regardless. The only reason you wouldn’t call him a writer is because of his constant use of stencils
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
The quote at the end made me cry. Art is so beautiful and our world is too focused on cost to see its beauty.
There is nothing beautiful about banksy's "art"
@@corail53 you seem very pleasant
Now I can very vividly see the influence Banksy has on Brandon’s style of editing. It all makes sense now.
do yk what program brandon and steinful uses for editing
I used Banksy's panda bear with guns art as a user icon as soon as forums were invented and I was able to use the internet, which evolved into my current icon I made myself. Banksy is frieakin' awesome.
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
@@highestpeeqs9532can you stop spamming
banksy's greatest achievement is allowing people to believe hes not more than 1 person
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
@@highestpeeqs9532I shall not! Is the threat of a made up ghost meant to scare people?
He is not more than one person 😂 wtf are you talking about?
@@ihavebeenben People helped him out, if he didn't have people to help him he wouldn't have stayed as anonymous for as long as he did. He may have done the art himself but people helped cover him so the cops didn't get him, people didn't get pictures of him, and to help out with some of his art (e.g. the old man with the shop)
@@sp_ikes that does not make banksy more than one person you silly goose
I used to know a lot about Banksy years ago, as a young artist he was an inspiration. But then he fell from the public eye and my view, at least where I’m from.
Hearing that guy at the beginning saying he’s going to bankrupt Banksy then laughing, well that made me disgusted.
I’m glad I got recommended this video :]
For people who dont know, Guess is the company that sued banksy; their founder was involved in a 30 million dollar court case in which he turned a blind eye to the CoFounder treating the models of their clothing like his personal harem.
Banksy did the right thing, the system is there to protect the wrong people.
Banksy's art holds a mirror and highlights all of the ugly flaws society and governments try to hide. The man is genius and I hope he continues.
Hardly a genius, more of a copy cat and rip off artist.
Not really but sure.
Just google Blek Le Rat@@corail53

@highestpeeqs9532 If you rise from the dead what does that make you??? Jesus is a Zombie
I’m quite lucky to see some of his art pieces when no one knew about them , in about 2016 I saw a piece of art and became fascinated with him , I love his morals and what he stands for, great video 😊
Stencil graffiti on other peoples property? Not the best morals out there especially since he is the "establishment" now and its all about making money.,
@@corail53 it’s not about making money at all, he literally shredded his art
@@corail53 why are you so desperate to go around copy and pasting the same ignorant message on everyone's comments? bit ironic when you call him unoriginal.
Banksy is probably the most interesting artist alive and I wish his identity wasn't revealed
Why? His art is uninspired and is basically just the establishment now. There is nothing profound about it and its mostly for the money these days.
Yeah, right !🙄
Jesus loves yall, died for us, and rose again! Jesus calls for all of us to repent! He's coming back
@@corail53uninspired to those who feel attacked by his work. you wouldn’t know antiestablishment if it smacked you in the face.
Man this guy is living life on the edge. Would love to have a life as exciting as his in doing hobbies you love while going around exploring the world.
I’ve always heard about him but I’ve never learned much about him and this video was beautiful. I don’t need to know what his real identity is, because that’s the point. Thanks for the great video as always!
You haven't hit 1 million subs yet?! I've been watching you since you dropped the VRChat predator video, and your work is amazing, bro. You're going to hit a million one day-I believe in you.
i LOVE the ammount of work you put into your videos, i love the way you clip them and the storytelling, keeping people captivated, its crazy
Before i was into graffiti myself i had always heard of him but always make an annual search of who he is. Now i know that just knowing that info will ruin graffiti for me. Banksy is the reason i use stencils and the reason ive never been caught since my original tag i made when i was 12 but never used properly on the street until 2 years later. I still constantly use his art as a boost too what i can do.
i remember when you just POPPED UP and i watched your first video which was awesome... and they still are! (am addicted) keep going man :D
all it takes is skill and a sprinkle of luck
there were rumours about Banksy being Robert Del Naja from Massive Attack, cos both make graffity and graphic art and are from Bristol... But that simply is a coincidence
😋
Yknow I don’t think I need to know who “Banksy” is, because I do already know. Banksy is Banksy a man born in Bristol uk who decided to make some art.
I’m glad that one of my favorite artists is being explained by one of my favorite CZcamsrs haha
Dude this video is better than most documentaries. I just watched your other videos, this one is definitely my favorite. This is amazing for a “CZcams video”
As a teen I got into graffiti through a friend in my school who introduced me to other artists in the school and then found Banksy and learned about a lot of proper artists from the game mark eckos getting up. I was part of a crew of school friends that went around doing art together. All City Vandals was our name and the tags we used and the pieces we used to do were infamous in my school/area and with other artists from our area. We'd stay up till stupid o'clock in the morning and then go out and hit up spots we had been peeping. We used to go to the train yard in my home town and hit the trains that were due to pull out for the morning, we'd tag every surface we saw and we even had rival graffiti crews we beefed with that we would v line out and spray over. Damn dude I miss those days so much 😆
"Imagine a city like that and then stop leaning against the wall... Its wet."
love your editing style man, really good stuff
Again brandon dropped another master piece and even if others take his videos not the way intended we the real following will always get him
loving the music in the recent vids, i listen to a lot of quadeca and joji in my own time but it fits the vibe so well for your style
Im so glad there is something new from you and its about someone so important. I love you man, keep up the great work
Your videos are so good. Thank you for uploading this quality content.
thx for encoding this video properly, it looks stunning on my 21:9 monitor :)
95-99% of your viewers wont notice that you did it 'the right way' vs just doing 16:9 w/ black bars, but the few that do will be extreme appreciative that they dont have to watch the vid with double black bars that YT would add on the sides..
I was shown this Doc when I was in Highschool. I already knew of Banksy by then but this doc made me fall in love. I never want to know his name. Banksy is Banksy and Through the Giftshop is the best Doc I've ever seen.
I hope he never stops creating art
I am blown away by the visuals and the way you go through the timeline. Great work
OMG IVE BEEN EXCITED FOR A NEW VIDEO OF URS TY BRANDON!!!!! :D
I always found graffiti inspiring whether it’d be random tags or murals. This stuff should never be considered criminal, as it is a form of expression that does no harm. The art is always in a sense “eye candy”, and should be treated with the same respect as any other painting. Banks helped support this fact, which is why I like his art and narrative so much.
Defacing property that isnt yours with art that has no meaning shouldnt be legal. Banksys art actually stood for something, not just a quick tag on someones local busines.
Yeah and his wack stencilart shouldn’t be considered graffiti either
@@ConnorAE You have no meaning ! Hypocrite ! Who are you to say that other people's art don't stand for something.🤡
Beautiful Video as always. Really nice editing and ideas for effects!
There were plenty of people doing stencils before Banksy. Blek Le Rat is a perfect example
Banksy stole Blek Le Rats entire art style

i loved the editing and use of music!
I love your videos - the disrup[TV] style and your narration, the editing and much more - fantastic, please continue and dont let anyone f*** you over like in disrupts case - stay safe and trust no one.
this was top tier. i expected you to have way more subs than you do (about 200k rn). you’ve got a great future as a film maker, keep it up!!!!!
Incredible video. Captivating and Informative. Interesting and entertaining. Great editing keep up the good work 👍
This video is a MASTERPIECE!!!!
People underestimate how much effort and skill is required to craft such wonderous videos, even potentially to sacrificing video revenue with copyright music JUST TO MAKE A BETTER VIDEO.
You are a legend.
This is an incredible video man!
I was really glad you didn’t lift the veil, despite it being obvious to most who have followed his exploits, it would have been an easy thing to do to get more clicks, so kudos to you and your very watchable beautifully edited film. Look forward to watching more .
By far most underrated youtuber i know
This was great mate. I’ve always felt that Banksy, as the fame grew, morphed into a network of likeminded and highly trusted individuals working under the moniker Banksy. I could be wrong of course, but many of the ‘stunts’ and ‘pieces’ we see require a team of people to pull off, too big for one individual. That’s my opinion of course.
Another banger, I just wish your vids were longer, cuz i can dead ass watch them for ages lol. Keep it up boss
Ive only saw his work a few times growing up, i never once heard of him tho. But now.. Im glad i know who made those few art works that made me freeze in my tracks and stare in awe of their message.
wake up new Brandon FM video just dropped
Sleep time when he upload
Wake up call received
I was waiting for the next video- HELL YEAH!
Its a good day when brandon uploads
You are currently one of my favourite CZcamsrs, your content is crazy
amazing video, super high quality! new sub for sure. (also a quadeca fan I see)

Not only is the story you told great, but you yourself presented this wonderfully…
You are amazing, I’ve been loving the videos.

Bro your videos are phenomenal
when brandom fm said "oh shit, not again"
felt that..
Hey man, I absolutely love your videos, they‘re informative, objective, well explained and overall nice to watch, keep it up really ‼️ And I wanted to ask if you could make a video about scientology, I think it would fit your type of content you make very well as you‘ve done some cult explained videos in the past.
This guy has some good art. One of the few modern artists that actually has a solid base for their work.
Me and my neighbor got into graffiti and street art when we were younger and man banksy was a living legend to me
*was*
Sometimes, the algorithm throws up some right crap and then a little gem of a channel is hidden amongst it all, this is that channel! Watched all your episodes today. Also, You and 'James Jani' would make a great collaboration.
my fav doc about banksy so far
One of the best video, i've seen on this platform ❤
thank you really much, I have a school thing to do about Banksy and it really helped!!! :D
Definitely my favorite artist. His work is incredible.🤠
bro i just finished this video and i really have to say, the music choice is on POINT.
The true Banksy were the artworks we found along the way.
The editing of this is INSANE🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Well done, what a great video. ❤
They would have X-rayed that picture. That auction house is one of the most thorough in the world. They knew and were in cahoots.
For anyone wondering the outro song in cut and run is Reverie in a Heartbeat by Franz Gordon
This is a really beautiful film 😍 I will be checking out more of your videos 👍
BABE WAKE UP BRANDON FM JUST POSTED!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥
bro this editing is FIREE
You actually cooked underrated as fuck
It feels illegal to watch underrated youtuber who makes high quality documentary worth 10milion subs...
Great video and editing would love to learn it as a beginner
Graffiti and Street art is N O T the same
All art is subjective, but I tend to agree on a personal level.
I find no value in a scribbled name that I cannot even read. It's noise that people drown out. It has no meaning for me.
A mural or a sculpture with intent, on the other hand, is notable and appreciated by millions, clearly.
It's all "technically" art, but the value of it (artistically, not monetarily) is not comparable.
@@ct5625 its not about what is better its more about Street art is hated in the graffiti sence so Banksy being called a graffiti artist is not true. Sure he uses spray paint and all but he is not a graffiti whriter. not to mention the infamuse King robo vs banksy witch is mostly why Bansky and Street art is so hated in the graffiti Sence
holy shit bro the use of quadecas easier sent chills down my spine this is an amazing video good shit
Awesome content and editing bro.
another banger love the vid and the cgi, animation s/o to your crew!!!
another amazing video ❤
Wouldn't it be really easy for the government to find him.of they really wanted? I mean, he sold several art pieces and money is trackable.
Genuinely one of the best thumbnails ever
Great mini-documentary yourself mate, well done.
