Banksy,
87 mins,
UK,
2010.
After spending years documenting famous street artists on film, Thierry Guetta becomes obsessed with finding and filming the elusive Banksy. Apparently captivated by Guetta's quest, Banksy turns the camera around to track Guetta's progress from amateur filmmaker to artist.
This lecture explores the implications of this mischievous narrative and its contribution to Banksy's persona as a political commentator and social prankster. It also focuses on the nature of representation, the commodification of art and the cult of celebrity.
