According to organizers, these pieces include prints, canvases, screenprints, sculptures, hand-drawn sketches, and limited-edition pieces.

There are also video testimonials by “a close associate of Banksy” who worked on prints of iconic images with the artist, per organizers.

“The most expensive piece in this collection is Banksy’s Mona Lisa, a signed but previously unknown work that was originally bought directly from the artist by a Hollywood A-list actor, who is a personal friend of Banksy,” shares organizers in a press release.

“The owner of this painting has been buying art direct from the artist and now boasts a collection that includes works specially commissioned for him that are unknown to the public. In 2022, he returned the Mona Lisa to Banksy who then developed the painting further to create a brand-new artwork that incorporated the original. This painting is on loan to The Art of Banksy collection for a limited time only.”

Fans are encouraged to sign up for priority tickets online. Tickets go on sale March 23rd, 2024.

The exhibit will be held at the Lighthouse Artspace Toronto.
