Banksy Myths & Legends is a book of tall tales, urban legends and the occasional true story that surround the anonymous street artist.

Banksy has always been shrouded in mystery and this little black book by Marc Leverton explores the myths and legends that surround this anonymous street artist.

This new edition (Vol 3.) covers the years 2015-2023. During this period Banksy has adapted his approach to attempt to be one step ahead of the profiteers who attack, or cut out his popular street work. There are still street pieces, often designed to be temporary or hard to access (boats, bridges even a hospital). The artist has also created events (Dismaland, the Sotheby's shredding incident), shops (Gross Domestic Product shop) and tours (Staycation). He has also taken his work into conflict zones (Ukraine, Syria and Calais 'Jungle').

The writer collects the stories from contacts and friends in Bristol and Banksy fans worldwide. The small black book format is an homage to Banksy's own first books which are now out of print. All volumes reproduce high quality images of Banksy's street work and other items of interest to Banksy fans.
