description Street claimer, saboteur in the shadows. A simple name, a signature, a hooded figure. An attitude and aesthetic positioning always recognizable, recurrent, impertinent. The present paper overtake the work of the so-called artist known as Banksy, bordering (by means of graffiti culture) the phenomenom known as street art, a word that describes a great range of different contemporary artistic manifestations that takes place in the everyday public space, a space seen as a privileged environment for expression, a perfect place for appearances and insubordinations. By focusing the plural work of Banksy artist without a face, calculated incognita we aim to recognize the different traces and implications raised by the street art practices, seen as a important manifestation within the contemporary artistic world, trying to track the work political and nonconformist, reflective and irreverent, rebelious and criminal of an artist as slender as the rats he paint over the walls, as slender as any graffiti artist of anywhere taking his place in the shadows to leave his scribbles, claiming for his voice, his place between the walls that separate and suffocate us. Art terrorist, art as a crime, crime as an art.
