“Saving Banksy” documents this true story and explores the evolution of graffiti into street art and the growing practice of art dealers removing street art and selling it without the artists permission. The question is what is going to happen to the Banksy rat? With local museums turning down the free Banksy and a New York gallerist, who has made it his business model to remove Banksy street works from all over the globe, doing whatever it takes to get the Rat in his possession.
One art collector saves a Banksy piece from being destroyed with the request that he doesn’t sell the artwork and uses it to promote conversation.
However, Banksy’s art was quickly destroyed by local writers and authorities wanting to remove the “vandalism”.
Internationally known graffiti artist, Banksy, left his mark on San Francisco in April 2010.
