Banksy biography translated into Croatian

The biography of anonymous street artist Banksy, titled “Banksy: Ulica i mit” (Banksy: Street and Myth), has been released in a Croatian translation by Rockmark. Written by art historian Ulrich Blanché, the nearly 250-page book explores the phenomenon of Banksy, tracing his origins in the Bristol graffiti scene to his status as a global cultural icon.

The book examines the intersection of Banksy’s creativity, anonymity, and public image, addressing questions regarding his connection to Robert Del Naja of Massive Attack and whether his identity was revealed by Reuters earlier this year. It also analyzes the relationship between street art, media attention, and the international art market.

A book promotion featuring author Ulrich Blanché is scheduled to take place at the Interliber book fair on Saturday, November 14. The work includes a selection of photographs of Banksy’s works at their original locations and features a foreword by Zagreb-based graffiti artist Krešimir Golubić, known as Leon GSK.
