Banksy has been sharing his radical ideas through a range of forms. His murals are perhaps the most well-known, however, he also produced a variety of original and print versions of these iconic visuals. Many of Banksy’s prints include his most recognisable designs, all disseminating his infamous anti-establishment, anti-capitalist and anti-authoritarian attitudes. 

During his early career, he released prints at a, by modern standards, shockingly low price and sold out of the boot of a car. The prints aimed to produce a limited edition release that allowed more people to own the work at a less prohibitive price. The approach to the prints was to get the ideas out there, not just make money from the works. Even with modern costs of these prints, they continue to serve as a powerful critique of societal norms, consumer culture, and authority, blending subversion with accessibility in a way that redefined modern street art. Although primary prints sales may seem contrary to Banksy's philosophy, but they help to fund the various stunts that Banksy performs, just some examples being the MV Louise Michel, a boat in the Mediterranean fully funded by Banksy that helps who are refugees travelling across the sea, and the Ukraine fundraising event, where works were sold to buy and send ambulances to help people in Ukraine.
