An NFT Artwork Could Reveal a Little More About the Identity of Banksy

"ATTACK, ATTACK, ATTACK", a non-fungible token co-signed by Unikz, a street artist from Bristol and Andrew Bayles, a photographer from Leeds (UK)


NEW YORK, Oct. 20, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- "Attack Attack Attack" is a non-fungible token for sale on OpenSea, the world's first and largest digital marketplace for crypto collectibles and NFTs. This digital creation is an artwork co-signed by Unikz, a digital artist from Bristol and Andrew Bayles, a photographer from Leeds (UK).

The two artists created a digital artwork that reveals a little more about the identity of the street artist Banksy.

This NFT is unique because it allows you to discover part of Banksy's creative process.

Indeed, the work, which is a digital video loop of 50 seconds, begins on the world-famous image of Banksy's "Rage, the Flower Thrower", then appears in overprint a photograph representing a man throwing a molotov cocktail.

This photo, taken in Leeds (UK)  in 1987, is obviously the base image that was used to make the famous Banksy stencil in 2005. Banksy has recently tried unsuccessfully to register this artwork as his personal trademark.

The photo, shot by Andrew Bayles, was published in 1987 in an anarchist newspaper produced and distributed anonymously due to the radical information it contained.

The title? "Attack Attack Attack". Only a member of the punk / anarchist movement in the late 1980s in England could have seen this image and used it later. 

The non-fungible token, certified by Verisart is available for sale on OpenSea including an original photo print signed by the artists.
