Meaning & Analysis

The print comes in an edition size of 5 and pays homage to Andy Warhol's screen prints of the iconic actress and symbol of feminine beauty, Marilyn Monroe. The limited edition screen print was produced in six different colour ways and resonates strongly with Warhol’s Pop Art stye which was characterised by his use of bright and bold colours and the screen printing technique.

In Kate Moss, Banksy borrows Pop Art’s concept of blurring the lines between ‘high’ and ‘low’ art, as well as framing familiar items and images of celebrities from mainstream media as contemporary art. Banksy subverts these ideas even further by appropriating Warhol’s now historic and esteemed visual language.

Banksy is well known for reinterpreting other artists' work. Notable examples of this are Choose Your Weapon featuring Keith Haring’s dog and Keep it Spotless featuring Damien Hirst's quintessential spots. The Kate Moss prints are one of Banksy’s most desirable works for sale, with auction prices for the prints reaching as high as six figures for some works.

In 2011 the Kate Moss series inspired Banksy to create a unique version of the print for Kate Moss herself while she was on her honeymoon. It is not known who commissioned the work but likely to have been someone from Moss’ inner circle.

  • Renowned British street artist, Banksy, is the enigmatic figure behind some of the most subversive works in the Urban Art scene. Despite his anonymity, the artists' disruptive stunts have not only gained him notoriety, but they have vocalised his stance on many social and political issues. As seen with the likes of Girl With Balloon and Napalm, Banksy uses his distinctive stencil technique to produce thought-provoking commentaries on challenging themes. The showcase of rebellion that lines his work has caused his secondary market value to soar in recent years, propelling him to the top of the Urban Art scene.
