Meaning & Analysis
Banksy's Trolley Hunters is a monochrome screen print from an unsigned edition of 500 released in 2007, after the earlier release of mostly unsigned prints released in 2005 for his Barely Legal show. The artwork features three cavemen hunting a herd of supermarket trolleys, highlighting our subjugation to consumerism.
This artwork is mocking mankind’s current lack of ability to hunt and provide for ourselves – while there are still humans out there who have these skills, yet us in the ‘civilized world’ are unwilling, and unable, to provide for ourselves.
The Banksy print Trolleys (or Trolley Hunters) was originally released as part of the LA edition accompanying Banksy’s Barely Legal show in 2006. This first incarnation of Trolleys was unsigned and numbered out of 500. There are a limited number of signed prints from the LA Edition in circulation (low edition numbers and proofs), but these didn’t go on general sale.
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.
