For this edition, José took inspiration from the culture of writers in New York. The term “benching” comes from that place — the main purpose of the Writer’s Bench was to watch the trains that had been freshly painted, to meet other artists, exchange black books, sometimes to even settle an argument. José says of the piece, “I think of this work as an homage to the culture of writers in New York. When making the work, I imagined the layers of the billboards in subway stations and I was inspired by the colours and collage elements often seen on the billboards on the platforms themselves.”

- Banksy Walled Off Hotel Box Set 2019 Box Framed With Different Colors Unique WOHBy BanksyLocated in Draper, UTPerhaps the most famous figure in street art working today, Banksy is known for urban interventions that demonstrate irreverent wit and a biting political edge. Enhancing his mystique by maintaining an anonymous identity, the artist has modified street signs, illegally printed his own currency, and illicitly hung his own work in the Louvre and the Museum of Modern Art. He often uses spray paint and stencils in his critiques of consumerism, political authority, terrorism, and the status of art and its display. His street art, installations, and studio-produced works have been shown in Los Angeles, New York, London, Bethlehem, and beyond. His art has been subject to widespread interest on the secondary market and has fetched eight figures at auction. Walled Off Hotel Box Set...Category
