Buy Banksy Bomb Middle England Signed & Unsigned Print

Much like Weston-Super-Mare, Banksy’s Bomb Middle England (or Bombing Middle England) sees the artist take aim at the middle classes using imagery which subverts the archetypical, village-life game of bowls - often associated with the elderly and the middle classes. Created in 2003, a unique version of the artwork was created with spray paint and acrylic paint on plywood, was auctioned in 2007 at Sotheby’s for the £102,000 GBP which set a record at the time for the highest valued Banksy work at auction! 

The artwork depicts three middle class, older ladies playing a traditional game of bowls and is executed in the artist’s famous stencil style. Behind the lead image are two, strong green bands inspired by the neat, green grass on which the game is played. Humorously the artist replaces the bowls with bombs flowing across the length of the lawn. Lit and ready to explode, the bombs add menace amongst the serene group of elderly players. The tension within the piece is a superb example of how the artist draws from daily life and twists the imagery. As with many works, Bomb Middle England can be seen as a socio-political commentary where the artist explores the indifference of the middle class. Blindly tossing bombs not bowls, they are blind to the destruction and chaos that they have the capacity to wreak.
