  • Banksy I Fought the Law Meaning & History

    The image used in the work is inspired by the would-be assassination of U.S President Ronald Regan.

    Released in 2004, Banksy’s I Fought the Law was produced in a signed edition of 150 and an unsigned edition of 500 as well as a set of 32 Artist Proofs (8  orange, 8 pink, 8 yellow, 8 red). The central image for the work is inspired by the shocking footage of the attempted assassination attempt of U.S President Ronald Regan by John Hinkley. Hinkley, diagnosed as a delusional schizophrenic, believed that actress Jodi Foster would be impressed with him if he killed the President. In total, five shots were fired with no casualties.
    Laying wounded, pinned down by armed CIA agents, Hinkley casts a macabre and sinister figure as the full force of his rebellion is crushed by the state. Nullified, the would-be assassin has attempted to fight the law (a reference to the 1979 Clash song of the same name) and lays paralised - grievous action failed as the establishment takes over.
