Banksy Kate Moss Meaning & History
In 2011, it was rumoured that Banksy gifted a unique version to the supermodel as a wedding gift.
Strike a pose! The colourful and bright work, Kate by Banksy was originally created in 2006 and released as an edition of signed prints. A further series was produced of 20 prints in a range of bright colours: 20 pink, 20 hot pink, 20 purple, 20 green, 20 apricot/gold and 20 blue/grey as well as a rate edition of 12 Artists Proofs.
Paying homage to Andy Warhol’s Marilyn, the work features British supermodel Kate Moss as the subject of the work. Moss, who herself is a globally recognised figure, is treated like a modern-day Madonna in the rare work. A pastiche of pop-art or a commentary on modern icons and celebrity? In 2011, it was rumoured that Banksy gifted a unique version to the supermodel as a wedding gift where she mysteriously discovered the work in the bathroom of her hotel with no sign of entry or exit...Kate is one of the few Banksy portrait works - the artist usually preferring full figures or scenes. Other notable examples include Turf War that features Winston Churchill, Rude Copper and the subversive Monkey Queen. Explore Banksy prints for sale.
